Nevertheless, it could be that this baby knows exactly what he's doing. I do have about a week left of work to prepare for maternity leave both at my job in Stillwater and with CRTIEC, so by waiting one more week he's nearly assuring that his mommy will be able to totally put work down and focus on him when he arrives.
To bide the time I've been making lists and crossing things off, as I am known to do so well :). My to-do list this week is lengthy, but if I get it all done the timing should be perfect for baby Hollman to make an appearance by Sunday or Monday or so (likely wishful thinking on my part). We'll see when he decides to finally grace us with his presence. On Tuesday the doctor will be striping my membranes, and if it works, usually women see results within 72 hours (or so the doctor says).
This weekend we wrote the many many many shower thank you's after I created the thank you from the maternity photo images.
Then we put up the planes Drew made for the baby's room, and TaDa! The nursery is officially finished! All we need now is the baby.
We also finally brought in the cradle my dad made for the baby and put it in our family room in the basement. My mom made all of the bedding and my Aunt Chris made the quilt. The cradle goes perfectly with the furniture in his room, however its much too large to fit in there, so we put it in the basement, where I'm sure I'll be spending lots of my time soon after delivery.
We can't wait to share the new of Baby Hollman's arrival, but until then we'll continue to hurry up and wait.
