Belly News
Rebekah wasn't quite confident enough to show the whole belly...but I think she looks beautiful. We're 36 weeks, tomorrow! That means only 28 days left...although we're expecting less. Rebekah had her cardiologist appointment, today. She does suffer from a speedy heartbeat, but they won't deal with it until several weeks after the baby is born. For now, neither Rebekah nor the baby are in immediate danger.We'll get baby stats and more pictures on Friday!
Until then...we're all packed and ready to go! The uber-cute (If-I-do-so-say-myself), blue folder houses all of our maps, directions, addresses, and important phone numbers.
The cradle linens are washed and ready...a moo-cow waititng.
And the house cleaned...and repainted (I've seriously been a crazy woman)...
Oh! And my sweet friend from work (thanks, Kara!) added this gem to baby boy's library. Have you read it? It features an empty pouched kangaroo.... It's a must read!
That's it for now; I'll post again after Friday's appointment!
my husband gave me that book when we were planning to adopt. Still a favorite!!

I love your organization and your energy! Can't wait for baby to get here! I haven't seen that book, but now I'm going to look or it. Looks like a good one. There's another one called The Perfect Gift (I think) and it's written by a birthmom. Our agency gave it to us when Dman was born and I still can't read it without crying.
ReplyDeleteI love the pics, but I do worry about the crib bumpers.

Not to be a downer, I just want your baby to be as safe as possible!
I'm getting really excited here, you're going to have a baby soon!
It looks like you guys are ready! I'm so excited for you.
ReplyDeleteHouse looks great!
ReplyDeleteCute folder! So organized and prepared!
We have that book...also from a friend!
So exciting!!!!
Now, how did you find our same curtains, but in new colors? Are they the same? I'm intrigued ;). Love and miss you like crazy...SOOOOO stinkin' excited. So excited. Just cannot wait for the phone calls to start. Somehow, I think I'll be last to deliver, so it gives me hope to know I'll get to hear about sweet Baby P soon.
ReplyDeleteOooh SO close now!! I am getting excited for you and checking for blog updates quite obsessively..;-)
ReplyDeleteIn case I don't get another chance before you leave, I just wanted to say that I hope it all goes incredibly well for all of you. Thanks so much for sharing your journey, it's been wonderful to "walk" with you every step of the way.
I actually bought this book without knowing what it was about, but once I read it to my son I thought it was such a sweet story!
ReplyDeletethat ultra organized folder does not even surprise me....almost here how awesome
ReplyDeleteRebekah!
ReplyDeleteYeah for you and Ben!!! So pumped and excited for both of you!
Rebekah is truly such a precious, precious person! I hope and pray that God continues to hold her tightly over the next few weeks, through the delivery, and in the weeks/months following!
You are so lucky and blessed to have her in your life. God has matched you both perfectly!
I will be praying especially for Rebekah, that she feels strong, free from pain and/ or complications... and that her heart is protected by our loving Father!
Hugs.... :)
wow wow wow!
