You know it is time to give birth when....

• You have read every magazine in the doctor's office at least twice.
• Ice chips are even giving you heartburn.
• Your milk expires 2 days AFTER your due date.
• You have to use the bathroom a minimum of 5 times a night.
• You have 3 outfits that still fit and you rotate them from day-to-day. 
• Your hospital bag is overflowing because you keep adding stuff to it.
• Your walk resembles more of a penguin than a human.
• Your husband's nickname for you is "Waddles" (see comment above).
• You are willing to do ANYTHING anyone suggests that may put you into labor. 
• The neighborhood recognizes me from my multiple walks a day, and ask "so how many days away is it now?"
• You are considering re-washing everything to give you something to pass the time.

As of today, I am 39 weeks, 3 days.  I am scheduled to see the doctor on Monday and if everything looks good, admitted to the hospital Monday night and induced Tuesday morning (a day before my due date)!  This could possibly be the longest weekend of our life.  We could not be any more excited to meet our little girl. 

As you can see, she is pushing the belly out even further.  Wow, I still can't believe how far it sticks out!

Hopefully my next post will have pictures of Miss Hallie James!
