FINAL COUNTDOWN!!!!!

So, we FINALLY finished our nursery!!! Here is the finished product. We have been trying to figure out for months what to put above the crib. Originally, we were going to have his name put above the crib, but we never could decide on anything, so instead we decided to do a scripture.
Dave's sister did such a great job painting this on the wall-it turned out beautifully and was the final touch the nursery needed to be complete!

Now, its just a matter of weeks before he arrives and we couldn't be more ready (especially me). I've had a really rough couple of weeks at work, so I ended up taking my maternity leave early and have been home since last Wednesday, which has been WONDERFUL!!!!! I'm getting so many things done that I never thought I would be able to. I was having issues with high blood pressure and alot of stress, so I decided it would be best for me and the baby if I left early.
I am now going to the doctor every week so they can monitor me since I'm getting towards the end. I went last week and they said my cervix has started to soften, so I could begin to dialate anytime now! I go again this Wednesday, so I'm hoping for good news again! I'm still really hoping and praying he comes early, but at the same time, I do not want to get my hopes up. I've been SO uncomfortable the past few weeks as far as back pain, contractions, pressure, etc. etc. so I'm just ready for this to all be over with, but at the same time, I want him to be healthy and ready.
I know I've been really bad about getting on here and updating recently, but now that I'm home, hopefully I can do better.
