38 1/2 Weeks

 

38 1/2 Weeks,

(Funny side note...I have had this fleece since college..when wearing big clothes was in style, glad I kept it)

 

There really is not a fall season in Houston.  It went from 80's and sunny to 40 and overcast in less than two weeks.  Thankfully I have one pair of maternity jeans that has continued to fit throughout my pregnancy.  I am down to two short sleeve tops...so I am wearing a long sleeve shirt of Allen's.  I don't want to buy any additional clothes because I only have a short time left.  Plus from everything I read I understand I will be leaving the hospital in my pre-maternity clothes:) 

 

I went to the doctor today and she said if I don't deliver by 11/24 they will need to induce.  Due to my age they don't want to go past my due date.  So Alexis should be here by Thanksgiving!!  I am excited. My sister and brother will be here with us for the holiday so they will get to meet her. 

 

My mom moved in with us two weeks ago. We are so lucky and thankful.  I have no idea how we would survive without her.  My back is feeling so much better because I am able to sit and do nothing.  She has been shopping, cooking, helping with laundry, learning to change Monkey's diaper and keeping me from going stir-crazy.  It was been nice to get things done then be able to sit around and chat with her during the day. 

 

The countdown has begun...11 days or less.
