7 days...but who's counting?!?

Haisley will be here in 7 days...at the most!!  Because of my high blood pressure during this pregnancy, Dr. Alverson is inducing me on January 26, three days before my birthday and her due date!  I went to the doctor today and everything is progressing.  I am 2.5 cm and 80% dilated.  I am very disgusted with how I look pregnant, but I feel like Haisley will want to know what her mommy looked when she was in my belly.  This is a picture from 35 weeks...

...and an action shot of Hutchison

...which really tuckered him out

We have slowly been putting Haisley's room together, and it is finally starting to look like a nursery.

Haisley wants to tell the story:  It all started when daddy started putting my crib together.

Then, he made me a closet that would fit all of my clothes that mommy insisted that I have.

Mommy made me curtains and made my letter initials...

After mommy and daddy got everything together, two

of my "soon-to-be" favorite friends came over for a visit. 

And this little angel is almost crawling...I can't believe it.

The Countdown Begins

I am 36 weeks and 5 days pregnant today!  I feel like I have been pregnant forever...but only a couple more weeks to go.  I have had high blood pressure during this pregnancy, so I have been getting an ultrasound every month and a nonstress test every week for the past several weeks.  I have enjoyed getting so many pictures of our little girl before she even gets here!  Today we had our monthly ultrasound along with the weekly NST.  Everything looked good!  The ultrasound showed that she has a full head of hair and the lady doing the ultrasound even commented about how long it looked.  We'll be taking bows to the hospital!  She weighs about 6 lbs 8oz.  I am 1.5 cm dialated and about 50 % effaced, and if I don't have her before January 26th my doctor will induce.  We are busy finishing the last details of her nursery and anxiously awaiting her arrival!
