Okay, I’ve been waiting until the day that I could title my post like this. Have you seen the move “This is 40”? Loved that movie.
Anyway, so I’ve reached 40 weeks!So far I don’t feel like the baby is coming anytime soon. And that’s a good thing. Tonight I have Afton’s Senior Awards ceremony to attend, and tomorrow I have Andrew’s Kindergarten Singing Performance and A.J.’s 4th grade violin concert. And of course there’s Afton’s prom on Saturday. Nope, no time for baby to come now. He’s just going to have to stay put until Sunday, at least. Well, that’s MY plan. I wonder what the little guy’s plan is?
We’ve got everything ready!
The birthing tub, inflated and ready to go
Aria, Andrew & Aislynn wanted to get in the picture
The hose that will fill the tub
and it’s attached this time, and doesn’t leak!
The baby’s changing table, which is in our master bath
Baby diapers and supplies
The crib, set up next to my side of the bed
…which we all know will just be a place where a pile of clean laundry will collect. My babies rarely sleep in their cribs — they sleep with me! But still. I like to set up the crib because…well, that’s just what you do when you are preparing for baby! It doesn’t feel right not to set the crib up!

THIS is 40 weeks…and I’m very glad to be here!

haha I have not even bought a crib mattress this time for that reason. But I am sure I will have the basinet sat up and ready to go. Even if I do just use it for diapers and clothes

Beautiful, looks like this last one will have a perfect start. Look forward to hearing about all of the family events and your son’s birth. God bless you.

That’s awesome! I’ve been waiting to see if baby is staying put for you. I hope the next few days he stays in and lets you do the other important events before he comes. Yay for the pool being inflated and the hose being ready!
