It's almost over!

WELCOME TO WEEK 37! First and foremost, happy belated Easter to you all! :)
I hope your holiday was full of family and faith. Ours definitely was...
as we spent Saturday hunting eggs with all Ansleigh & Aidan's cousins.. 
L to R: Christopher (5), Matthew (1), Jase (2), Mason (7 months), Ansleigh (6), Noah (1) and Aidan (1). 
They had so much fun searching for the 100+ eggs we hid at Aunt Fallon & Uncle Chris' house!

Secondly, WHERE HAS THE TIME GONE? Our 37 week appointment was this morning, and what a doozy.

Dr. Diamond said everything "looked" good, although he didn't do any actual looking just yet (we'll save that for next week). We heard Alivia's heartbeat, that sweet, sweet music, and everything seems to be going smoothly. He also told me that I had "dropped," which I could already tell based on this week's picture vs. last week's. We talked about the future, which is rapidly becoming the present, and although we won't know anything definitely until next Tuesday at 10:30 we might possibly have a baby much sooner than April 25th. Scary? Yes. Exciting? Yes.

I'm adding some pics of our baby girl's room... it's almost finished. ALMOST! Haha. Maybe (hopefully) it will be ready by the time she decides to arrive.


I've just put the kids to bed for the night and the house and Burnamville are equally quiet. With my husband gone to Savannah to take his insurance exam in the morning (good luck, babe!), Grandpa & Grandma gone to Jamaica for the week, Aunt Nicole not staying around tonight (she's due with baby Reese at the end of May, plus she has Jase to deal with) and my sister gone to the beach for a few days, I am a nervous wreck. It hasn't really hit me that I could go into labor at any given time until today/tonight. I keep telling myself that God wouldn't be so cruel, though.. because me having to drive myself and the kids to the hospital while in labor would be a sick, sick joke (but I guess a good story to tell one day). So, I think I'm really going to take it easy the rest of the evening, go get in bed, and try to go to sleep. I've been cleaning since I got home with the kids today, and I'll admit I've got pain in my hips/legs and up my back that is a little more intense than usual.

Until next Tuesday... unless we have a baby by then! :)

- From the Burnams, with love.

  1. I am so excited for you guys! My advise if you go into labor and no one is around...CALL 911. lol That would be a great story too, especially for the kiddos! Keep me posted! I can't wait to see pictures of Alivia!
