Jellybean Arrival Countdown

Just a little post to update as the Jellybean's arrival gets closer. I feel good, except when I'm sweeping/mopping/carpet cleaning/shoveling (all of which I've been doing a lot more of than usual or I'd like to). My belly is just so hanging out there that anything that requires a little core stabilization wrecks my lower back. I've got to get Steve to take a picture of it. I'm totally impressed with it. Elizabeth walked in on me in the bathroom today and I had my shirt half up and was rubbing all that undulating stretched out skin. Her response was, "Mommy, put your shirt down. Nobody wants to see that." Ha!

Linda is very impatient now about the baby coming. She said at dinner tonight, rather exasperated, "Can't it just be born tonight??!! January 25th is a perfectly good birthday!" And I think Elizabeth at this point is just incredulous that it will ever come out, no matter how many times I assure her that the fact that it will come out is the only thing of which I'm sure. I'm hoping to sew tomorrow night, but maybe Thursday I'll get the Jellybean 9-month saga that I've been working on out to you all complete with ultrasound pictures. (or maybe I'll go into labor and report a birth story next)
