Happy Full Term Baby Day to Me (and Drake, and I suppose Damian)!

I've made it to a full 37 weeks pregnant, and the baby is not considered full term and can come whenever he wants and be totally great. I have reached the point where I cannot wait until he comes. The anticipation, the worry about labor, the stress of becoming a mom are all very present, and the sooner he comes the sooner I get to worry about new things. We're basically all set and ready to go; we're just waiting on Mr. Drake to honor us with his presence. Here's some pictures for fun!



Not exactly professional photos here, but it's cute, and much cozier feeling in person. Damian and I decided on a broadly "animal" themed room. Sure I loved some of the themed sets that Babies R Us had, but it certainly wasn't financially practical for us to do one of those. I figured lots of baby stuff comes with animals on it, we like animals, most kids like animals, and so we just went with the basic animal concept and rolled with it. Got a bunch of stuff as gifts and a bunch of stuff on clearance.

And here's a picture of me, looking ever so 9 months pregnant, and trying to smile so that Drake doesn't one day think I was anything but happy about his arrival. I just have one of those faces that isn't good at looking joyous. I always just end up looking constipated.
