Final Belly Pic?

Well here's what we hope to be the final belly picture...the end is in sight and greatly anticipated. Luckily I have had a great pregnancy and I'm actually NOT miserable or desperate to get this kid out of me :) Although the heat has made my feet swell to the size of my calves and my toes look like little sausages! I'll be happy to wear my heels again when this is all over.
The bag is packed and the car seat is ready to go to the hospital. The evenings have become quite uncomfortable beginning just this week. The baby is moving farther down and leaning forward is sometimes painful. For those of you who haven't been pregnant I describe it as this...put on a pair of jeans that are 2 sizes too small, button them and then sit down. Yeah, not a great feeling but in this case, worth it. I'm still sleeping great at night except for the 3 bathroom runs I make and I still get around pretty well during the day... I can't complain.
Oh yeah, we are totally finished with the nursery. All of the painting, primping, sewing, organizing, washing and folding is done. Here are the final pictures.Hopefully there are only 13 days left (or less). We'll see if the doctor has any info for us on Tuesday. We'll try and call everyone ASAP when the baby is born. Wish us luck; this may be our last post until we have pictures introducing the little one.

Holy Preggo, Batman.
:)
Yes, I remember that two-sizes-too-small-jeans feeling very well. I think I wore sweatpants for the last month of my pregnancy!

You look great, Becky, (truly!) and the nursery is adorable. Hopefully I can see it in person before the babe arrives -- maybe this weekend?

Take care of yourself, and hang in there. Miss Clara will be here before you know it!

P.S. James, how do you live with yourself?

As my grandma would say, "My, how you've grown!" You look great, Becky. That little Clara should have you very busy very soon. Good luck with a safe arrival! Breathe, breathe, breathe. You too, James.

No, I can’t say that I know the feeling of being pregnant. But, tonight I’m going to find a pair of pants that are two sizes too small and slip into them. Let’s hope nothing goes wrong and I’m stuck on the floor crying for help.

I’m excited for you both, and especially your new little Boy! Oh, didn’t anyone tell you that those ultrasounds can fool ya. Well, when mini-James is born I’ll come over and paint his room blue for him. : )

Congrats! Enjoy this time and all the fun memories to come!!!

Happy day after your birthday, Miss Clara! And congratulations to your mommy and daddy, too. Now be a good girl and let them get some sleep before you come home. Can hardly wait to see you (or at least your pictures!).
