Tomorrow at this time...

Baby will be here! I can not believe it. This last part of my pregnancy has gone by so quickly and I can't believe tomorrow we will be a family of four. My C-section is scheduled for 7:30 am and so we have to be at the hospital by 5:30. I'm not too thrilled about having to be up and out of the house so early, but I have been having really bad insomnia lately and most mornings I am waking up around 4:00 anyways, so I guess it's shouldn't be too bad. Zoey is spending the night at my parents' house tonight so we won't have to worry about dropping her off in the morning.

We have been talking about the baby coming a lot lately, and Zoey seems to understand what's going on, but I'm sure she really has no idea what she is in for. She will answer the questions that we talked about, but I don't know if she really gets it. or is just repeating the info we have told her. A typical conversation will go something like this:

"What's in mommy's belly?" ----a baby

"When is the baby coming?" -----in January

"Where is mommy going to go to have the baby?" --- to the hospital

"Is the baby going to be a girl or a boy?" ---- a girl. (She is very insistent on this one, and always refers to 'she' or 'her', so it will be interesting to see if she is right)

So, she pretty much remembers all of the stuff that we have told her, and has been talking a lot about "the new baby", but I can't wait to see how she will really react once she gets to meet her new little brother/sister.



Here are a few last belly pics - with less than 12 hours to go (YIKES!). I'm being brave and even took two bare belly shots this time. Not that I love the way my bare belly looks, but I want to have them to look back on.

Who the heck ever said black is slimming?!
