Will today be the day?
The question at the forefront of our minds :-)
So far today I've
- spent the morning lounging around in bed in my pyjamas until around 10am, dozing between bouts of Baby Girl gymnastics and contractions (which are getting stronger but still not occurring at regular intervals)
- went to the mall and bought a new pair of comfortable slip-on shoes that I can walk in but that won't turn the soles of my feet black! (Note to self: Do not buy any more shoes that I intend to wear barefoot that have black insoles, regardless of the material). The shoe sales lady asked me when I was due and when I said "Today" the look on her face was priceless. I swear she thought I was going to drop Baby Girl right then and there in the middle of her shoe department.
- went looking for area rugs for the TV room and Baby Girl's room
- came home and had lunch (leftover spicey thai food ;-)) after getting back into my pyjamas and sleeping some more.
- cleaned out the fridge (you don't want to know what I found. Ugh).
- folded clean towels
- started a load of laundry
- packed a box of dishes. Oh - did I mention that we're potentially moving on August 12th/13th? Yeah. Our house will be done next week! Wednesday is final inspection, Thursday is Architect/Builder photo day (so they can take pictures before we move in), Friday we'll move the stuff we've been storing in the basement up to the appropriate rooms and Saturday we'll move the rest of the house. By "we" I mean of course Tim and whoever volunteers to help us move. Because I'll be hangin' with our new Baby Girl, since she'll either have come by then on her own or we'll have been induced on the 10th. Oops... there - another teaser for the delivery date betters. Of course, if I am induced on the 10th we'll probably NOT be actually moving on the 12th and 13th but a few days later than that ;-)
Of course, all of that activity was interrupted every 10 minutes by the need to go to the bathroom. Which was likely induced by the copious amounts of water I'm constantly drinking.
No Baby Girl yet though.
But the day's not over! ;-)

Sounds like you are getting that "nesting" thing started. Good sign Baby Girl is on her way. If you run out of things to clean and fold, come on down to Monmouth
