35 weeks

Today marks 35 weeks of growing a baby! I'm hoping (and praying) she's ready to come out and meet us all in five weeks! My Midwife thinks she's going to be a big girl, thankfully we don't have too many "newborn" size clothes. We might start at the 0-3 months size at least in length! Do they make talls for infants?

We are gearing up and trying to figure out exactly what we have left to buy that we actually need. Thanks to many many friends we are well stocked with new and used stuff! I love hand-me downs!

The nursery is coming along and we've washed, folded and sorted a lot of baby clothes. We've got sheets on the bassinet, and small diapers ready (disposable and cloth). We tested the car seat (it's going to be a tight fit in the back of our car!)

The boys are excited. They both talk at my belly in the evening and before leaving for school. Lately, Ermias has been making sounds at the baby and Isayas tends to whisper to her (and knock on my belly).

Over the Christmas holiday, Ermias gave her the basic outline of Star Wars (all six episodes), while I just stood there trying not to laugh. It was so sweet! So whether she remembers or not she's had the basics!

So, five more weeks and counting! Fingers crossed!!
