One week!

We are now down to only one week! We cannot believe that we are to this point and just can’t wait to meet Jackson!!! Over the last few weeks we have been trying to squeeze in movies and dinners out as all of our friends with kids say it will be quite some time until we will be watching a whole movie or finishing a meal. Although we are rightfully terrified about the labor and delivery we are mainly overwhelmed with excitement. We are so curious what Jackson will be like.  I think we are as prepared as we can be logistically but who knows how prepared we really are for the new lifestyle to come! We have a friend from church that had a baby two weeks ago, somehow even seeing her baby doesn’t help the reality set in.  Being a mom is something I have always hoped for but its hard to wrap my mind around the fact that motherhood is actually coming…and in only a week.
At this point we are scheduled to go in to the hospital on the evening of July 22nd. He will likely make his debut on the 23rd unless he decides to surprise us and come on his own schedule. Although I am ready for relief I am feeling sentimental about him not being inside me any more. I am trying to savor this last week when I can feel his little kicks and wiggles! He has moved off my sciatic nerve a little so my limping has decreased! In comparison to a week or so ago I am feeling great.

We will keep you all posted! Pray for us that we will get some much needed sleep in anticipation of the upcoming severe lack of sleep!

We can’t wait to introduce our little baby boy!

  1. Yeah, I need to see “Stranger than Fiction.” I forgot that it was already out on DVD. (We avoided it while it was out in theaters since we had heard it wasn’t the best and didn’t want to sink $13 into it.) Thanks for the tip!
