36 weeks

So at 30-32 weeks I was thinking it was easier being pregnant than having a newborn....... at 36 weeks I'M DONE! I can't sit through an hour of Sacrament meeting without totally swelling up. It's time, he needs to get here or mommy is going to lose it. The doctor thinks he will be here sometime between the 21st - Christmas day! Let's hope it's sometime soon! Andrew leaves for LA on the 16th to the 23rd and is praying the baby doesn't come while he's gone (and so am I!) But no worries we are excited to have Andrew's mom and my friend Catrina out on the 15th- can't wait!!

On another note, I have to tell one Ellie story. Last Saturday she woke up talking to herself (as she often does) and I heard a barrage of words, but most clear were the words: doggies, baby Will (her new brother to be) and Jesus. Maybe she woke up from a really cool dream. I thought it was cute.

What a great christmas present! Is Andrew going to be in LA for work? Mike is there freelancing right now, so Andrew should call him if he has time. Glad you will have family there with you. I cant wait to see pictures of him when he comes.

Oh Shawna... I feel for you! I hope that baby cooperates timing wise. Those last few weeks and days are the worst, eh? So glad you'll have some extra help so soon. I wish I lived next door, especially now!

That dream the Ellie had was really sweet- Jonah had a Jesus dream, and I don't doubt that they're closer than we realize to the Spiritual realm. Maybe she made friends with her new baby brother already! :)

I didn't realize you were so far along. How exciting to have another little one and a little boy! I hope he waits for Andrew to come back. We are so excited for you and hope all goes well!
