Week 37

Well little girl, you are exactly like your big sister, and this labor experience is proving to be identical to my first.  Adelie and I have started walking a lot with the new stroller, trying to move things along. I'm still contracting, ya know, all the time basically and there seems to be some sort of battle going on between my uterus and little A.  Even though it was terrible the first time around, I tried the pineapple thing. My mouth needed at least three days to recover. bleh. My tank tops and maternity shirts only fit for about 5min or until I move, then they creep up and I'm sporting the unintentional crop top.  She has dropped so incredibly low that I have given up on all top coverings and have been wearing shorts and  sports bras for the past week. If you ring my doorbell and I don't answer right away, I'm probably trying to find something to cover up with ;)  Adelie keeps asking when A or sissy is coming.
Good Question.
When are you coming little A?

Still a 2 and 60% effaced

Wondering how many days of being an only child she has left?

Note for baby #3-do not eat pineapple

best rumpus award

Because I don't do "nothing" so well, I made these stinking cute new blankets for Adelie & A
and a handful or two of other people ;)

Including a matching one for A's coming home outfit ;)

Props are starting to roll in for her newborn shoot/I am wrapping up the few things I'm making/painting for it :)

Papa turned the big 5-0!
