39 Weeks - Countdown is on!

How far along? 39 Weeks and feeling like I'll always be pregnant, someone please tell me this ends
Maternity clothes? Yup!  Nothing new here, and I am pretty excited that I will soon be able to wear things in my closet that I haven't seen in months!
Sleep: I am so lucky that I am still getting good sleep, listening to other women who are this pregnant tell me that at the end it was really hard to get much sleep.  Just still so excited for my bladder to go back to its normal size so I don't have to get up as often during the night.
Best moment this week: Had a lovely evening with my best girlfriends, we had our annual gift exchange/dinner.  It was at my friend Kimmie's, her house is completely decked out and looks amazing.  Definitely makes me feel like I need to revamp our holiday decor!
Food cravings: Made pancakes this morning for breakfast.  Doused them in peanut butter and syrup, did not disappoint. 
Looking forward to: My due date! Which is this coming Friday, as in 5 days from today!  I can't believe the time is finally here.  At my last Dr. appointment I was only 1 cen dilated and 60% effaced so no real significant changes, but he did say he could come at any time, however with first babies they tend to be late.  I would LOVE to meet him sooner than later but am trying to be patient and plan for him being late so I'm not disappointed if Friday comes and goes.
Baby item of the week: I can't stop looking at baby boy clothes.  They are so tiny and cute!  Baby Zara has my heart this week, here are a few of my faves...
Baby Zara is killin me with these outfits
how cute are these suspenders and tiny shoes?!
I feel like my son may end up being real preppy until Dad gets his hands on him.

We went to Tim's cousin Deidre's 30th surprise party last night.  It was a 20's theme and I was struggling just a bit to try and find something to wear but I think we pulled it off.  Of course I had to take a pic in front of the board just for kicks.  


My love


Dee lookin' gorgeous!

I have another holiday get-together tonight with some girlfriends.  Going to use the rest of my time this week to relax and rest up before baby comes.  Also, I have a few friends giving me tips to self induce - lots of walking, bouncing on a medicine ball, drinking pineapple juice, chasing after my niece and nephew, among other things were just a few that were recommended.  Feeling anxious so definitely going to try out a few of these.

Have a great week! Everyone cross your fingers we'll meet Baby Ben this week!!!
