10 WEEKS LEFT!!!

Let the countdown begin.  We have only 10 weeks left until our estimated due date and that feels pretty good!!!  We are so excited to meet our little Everly Wynn and we just can't wait to get started on our new adventure as a family of five.  Momma is also really looking forward to moving on from pregnant to postpartum and feeling a little bit of relief from the third trimester aches and pains.  Yes.... it's true....  I am really looking forward to the sleepless nights if it means that my poor, throbbing varicosities will receive a break. In order to get some much needed relief I have been enjoying MANY long, hot, epsom salt soaks in the bath tub.  They feel so luxurious and baby Everly loves the baths so much that she flips and kicks and squirms the whole time.  She must really like the feeling of the water warming my belly.  At 10 weeks out we really don't have too much left to do.  The nursery and bathroom are complete and Nana gifted us an awesome car seat and stroller base.  We still need a few necessities like bath supplies, a bath tub, and what not, but for the most part, she could arrive tomorrow (God forbid) and we would be prepared.  That feels really good.  Well, I do still need to get my birth kit together, but  that requires one order over the net.  With that being said, we really don't NEED Everly to wait the full 10 weeks (or more) to get here, and it would be mighty nice if she decided to make a 38 week arrival!!!  Is that asking too much?  At the very least we hope she arrives 10 days early just like her big brother Lennon. Here's to hoping!!!
