Three more days...

I was getting nervous about being so close and having progressed so much in a 24 hour period, so I decided to begin my maternity leave early. I was going to try to work through next Saturday, which would put me 13 days before my due date. However, work is 40 minutes away from home, and I'd have to drive myself, or snag one of my employees to drive me all the way down here to my house, which is just a few short blocks from the hospital. So, I concluded to finish out this week, Saturday and Sunday, and help with the Monday numbers on Monday. Then I will be out of there until this little babe is born. Dr was surprised I had begun to show signs at my appointment on Wednesday, and the nurse who checked me out on Thursday said I wouldn't make it to my due date. I hope they didn't jinx me into delivering late:) I want this little man out of my belly!


Here we are at 37 weeks, after a beautiful drive up Hobble Creek. I love fall drives! Great day with the drive, and deciding to work only three more days:)

I hope I didn't jinx you when I told your coworkers there was no way you were going to make it to the end of your maternity leave, he was coming before that. Sorry! On the bright side, we get to see this little man (hopefully) a little earlier!
