36 weeks - almost there!

Well, here were are at 36 weeks - it's so hard to believe we are getting so close.  Next week we will be considered full term and the baby could come at any minute and be ready to live and breathe on his own.  I think we have everything ready - we have all the supplies we need, all furniture set up, work plans in place, and hospital bag all packed. It's all just a waiting game now.  Now, I don't think you are ever really prepared for what's going to happen in the hospital or how crazy life will be once he's here, but I can certainly say that all of the tangible things are ready to go.
My friends have planned a girls' night out for this weekend as a last hurrah  before my life changes forever.  They are so thoughtful and I can't wait for the fun time. 
I had my last shower yesterday - thrown by my boss and coworkers.  It was so so nice - they are so good to me and I'm so lucky to work with such generous people.  I got 3 homemade blankets, homemade burp cloths, and so much more. 
Friday I go to the doctor and then I have to go every week after that.  At this appointment, they will start checking my cervix to see if there is any dilation.  Say what!? That's nuts.
