9 days...

9 more days until the big "due date"! Many are betting on the day Ellasyn will choose to make her entrance into this world. Some think it will be on Ethan's birthday... July 18, which is already shared by one of our niece's. That would be convenient. My dad is rooting for July 31 so that he can remember his anniversary as well as her birthday. Ethan's aunt is going by the change of the moon, and I am not sure when that will be? Any way you choose, Ellasyn Hannah will come when she is ready.

Am I ready? Most definately. It has been over 100 degrees for the past 14 days here in Arlington, and it does not cool off when the sun goes down. It is hot! Ethan is reminded by his mother during this time of year that he was born during the hottest summer on record in Texas... and it has yet to be beat. So, I guess I can't complain too much? Did I mention that it is hot? We are supposedly getting a "cold front" this week, and I have heard that changes in the weather also bring on labor. I will let you know. Ha.

Ready or not...

Well, 18 days to the estimated due date! Ethan looked at the calendar yesterday and had a bit of a moment... anytime in the next three weeks, we will have a baby! It has been such a wonderful journey. I think that we have everything ready. I have been procrastinating, and still don't have a bag packed for the hospital. Just a minor detail. ha :) Other than that, everything is set up, assembled, batteried, and in place for our precious daughter to be welcomed home!
