38 Weeks

Well... this will be the very last 'week' picture at home.  Next week (Monday the 12th - at my 39 week mark) we will be at the hospital being induced (if little 'e' decides not to come on his own before then).  I will probably still take a picture for posterity of how big I ended up - but it won't be quite the same.  (oh and before anyone gets worried about it - I'm not being induced for any 'bad' reason.  Just that he is average size, good and healthy and I am headed towards real labor already -or favorable as my SIL informed me- but getting very swollen (can you say carpal tunnel - ouch!) and uncomfortable so my Dr. suggested induction next week).  Its very crazy trying to wrap up all the loose ends at home and at work and feel 'ready' when you actually have a 'target date'.  Before it seemed like something that was going to come unexpectedly so if we weren't ready that would be expected - but now I feel like I have to have everything 'ready'.  (yes, thats the control freak in me - and I realize after Monday I will never ever have 'control' again - thanks!)
So here you go... 38 weeks.
