The Sunday Salon [5.31.15] – The Home Stretch

May 31, 2015Michelle

Tomorrow marks the beginning of June and 36 weeks of pregnancy for me.

Someone just told me it seems like I’ve been pregnant forever. And, while I can’t imagine what would possess someone to say that to me, I have to agree. This pregnancy has felt long. It has been mostly unpleasant and I’m done. I really am thankful that I am still pregnant (unlike a lot of other people I know who recently had their babies early) and I need to make it 37 weeks to deliver at my birth center. But this baby can come anytime he wants after next Monday.

Thank you to everyone who left book recommendations on my last post. I still have no desire to read but I’m hoping that changes once the baby is here. I miss reading.

Life has remained busy. Evan just turned three and we threw him a superhero party to celebrate.

He also finished up his first year of preschool and is looking forward to summer camp (although we’ll both be home, we are sending him part time all summer). Ben is wrapping up his school year and I’m wrapping up my work before my maternity leave begins. My mom will be here in just a few weeks (she’s trying to make it for the birth but, as mentioned above, I not-so-secretly won’t mind if he comes before that).

June is sure to be an exciting month around here.

Unless this baby waits until July to make his debut.

*cries at the thought*

It seems like it’s good timing/luck for an end of the school year due date, so that Ben can be home with you guys all summer – that will be wonderful! Especially since this time you also have a 3 year old! Looking forward to seeing pics of the new little guy! 🙂

  Ben and I were just discussing how most people think it’s complete luck that we’ve had two babies at the start of summer break. 😉

    hehehe, I figured some planning went into that, but it is a bit of luck that it worked! 😀

Here’s hoping that the baby comes sooner rather than later…

Ethan is tall isn’t he? 🙂 Sorry to hear that your pregnancy has been unpleasant. Some pregnancies have you feeling great and others like crap. Luckily for me, I haven’t been feeling badly though I’m counting down until July when I’m due. I’m going to keep my fingers crossed that your little one comes next Tuesday. 🙂

One thing is certain, the baby will eventually come out 😉 My coworker had her baby last week and you and I think at least three other bloggers I follow are all due around the same time. I love the baby updates but I also remember how those last few weeks can feel. You look great though!
