So tomorrow is the big day! My parents are here, they are having fun with Kate and I am getting a lot of last minute stuff done. Paul has to work, of course. But we are going out for Tex-Mex tonight (duh) to celebrate. We have decided to have a birthday party for Audrey on Monday, when she comes home. Katelyn is really into birthday parties right now, because so many of her friends have had them lately. So she has really latched onto the idea of having a party for Audrey, with cake and balloons and party hats and goody bags! We (I) made some little "Happy Birthday Audrey" signs and she picked out a present for the baby. She got a little stuffed doggie that makes a rattle sound, and we named it Cocoa. She doesn't know that Audrey (I) picked out a present for her, too: a miniature version of Greenbear, so basically Greenbear is having a baby too. I hope this works out to be as great an idea in real life as it does in my mind.
Overall, I feel great. Yes, I'm enormous, tired, and sore in various places, but compared to where I was a month ago, I feel teriffic. I can't believe that in less than 24 hours I will finally get to see her. I can't wait!!!!!!!! So here is a final picture of me at the end of it all:
And here's a pic of Audrey's room, ready for a tiny and adorable occupant. There's the little doggie Kate got for her, on the new dresser (a gift from Paul's family). Do you like the diaper cake that Jen made?
We'll post the big news as soon as Paul has the time. Thanks for getting us through the last few months, it's been quite a ride! I am sure that the next few will be too!
