How Did I Know

I went in this morning for the first of the weekly checks (technically only 35 weeks, 5 days today, but it's my 36 week check up).  Wouldn't you know - 3 cm.  Juuust like with Everett.  I knew I would be 3cm.  There is no way it could be less with the way this boy is pushing on me.  Pretty darn sure he's head down too, so no extra ultrasound, no external version, just more kicks up in the ribs.  I do have to give this boy some credit though - he's not nearly as mean as his brother with the whole "feet in my ribs at all times" thing.  In fact, he generally keeps his feet curled up nicely and just stretches out to kick me in the side sometimes.  Everett never let his feet leave my ribcage area.  So anyway.  Yep, still have to keep the butt in gear to get everything done in time.  I'm trying to finish up my day care course TODAY so I can schedule my exam before I have a newborn in arm.  I'm also scrambling to get everything done for the county to certify me.  I need to take a 2 hour SIDS prevention class, sign up for a shaken baby syndrome class, get the cats some rabies shots....I got a TB test started today and need to have it read on Wednesday and still have a bunch of paperwork to finish and checks to write.  I also need to make laundry detergent and banana bread today and call my doula to reschedule our missed appointment last week when I was dying.

In baby world, I still need to:
-put together the crib and see if we can't manage to side-car it in our room
-rearrange the bedroom and move the desk upstairs in preparation for more baby gear and daycare downstairs.
-prep all my new diapers
-MAKE some new diapers
-set up more storage in the baby's closet
-pack the hospital bag and an overnight bag for Everett (just in case)
-get and install the infant carseat
-make a winter hat for baby

EEK!  Yeah.  But first, I am le tired.  So I shall take a nap.  And then FIRE ZEE MISSILES!  ahem.  yeah.
