Last Doctor's Visit

This morning I had my last doctor's visit, hooray! No more weigh-ins and the baby will be here soon! I am still dilated to a 1 only (no change in 2-3 weeks) and he said I'm thinned out quite a bit (no percentage given) and the baby's head is really low. My doctor said my induction is set for 7 AM on Monday morning and to be there 15 minutes early. He also said I could eat a light breakfast which I'm glad about because I am still really nauseated and if I couldn't eat breakfast, I would probably feel ill during labor.

I'm glad that my induction is set for that early because last time I went in to be induced at 7:30, we arrived just before then and had to wait for a half hour to get everyone else going who got there before me. I'll probably shoot for being there 20 minutes early and beat everyone :)

I have so many things I want/need to get done this week, here's the list!

* Put together choir folders and deliver to my neighbor Rachel who is taking over my calling for the Easter program
* Car seat installed
* Batteries installed in the bouncy seat and swing
* Buy a present for my Dad's birthday
* Return library books
* Go on one last date night
* Wash everyone's sheets
* Wash baby bottles and pump parts
* Finish packing, including my kids stuff
* Wrap the gifts from the baby to my kids and put in my suitcase to give them at the hospital
* Deep cleaning including all 3 bathrooms, mop, dust, vacuum etc.
* Pay bills
* Grocery shop on Saturday so we are set

Wow, that's a big list, I better get going on it! You may think I'm nesting but really, I don't have a huge desire to do these things, rather I just feel they need to get done. Here goes nothing!

**Update**

Today I finished the following:

* Car seat installed
* Batteries in bouncy seat and swing and they both work, yay!
* Put together the choir folders
* Cleaned the basement bathroom and washed all of the towels
* Washed guest bedroom sheets and put the room back together for my Mom's visit
* Organized all of the kids toys and took most of them downstairs
* Brought up all of the bottles so I can wash them


I don't think I'll finish the rest of the deep cleaning til Friday or Saturday so it stays looking nice through next week.

Something else you could do is make a package/basket for Justin for the hospital with some of his favorite snacks, magazines etc. With little post it notes from you on each item telling him thank you or I love you....
Good luck with everything! We are very excited for you and hope all goes well.
