So a tentative induction date has been set for Monday, November 24. I will have an epidural in place, so that after the baby comes out they can manually remove the placenta without all the discomfort I've had during the previous times.
I am more than just a little excited about knowing the day that she's supposed to arrive.
In preparation for the little lady's arrival I have accomplished the following:
- I have three dozen cloth diapers, 6 covers, and 3 dozen+ cloth wipes for the impending tiny hiney.
- I also made a snazzy diaper bag that is only slightly bigger than the purse that I made myself. And it matches my wallet, too!
- The carseat ispurchased, ready, and waiting.
- So is the sling.
- The clothes/bedding/furniture/everything else have been gone through but are still boxed up at Granny's, because I am hoping that God will perform a miracle and we'll actually be in the new house before she gets here Otherwise I will retrieve/wash the newborn sized stuff/port-a-crib/essentials about two weeks prior to D-Day and we will "make do" here until we can move.
Speaking of the house, here's what there is left to do that I can think of off the top of my head:
- drywall/sheetrock
- hardwood floors
- interior trim
- vinyl siding
- cabinets
- sinks/showers/tubs/toilets
- air conditioning
- fireplace
- interior paint
- interior doors
- driveway
Can all this be done and allow time for the "legal stuff" so that we can move in before the baby is scheduled to arrive? God only knows ;) I'm so glad that He's in charge of it all.
