No, she's not here yet!

Though that would be a good excuse as to why we have been so lazy about updating the blog. I really don't have a good reason, except that we have been really busy getting ready for little Sloan's arrival.

We finally finished our birth classes, where we learned so much about the whole process, toured the hospital birthing and recovery rooms, and met some lovely couples. My favorite class was the one where Jason learned massage techniques for use during labor. With my wonderful mother's help, I finally washed and organized all the baby's clothes, which was no easy task considering how many clothes Sloan has. We were very lucky to get hand-me-downs from all the little Phelan cousins and from my friend Christy, who is also giving me an Arm's Reach Co-Sleeper!

I've reached 37 weeks now, so if the baby came today, she's be full-term. She's making stronger movements and is in a head-down position. I am going to OB appointments every week, and gettting to meet more of the midwives. They are all very reassuring and kind. I'm still working at the psych hospital through this week, but have cut down on my hours. My co-workers always make sure I'm not over-exerting myself, and the adolescent patients always ask to feel my belly.

Jason and I just can't wait to meet our little girl. I've been a bit more emotional lately, crying over certain TV shows and movies. I just bawled the other night over the movie "Waitress", which is a really sweet movie. I just can't believe I'm going to be a mother in just a few weeks!
