- I haven't had a chance to go get a haircut
- I need to catch up on laundry
- I don't have a plan for the kids while I'm at the hospital
- I don't think I have a single picture of me pregnant with this child
- I need to pack a bag for the hospital
- I have no diapers, formula or clothes ready for this baby when I bring him home
- the car seat needs to be taken off the garage shelf and cleaned
- Mason's crib is still in my room!!!!
- Andrew and I haven't spent any time alone (our last date was early July in Utah--NO JOKE)
To help myself feel a bit more prepared, I went to Target today and stocked up on diapers, wipes, formula, gowns, and lotion to get me thru at least the first week after the little guy arrives! I feel a little better now, but waddling thru Target with Mason wore me out, and I'm so uncomfortable and I think I can honestly say, "I'm done being pregnant." I'm done being unable to bend over, unable to sleep, running to the bathroom, and swollen feet. I'm scared about what's coming and there's only one way out of this, but I think I'm ready. I don't think Andrew can deal with me much longer-----I'm making him miserable! My doctor appointment is Wednesday morning, so we'll see what he says!
P.S. Thanks for the baby names ideas, what few I received. There were some good ones, though I thought I would get more feedback than that :)

I can definitely feel your pain. At least you have a car seat. last week I realized that the car seat didn't fit in the moving van along with the baby swing. I guess DI got very lucky. I have had many days that I think this baby is falling out. And my contractions are always from 4-5 am, at least the most intense ones. We are getting too old for this. By the way, we used Brett Herbert's title company to close on our house on Friday, (it is official, we own a house in Utah), he said to tell you HI. He said he and Steve have wondered what ever happened to you. Best of luck. The race is on which one of us comes first.
I totally get your pain! I hope he comes SOON!!! And don't worry - the laundry can wait (OR - I think Andrew has hands, right? LOL!)
Feel good!!!
Oh Heidi! You are making me not want another! just kidding. I know what you mean though when you it finally hits you that it could come any day! I remember with Maddy I didn't even pack anything to take to the hopsital until after my due date came and went because I guess I thought I was going to be pregnant forever. It all seems to work out and once that baby is out and the whole hospital thing is over just remember HOW much they sleep at first!
If it makes you feel better Sunday's were my worst days. I think it is really hard to keep hydrated during church. I would always come home and guzzle a gatorade, and my contractions would stop. If you need to drop kids off at my house in the night, I am more than happy to take them.
Sweet. We'll drop them off tonight around 7. --Andrew
Angela--tell your friends that what happened to Heidi is she got married to the guy she was "waiting for" when she was dating Steve. --Andrew
