37 weeks and almost ready to go..

I can't believe that its almost time to meet our precious baby girl! Alex and I are sooo soo excited and just counting down the days. We have everything we need.. but could always use more diapers and wipes. We have been so blessed with the baby showers and our amazing family and friends. Thanks to everyone for the gifts and prayers. I keep saying we're going to have the best dressed baby because we have TONS and TONS of cute clothes.. and still more on the way! craziness. I almost don't have room enough to fit them all in the huge walk in closet! But no complaints.. I love clothes! hehe.

I go in for my 37 week check up tomorrow to see how the baby is progessing. A couple people have told me they think she has already "dropped".. and they might be right. I definitely feel more pressure on my pelvic bone area.. and I can eat more now then I could just a couple weeks ago.. which is another sign that she's dropped. Other than that.. I've had some minor cramps lately.. my doctor says its probably Braxton Hicks, which is also good cause my body is getting ready and preparing me for the things to come.

Yay! Other than pregnancy and baby news.. Alex is enjoying his new job. Though he works a lot more now, but I suppose its worth it. hehe :) I'm also trying to finish up my tax course.. but the final exam is in a few weeks.. which is when the baby is due. Yikes.. I just hope it works out and that the teacher can work with me to take it at a different time, if I can't be there on the day of the exam. I was also hoping to be able to work this tax season starting in January.. but training is all through December.. so that probably won't happen. Bummer! I guess my tax skills will have to wait till next year. :)

P.S. We are 99.9% positive the name is..... Adahleigh Rose, but we may change the spelling to Adaleigh or Addaleigh. It means beautiful addition, prosperous, and happy. We can't wait to meet our beautiful addition! Some people don't like the name Adahleigh.. so if thats your case.. we love the nickname Addie too. My mom has already decided to call her Addie, because she doesn't like Adahleigh.

Oh, and I will post more pictures next time.
