Minh recently stayed up until 2am assembling IKEA bookshelves for the new office. (Because, obviously, if the baby arrives and the books are not organized, she's going to be *pissed*).
Even though I plan to nurse for the first few weeks before pumping any milk, I am freaked out that I cannot locate my pump *right now* and even called Minh at work the other day in a slight panic to ask him if he knew its whereabouts.
Minh ordered 10 yards of mulch and is renting some heavy machinery this weekend (anyone shocked?) in order to get it all spread in one day, and before what's-her-name arrives. Honestly, a smarter man would wait until after the baby arrived and then use this as an excuse to get out of the house.
I attended a Savory Suppers session and assembled 6 meals. Between those and our usual supply of "quick dinners," the freezer is now stocked and ready.
I'm hoping to stay pregnant long enough to have tea out with my friend next week before life is turned upside-down. I think Minh is hoping he gets to finish watching the NBA finals.
We are both, however, looking forward to the arrival of our daughter. I can't wait for heartburn relief, backache relief, and the occasional glass of wine. Minh can't wait to have his non-pregnant wife back so we can move five tons of wood pellets into the basement.
I am currently 36 weeks and 4 days pregnant. I went into labor with Tai at 36 weeks and 5 days. Surely, this means that this little girl will be 2 weeks overdue and we still have a long way to go......(and plenty of time to locate that pump!)
