6 more days... Very ready for next Thursday!

So it has been an eventful week. Still not really nervous more like anxious and excited. I have been really tired the past couple of days. One day however I did get up at 5am just to clean. So is that nesting?? But other than than that, super lazy and tired. About every other night I do have contractions still. They are only about 30 mins apart though and they last from 5 hours to maybe just 2 hours. Things are still changing in my tummy though. He must be getting bigger and bigger becuase his rolls and punches feel a lot different. Like he is a lot stronger, if that makes since. Last night I had a very vivid dream about his foot and leg coming out of my belly button. I even put my hand around what would have been his leg, it seemed so real. My skin streching any everything. But then when I woke up this morning my belly was just really sore. Crazy huh? Another new thing that either I can just feel now or that Collin has actually just figured out, is he can stand in my belly. I can feel his two feet down really low. And when he pushes down it makes me want to fall over. OHWW!! All of these sensations may be different things, but that is the best way I can describe them.

So on another note, I know that some people get a door hanger on their hospital door when they have a baby. Something like congratulations, or it's a boy, or the baby's name on it. Some are bought at stores or florist shops but sometimes I have seen them homemade. The problem with all of this is that I did not know it was supposed to be a gift. So I wanted to go to Hobby Lobby this past week to make Collin's.  I mean we (my mom and I) went all out, buying ribbon, wooden letters, a baby wooden tiger to paint, and the wreath that you put it all on. We even bought the sticker letters you put on the ribbon to say how big he is and date and time. The door hanger is amazing. It is super super cute. I told my mom we need to go in the business of making these. Because they sell them at the gift shop for outrageous amounts of money. So a big ooooops on the thought it was supposed to be a gift, but I really like what we made. Plus it is something if I wanted to I could use as a decoration in his room when he comes home. I told Josh, Collin was going to have the best door hanger in the hospital, he just laughed.  So here are some of the pics, we still need to glue the ribbons to the back but you can get the idea.





Here we are at 39 weeks this morning. Big Belly and All.

The next 6 days I hope go by fast, this weekend we have a party on Saturday, football on Sunday, Baby Dr appointment Monday, Lab Work up to be done on Tuesday. Wed just be nervous, then Thursday he will be here.
