The Sax Family~: 3 Weeks and Counting……almost 17 months!!!

Well….the time is near! Only 3 weeks left….or sooner! I feel like my belly is the biggest it has ever been! I still have a couple weeks left and I am bigger than I was with Madison at full term! Crazy! I have my weekly appointments now—so really it can happen at anytime!

37 weeks!

Pat is working on the baby’s room now—he has it all ready to paint. We are going to paint a light green on the walls with a bright white ceiling! The crib is here it just needs to be put together! Abby and her friend Chandler were all day Saturday helping me! We brought 4 totes up from the basement and sorted them out! 2 bins were newborn and 0-3 month baby stuff- we washed all the onesies and jammies. The other 2 bins were Madison clothes…I pulled out all the 18 month clothes, they are still a little big on her, but she has no “fall” clothes in 12 month! It was nice to have them help me….I was definitely “Nesting” My hospital bag is ready to go! I had it mostly ready last week after my MD appt, but yesterday I actually put some things in it for Pat! I don’t feel like we are “ready” but will I ever be 100% “ready”? Probably not! So, when it happens…it happens!! Had my 37 week appointment today and she said all is well!
It is just the waiting game at this point!!

Madison has NO idea what to expect! We always tell her to kiss the baby and she will lift up my shirt and kiss my belly! But in reality, it is going to be a GIANT shock for her! She has no idea what is about to happen!! But, it will be good. She will adjust well! (I hope) Lately, she is starting to get a little more of an attitude! She always had one BUT the last couple weeks, it is definitely showing more and more! Her little personality is super cute! She will be 17 months at the end of the month and she acts like she is 3! She had her 15/16 month appointment 2 weeks ago and she is 22 lbs now and is at the 60% on the chart for height! She is definitely still our little peanut! Her new favorite word is MINE! She yells MINE at the dog when gets about a foot away from ANY of her toys! Oh man, I think we have our hands full!!

The next update I am sure it will be baby news!! Keep thinking about us….especially in the next couple weeks—think about an “easily delivery”

CHEESE!
