Rounding third and heading for home

I hope I used that sports metaphor correctly because I know absolutely nothing about sports!

I ordered a couple of space heaters yesterday for general use and to warm up the guest bedroom when people come to visit so nobody worry about the weather :)

I am wrapping up my last big project for work and then I'll make sure all my paperwork is up to date and clean my desk off. Then I'll go over things with my assistant and make a list of what I need to do on my last day (email on out of office, clean out anything I left in the fridge, make sure coffee supplies are stocked because I organize that for our office). I'm getting on top of my laundry so our bags will be easier to pack. The expectant mom we are matched with is supposed to be induced so we will have plenty of warning and hopefully no panicked middle of the night trips. I need to call the vet and make sure they will have room for the dog in January. I've started organizing a support team who can come and check on the cats (and maybe bring in the mail). We seem to be really tying things up.

My coworker gave birth to a beautiful baby girl last weekend and it was nice to see pictures of what we can look forward to!

The expectant mom is getting pretty sore and is ready to have the baby. Although I know she's ready to not be pregnant anymore, I don't know much about her emotional state. She asks a lot of questions about what we have bought to get ready. I really don't know what exactly will happen after he is born. I guess we'll just go with the flow.

  1. Sounds like you are ready. I'm keeping my 2 friends that have adopted kids up to date with your progress. They are anothter source of behind the scene support for you, too. I know you 2 will make great parents. I'm counting down with you. :)

    Can't wait to read "He's Here!" from you.

    Love you guys,
    Carol
