39.5 Weeks...the final leg

We have made it to the week of the due date.  I am well aware this week could come and go with no baby making any kind of appearance but my hope is that we will meet him this week or soon after.  My most recent hope was that we wouldn't make it to our next appointment.  The appointment is on Wednesday.  It looks like we will make it.  The fun thing about this is to talk about all the progress I am doing but in the end we still wait on baby. 

We have been actively telling him we are ready yet he just is having a great time gaining weight and playing.  If I were to tell him everything we are thinking I think I would say:

Hey baby, first off...I can't wait to name you.  As soon as you come out I can name you and call you something other then hey baby, although maybe you like that.  I am really excited to see your feet as I often feel them coming out my side.  I am assuming you are enjoying your time in my womb.  Glad to hear it.  I don't know what its like in there but I really think you will enjoy the world out here too.  We have the essentials you will need so don't worry about anything.  We are excited to see what you look like and share you with others.  If you would like to make your appearance before Wednesday at 10:30am, that would be awesome.  If not, we will still love you but just give it some serious thought.  We have enjoyed this time together but we (your dad and I) are now just anxiously awaiting your arrival.  See you soon!  With lots of love and anticipation.

We will see if my little letter does the trick.

  1. Cute Kristen,
    He can always celebrate his birthday tomorrow with me. I'll be 52 tomorrow.
    I pray you have a healthy and safe delivery. It will be fun to meet the little guy.

  2. I love your note to him. That needs to go in his baby book. :) Hope you aren't too uncomfortable. Looking forward to seeing you tomorrow if baby decides to not make an appearance.
