The final countdown!

I'm 36 weeks and officially starting to count down until this baby gets here. I feel like I'm in the home stretch and the end (of being pregnant) is in sight! It's funny because even though we didn't find out what we're having this time I've never been more prepared. I thought I would be dying to know if it's a boy or girl, but I've been totally fine with it, until the last couple weeks. Now I'm just getting really impatient to know what it is. Jayna has totally switched from wanting a sister to wanting another brother. She's now completely sure it's a boy and when I tried to ask her why she thinks that she just says "Because I love having a brother, so I want another one!" Good enough for me. And so now of course Kepler thinks it's a boy and wants a brother too. At least I know that if Jayna is happy, Kepler will be too.

I've been going back and forth between thinking it's a girl or boy this whole time, but I think it's been about 60% boy and 40% girl. Gibb just says that every time he pictures the baby he pictures a boy.

There's not really much else I can do to prepare until the baby gets here, except try to keep my house clean. My mom gets here on Thursday and the kids finish swimming lessons on Friday. And then we all get to sit around and wait...I have a feeling this could be a long month. ;)

Here I am about a week ago at 35 weeks

Oh the last month of being pregnant...such fun! Good plan to have your mom there to help & distract. You look fabulous. Looks more like a baby #1 bump than a #3! We never found out what we were having in any of my pregnancies and my guess was always wrong. Every time!! No intuition apparently. Excited to see what you guys will have. Sure to be a cutie. ~ Jody

You do not look 8 months pregnant! You look great! I know you're trying to convince yourself that you'll go full term...but I'm sure deep down in there must be thinking/hoping 37 weeks is still the magic number... :)
