Dear Liv,

Today Mommy had her 38 week appointment. You're measuring early, 39 weeks and 5 days to be exact, mommy is still having contractions, we're starting to dilate, and everyone cannot believe you're still in there. Daddy and I are so beyond ready for you. We have your nursery all done

I have all your blankets and clothes washed and smelling oh so fresh

and mommy looks like a house

Yesterday we celebrated Independence Day with the fam. It was pretty fun! Mom made nummy goodies then we went to the parade like we do every year

and mommy was very hot and uncomfortable

and swollen

Then we had a BBQ with the fam and went to watch fireworks

I don't think you were too fond of the fireworks, those mad jabs were not comfortable for Mom. I also can officially claim the title of stay at home mommy! had my very last day at Tai Pan last week and I've been busy nesting making our home nice and comfortable for you. Daddy calls almost every hour to see if anything new is happening with you. Grandma and Grandpa call as soon as they get off work and ask about our day. You already have some berry cute babe friends waiting to play with you. All of us are absolutely dying to meet you! So please, come out soon!
Love, Mommy.
