Gettin' Close!

We are seeing the doctors weekly now. The baby has dropped quite substantially this week. Heather is much more down and round. There is not much room to move around in there so, when she does move, Heather's stomach looks like a scene from Alien or something. Little quack has been doing the happy dance a lot and she looks like she's ready to bust out!

The nursery is in good shape, we have washed many, many loads of baby clothes now all we need to do is store up some sleep! I know you can't really do that but it sounds good.

Heather will be working right up until labor time and her boss and coworkers are very supportive and caring.

We are looking forward to Nana coming from Germany to stay with us for almost the entire month of September and Papa will join us for a week in mid September.

I hope the baby will some day appreciate that Heather kept her cool and healthy during the hottest August on record here in the Cincinnati area. 15 days in a row in the 90's and several days recently above 100. Heather is a furnace unto herself let alone carrying another little fire stoker!

The girls are getting excited about the arrival of their sister. Micaela is back at school and Jackie heads to college for the start of classes on Sept 19th. Good times....gooooood times.
