I made it.
I’m full term.
There’s a human in me that could come out tomorrow and become president in 35 years.
This feels like a dream. I keep waiting to wake up.
On the left, the day I found out about mozzi, about 4 weeks. On the right, today. 37 weeks.
I guess now’s the time we all start guessing when I’m going into labor and just how big this kid is going to be.
Addie came on her due date, I went into labor around 9 am, she was born shortly after 4 pm. She weighed 6 lbs. 14 oz. and was 19.5″ long.
Phew. This is real.
Thank you for sticking by me.
xoxo

Yup. That belly is definitely out farther than the boobs. For a while.
And may I say, young lady, you look MARVELOUS.

Addie came ON her due date? How fun! And what a short labor! I hope that’s the case with Mozzi, well at least the short labor part. I’m guessing she’ll be born 6 days before her due date and be 7 lbs 4 oz and 20 inches.

The same jeans? Are you kidding? Where are the terribly ugly maternity pants? Why do these things always evolve after I’m through with that stage of my life.
Prayers are already in place for Mozzi’s grand entrance. May the curly, gray mullet doctor make it a party!

A. I am so happy for you. From what I can tell on the internet you seem like an amazing mother. Mozzi is so lucky already.
B. How awesome is it that you can still fit into those same jeans? Win.

I cannot believe that you have the same freakin’ pants on! I am still not into my 4 mos. pregnant pants and my baby is 3!
Have a wonderful birth with your new bundle of pure love and joy. You deserve this so enjoy every moment. I will not hazard a guess on weight, etc., but I will pray for a safe delivery and magical moments.

Things that impress me:
1)same jeans? I would hate you for it except that I think you earned it with all of the crap you went through
2)you still have ankles? (see above)
3)the way your hair falls in the first pic like you leaned back and laughed
congrats and happy baby pushing.
