here we go.

Well… tomorrows the day. I just packed my hospital bag…the house is spotless…the laundry is done. The fridge is well stocked. These are the perks of a scheduled c-section, I guess. I’m sitting on my couch and this baby is moving all over. Tomorrow I won’t be pregnant anymore! I can’t wait to see what he looks like! And how much he weighs! I’m guessing right around nine pounds.

I had my pre-op today, surgery is tomorrow at noon. I am feeling all the feelings. I can’t believe we are here. I can’t believe it after waiting so, so long. I feel so lucky and blessed and HAPPY and nervous and scared and excited. I received a priesthood blessing tonight from my husband and my dad. Peace, comfort, joy- all the things I needed to hear. I can do hard things.

And no matter what happens tomorrow, it’s going to be a special day. I just know Max will be with us. I know I’ll be a weepy mess. We are so ready. SO ready. We have prepared as best we know how, to the best of our ability, and this is out of our hands.

We welcome you with open arms, little baby. Let’s do this.

almost 40 weeks versus 25. big baby.
