We've been staying so busy this week between trying to fit in all the last minute activities with Reid and friends, and trying to get everything ready for baby! It's like I feel a rush to get everything in that I can - we've gone to an indoor park with friends, storytime and carousel ride at the mall, lunch everyday...I think that's it. I had my last doctor appt. today, nothing new to report - she didn't even "check" me since I'm scheduled regardless for Monday, so I have no idea if I'm dilated or not. It was nice having my last weigh-in - even though I'm pregnant, I still dread those!!! We'll actually go in on Sunday morning and they'll start me on a blood thinner drip through IV, and then C-section is scheduled for Monday morning.
If you get a chance, please say a little prayer that the baby is healthy and ready to come out (they usually wait until 39 weeks for a scheduled c-section, but because of my situation we have to take him a little earlier), and also that the c-section recovery goes ok - to say that it was NOT FUN with Reid is a complete understatement (long story, but basically because of being on blood thinner, I developed a hematoma in the incision and so they had to do all this un-fun stuff in order for it to heal).
Here's a belly shot of 37/38 weeks:

Yeah! It's almost over! Good luck! If it's any consolation, my 2nd (and 3rd) c-sections were much better and easier to recover from than the first. I don't know about the blood thinner stuff but hopefully this one will be better too! I can't wait to see pictures!
I can't even believe that it's time!!! Can't wait to see you as a new momma again and see Reid as a big brother! What a precious experience y'all are about to have! Know that I am praying for you...we are going out of town on Monday, so I'll be calling you AS SOON as I get back in town to get some baby love! Love you, my friend!
That is so funny! Nice to 'meet' you. Potty Training 123 was the best book! Check it out!
I don't know about you, but I am about d.o.n.e with being pregnant! UGH! She'll be here soon enough, though! Good luck with your little guy! Love his name!
Oh...and I was a teacher, too, but am a little older than you! :)
Good Luck mama!!! You will do great! Cutest little prego thing you are!
