check. check. aaaannd....

So i painted my nails...hot pink.  I think that will look good in the hospital pictures. ;)


I completed my Master's Degree last night!!! I presented my two final projects right when I got to class, and then had to sit through 2 1/2 more hours of class. Oh well.


And now it's April 5th--my due date. So far I feel exactly the same as I have every other day. I didn't know that April 6th (or 7th or 8th or 9th...) even existed on this year's calendar because my mind kept stopping on the 5th.  I kept trying to tell myself that the baby will most likely come after the due date, but let's be honest....it's hard to not get your hopes up that it will come on the day that it's "supposed" to.  Today might come and go without a baby.  That will be weird.


But then we can root for baby to come on...
April 6th--Our 1,000th day of marriage!! (I haven't been counting.  I found out on theknot.com on our wedding website)
April 7th-Anna's Birthday
April 8th-Easter
April 9th-The day I would have to go back to school if he/she doesn't come before then
April 10th-The day we got engaged!


We have lots of good options.  We'll welcome you into the world no matter what day you decide to meet us, Baby H!

 Don't tell me this baby isn't ready to come out!







Hmmm....my notifications on my phone seem to indicate that something exciting is supposed to happen today. I normally don't have 19 emails by the early afternoon! I think I've got some Facebook notifications to check on!

foot massage

My friend, Jana, from our couples Journey Group always gives her pregnant friends a foot massage on the week of their due date.  So she invited me over today for lunch and a foot massage/pedicure.  It was so relaxing!  While we were eating lunch, her son (who is almost 4 years old) and I had a funny conversation:

Duncan: Do you have a baby in there?!?
Me: Yes. What do you think it is? A boy or a girl?
Duncan: A baby.
Me: A boy or girl baby?
Duncan: A boy.
Me:  Maybe...
Duncan: Open it and find out!!! 


P.S. my fingernails are still not painted.
