40 weeks and still no Baby D

As you can clearly see we have, most unfortunately, made it to our due date with no baby.  I am enormous to the point of bursting.  I just don't think my body is very good at being so big.  Baby D is not really allowed to come out on Saturday because of Ore 2 Shore.  I really don't want to miss Jam's 1st race and Joel's first Ore 2 Shore.



James has been nesting with me and Grandma Dank.  I'm pretty sure that we're all ready... now all we need is a baby.  He has taken to telling Baby D to "come out" about 25 times a day.  It is to the point that I have to tell him that Baby D is sleeping so we have to leave it alone.  He is just very excited.  Let's hope he still likes the baby once its actually out :)

James learned how to use the little vacuum so he could help mommy by sucking up the Dust Puppies and Dust Kitties.  It has been very helpful.


This is video of James helping Grandma Dank redecorate the bathroom for my "Baby Shower Gift."  It turned out super cute, and is now pretty well organized.  We ran out of baby stuff to nest with so we've turned our attention to random rooms.

We are just getting ready to leave for camping and had to check the blog one last time. I was so excited to see that a new post was loading, but then a little disappointed to see that there is still no Baby D. Come on, baby! We are ready to meet you! Keep me posted!

Love, Rachel

Betsy-

I know you are probably in the hospital right now! Don't worry, the older sibling LOVES the baby and is super careful and full of wonder at a newborn. Then when they start crawling, it's all over. That's when you have to play referee, because for some reason your big boy, responsible brother, diaper change assistant and head patter turns into a crazed baby assassin! Augh!

Good luck! I hope to see some new posts soon!
