It's Sunday evening, and Micah is scheduled to arrive Friday morning, so basically, I have four days left of parenting only one child. We did a ton of stuff this weekend, so what's great is that there's very little left to do this week except minor, easy things. It will be nice to take the next few days and really relax and not worry about much of anything. We now have a very clean house, a nursery that's ready to go, a big sister's room that's basically put together (for now), two completely full freezers, and some definitely swollen legs!
The doctor yesterday said that Micah's head was down and that I was just a tiny bit dilated, so she expects that I'll be able to hold out until Friday. We shall see! I'm in great health and Micah seems completely fine as well, so now it's just the waiting.
Alexis seems to maybe be understanding that there's a baby coming into the house, although I don't think she'll really "get" it until Micah's actually here. She's getting really good at identifying her colors. Oh, and the other week she stuck a pea up her nose, which freaked me out for a little while, but we got it out without too much of a problem. She's been hanging out with another kid who's a bit younger than she is, but we met another family down the road with a 16-month-old named Jack, and they've started playing together about once a week, which is really nice for her, and it's nice to be making some friends in the neighborhood! (They love Settlers, so sometime after Micah is born, we're going to get together and play.)
Yes, it's a brief update, but that's what happens when you're 39 weeks pregnant. :)
