The last couple of weeks we've spent just trying to prepare all the last minute things before Spot decides to make her big debut. Matt has deep-cleaned both vehicles and installed the carseats. I took my car over to the local Highway Patrol station for an official carseat safety check, and Matt received an "excellent job" for his installation. I spent the week at work trying to wrap up everything I can before my leave begins. Now I'm not so sure what I'm going to work on this week if Spot decides to keep us waiting much longer. On Friday when I got home from work I kept the momentum going and decided to clean and vacuum the house. I think they call that nesting. It continued Saturday when I decided to dust every surface in the house.
I did have some "me time" Saturday...probably one of the last times I will get the chance to do that for a LONG time. I had a hair appointment, went to the mall (hey I heard walking can help induce labor) and got a pedicure. Matt and I were supposed to have a date night, but by the time I got home that afternoon, it was snowing and the roads were starting to get pretty slick. So we ordered Chinese food and had our "date night" at home.
I did get a chance to see Spot one more time through ultrasound before she decides to come meet us. And it's official, she's still a girl. She also decided to empty her bladder while on the big screen. The ultrasound estimated she was about 7lb 11 oz....though they did say there was a margin of error of about 18 oz, so really who knows how big she is. Everything looked great, so now its just a waiting game until we get to meet her in the outside world.
