I've been fighting a cold for the last week or so. I can't seem to get rid of it. This weakened immune system is a pain right now. Being unable to take much medicine has made it tough some days. We also need to go and do a tour at Labor and Delivery, but I don't want to do that until I've kicked this. We are probably going to try to do that this week or next weekend. We have another doctor's appointment on Friday, so we'll be pre-registering at the hospital, too. I can't believe we are at this point already. It is very exciting.
We washed a bunch of the baby clothes and set up a lot of the gifts we got. Now the nursery is starting to look like a nursery. It still isn't finished, but if she came today, it would be okay. We have a pack n' play set up, so she can sleep in our room for the first few weeks. We've been reading a bunch of baby books to get ready. We got our car seat installed and inspected. It is really strange having a car seat set up in the back of our car. We also have our stroller set up and it is just sitting in our hallway. Even Roxy can tell something is getting ready to change. We leave the baby room open, so she can go in there to check everything out. She checks it out almost every time she comes up the stairs. I know she is going to be jealous, but we are trying to make the transition as easy as possible for her.
I wonder if this will be the last post before her arrival. I doubt it. I don't feel like I'm getting too close. We'll see what the doctor says this week.
