The Vardens: November 2009

Tomorrow will officially be the start of my 35th week of pregnancy. Overall things have continued to be uneventful. I have the typical pregnancy problems, the worst being back pain and difficulty sleeping. Other than those two issues everything has been great. We will be going back to the doctor a week from Wednesday to evaluate our status thus far. I am praying that this little girl is just so anxious to meet us that she will decide to arrive a little bit early. Our due date is the 22nd of December, but I would like for her to come at least a week early. I know that her birthdays are going to be difficult, but the farther away from Christmas the better!

We have several things coming up to keep us busy. This Friday and Saturday are full of wedding festivities for our friends Samantha and Ryan. On Sunday we will be celebrating my grandfather's and my mother's birthdays. The next week starts the Thanksgiving holidays. I will, unfortunately, be working on Thanksgiving, but I am already looking forward to some good leftovers. Next Friday is the Iron Bowl...War Eagle...and I officially set aside the day of the 28th to put up our Christmas tree. I really wanted to do this sooner, but there is just no time, and Keith is not very fond of decorating prematurely.

Hopefully, after all of the sweet chaos our little girl will arrive. I cannot tell you all how exciting and nervous I am for this day, but I am also beginning to realize that these last few weeks will be the conclusion of "just Keith and me." I am starting to enjoy those nights where we just sit and do absolutely nothing. I know that they are coming to an end or at least a significant decrease in number. Keith and I are trying our best to spend as much time together now, so that we can be ready for Ms.McKinley.

I really hope to post some pictures of some recent maternity pictures we have taken. I also have a belly picture from last week to post. Have a great week!

Love Wins!
