Final Days

Hello out there. I'm still here. I'm still pregnant. Very pregnant. But not for long :) Baby will be here next week (scheduled C-Section).

I'm actually 38 weeks now but haven't pulled the latest pics off my camera yet.

I am still working. Office jobs are quite nice for pregnant ladies. My mind has trouble focusing but I'm really trying to finish my current tasks and/or get them in a state that someone else can pick them up. While though I don't want to have a C-Section (repeat due to baby #1 being a section baby), it does make it convenient to schedule a leave from work. 

Last pregnancy my doctor wouldn't let me work past 40 weeks, but baby girl didn't make her arrival until 41 weeks. Since I wasn't haven't any complications my work wouldn't cover that last week as maternity leave. I had to use personal time. I was very frustrated. I yelled at the poor leave of absence support worker. I was expected to work 40 weeks pregnant against my doctor's orders? Major downside to being a working mom. 

At least this time around that won't happen. 

One BIG plus side to working is while on leave, Teagan will be at daycare. This gives new baby and I the same bonding experience that I had with baby #1. Just baby and I. And more time to nap instead of chasing a 3 year old around! I'm getting very excited to meet #2. 

I had a impromptu day off work today due to a power outage. I'm soaking every minute in of one of the last few days of just Teagan and I. We were girly and went shopping (actually Teagan hates shopping but she was a good sport today). We found some ribbon on clearance so we spent the morning making hair bows. 

While she naps I thought I should catch up on my neglected blog. I hope to write a couple of posts and schedule them to publish this week.  When #2 is here, I will try my best to let you know!

I realized my pictures are very out of date. Over a year old. Maybe while on leave I'll have a chance to update this blog's layout too. 

Love,
