A lot happened for us this week. As you know, we frantically switched doctors about two weeks ago. Well.. this week, we had to switch hospitals! At my appointment on Tuesday, the doctor told us our only option was to deliver at North Fulton. So... Tuesday afternoon, Nick and I headed straight to the hospital for a maternity tour. To be honest, it paled in comparison to Northside Forsyth, BUT, the nurses seemed awesome (especially the one that led the tour). She expressed how basically everything is the mom's decision from the moment she walks in. They are very "natural birth" friendly. I could tell we would be most comfortable here despite the fact that it wasn't our first choice. The labor and delivery rooms are nice- we just weren't too thrilled with the postpartum rooms. But hey- its 24-48 hours right? We can make it! So, after getting our deductible back from Northside, and spending another half our in the week filling out paperwork for North Fulton, we are officially switched! Hopefully the last minute stressors are BEHIND us! At least I'm praying that's the case!
On a lighter note, my mom brought over some take out from Ippolito's on Thursday night! The Eggplant Parmesan had absolutely no effect on me. Not even one minor contraction! That's okay. I never really believed it would happen like that for me anyways! It was fun to try. It was even on a full moon and everything. Clearly God has a different time frame in mind for baby B! I've been walking like crazy at the gym- no luck there either. I am very anxious to go to the doctor tomorrow and see what our status is! Not so much looking forward to the process of finding out, but more of the results after the fact!
My mom (Grammie) also bought Bekham a new outfit for when we get pictures taken at the hospital! It's a precious outfit that I am not posting here, simply because, it needs to make its first debut ON our son! And oh I just cannot wait! It is yummy! She also got him a couple long sleeve onesies ... I somehow managed to accumulate ZERO of those! Then, on Friday and Sunday, we managed to take a couple maternity shots outside as the leaves were at their peak color! I had wanted to get some taken professionally, but, decided we could save our money and just have my Mom get a couple good ones for the memory! I am satisfied with the results!
The rest of the weekend was pretty lazy. My sister-in-law had her baby, Elizabeth Sophia, on Friday night, so we went to the hospital Saturday to visit. I was hoping Bekham would get the urge to join the party, but again, no such luck! It did however present the reality of a newborn to me! I can't believe I'll have one of my own any day now. Slightly frightening, but mostly exhilarating! We did decorate the inside of our house for Christmas (just in case the little guy comes before we had time to get ready!) The outdoor lights will wait until after Thanksgiving, but everything else is decked for the season... That's not true. I do need to find a stocking for B! I have plenty of time for that though! I do also still need to find some garland for the mantle, but all in due time!
Well I think that about sums it up! Here are some of the pictures I mentioned from our fall photo shoot! I will just share some of my favorites ... !
Yes, the photo above does look like I've stuffed a pumpkin under my shirt. I promise its my child!
Alright baby boy. The time is right! Come meet us!!!
