39 Weeks and counting!

Well, we officially have exactly one week until the due date. We are getting very impatient and anxious to meet the newest member of our family! The pregnancy up to this point has been a smooth one. Last week, Lindsay was sent to the hospital because her right leg and foot were much more swollen than her left. They did an ultrasound to rule out any blood clots and everything came back good. For some reason, the right foot is just retaining more fluid. Just a minor bump in our journey!
Now, with a week left, we are just wanting our little boy to come. We cannot wait to see who he looks like. Will he have Ben's dark hair and eyes or will he be blond with blue eyes like Lindsay? Or... will he be different from the two of us and come out red headed with green eyes?! We joke that he'll come out Asian :-) It's the big question we'll be asking til we see him! All we know is that he'll be handsome no matter what!

We both have done some "nesting" to prepare for Owens arrival. Things on the list:
-Clean, clean, clean!
-Install car seats
-Cook and freeze meals
-Pack the labor bag
-Wash and fold all baby laundry
-Set up all baby equipment
-Oh, and did we mention, clean, clean, clean?

So Owen, we are ready for you. Please don't keep us waiting much longer.

Love, Mommy and Daddy
