mamma bear is here!

i love my mammacita!


we've been having a grand time ever since she got here two weeks ago! she came for the birth of her first grandchild, but since that hasn't happened yet, we've had to keep ourselves busy with..... well lots of things.
mostly its been getting everything ready for the baby- going shopping for supplies, and getting the nursery ready! last night we declared the room 'done' so hopefully this baby will get the hint and get here soon! we- well mostly mom, okay so all mom- have been doing some sewing and quilting, and visited tons of family and friends.
a couple days ago (on my due date!) mom decided it would be a great idea if we took matters into our own hands to get this baby out on her due date, and we got up on an absolutely gorgeous day and hiked the Y!

a great workout, we even passed a family on the way up, but to no avail- the baby is still in there kicking away! every time i look outside and see the Y now i think to myself- i climbed that when i was nine months pregnant! but i am not sure which is harder- doing that hike when it was 3 in the afternoon and over 100 degrees outside or being full term.... we did it in the same amount of time so i just don't know!


here's the latest pic- pretty much all belly, and a lot of swelling. don't judge!

Way to go! I'm super impressed by by your ability to hike the Y when you are about to pop...seriously, I struggle in my non-prego condition! :) Can't wait to see pics of the baby!

Hi Katie!
I Love reading your page...and I love the picture of you and your Mom!
You both look so happy and pretty.
If you can, post some pictures of Claire's nursery if you get a chance. That was always the funnest part about being pregnant, getting the nursery ready and picking out the name.
I keep looking each day for the new little love you will have....Im so happy for you.
say Hi to your Mom for me.
XO
