19 days to go...

19 days to go...Wow. I am starting to get less discouraged and more excited as the days tick by. I have less than three weeks till I meet my little boy. I know labor will not be easy, but I'm looking forward to no more swelling, no more bed rest and just meeting this little guy. He has his own personality already. I can't wait to put a face with it. Jakob's bag is packed and ready to go. I'm still waiting on his little outfit for the hospital, which should come in today, and his bag is complete. My mom and I went to Wal-mart yesterday...I know I'm on bedrest, but there's things I've gotta have for the hospital, and the doc said if I'm feeling o.k. I can make little trips. I got everything I can think of needing for the hospital, and today I've gotta pack it all up. This last week I've been at my moms house during the day. She has been so sweet to me, cooking me all kinds of healthy food, and keeping me company, so I'm not bored to death. I feel like a burden, though of course she says I'm not, and if I was at home she'd be calling me every ten minutes. At one point last week my blood pressure was spiking and I would feel like I was gonna pass out, so I just felt like I needed to be close to someone who could take me to the hospital if I needed to go. Not to mention the hospital is almost an hour from my house, and only 15-20 minutes from my mom's house. So needless to say I'm so thankful for my mom and all she does, she is the kind of mom I want to be one day. That's about all that's going on for now. For the most part I've been reading and taking it easy. I need to put up a pic, which I will try to do sometime today. Hope you all have a great weekend!!! Love, -Me
