Second verse, same as the first

Obviously no Morgan yet. Went back to the doctor this afternoon and I'm a "good 3". So, the plan is still to induce on the 18th unless something else happens before then. We were ready for her last week, but are slightly relieved we might have 5 more days just the 3 of us.
Here's the big belly earlier tonight. My doctor said I'm "at capacity". Not quite sure how to take that:)


Since we didn't know what would happen at the appointment, we took Mallory to see Santa today at the mall. She was not having it. Brad was holding her hand and we looked at him from afar. Then, he walked toward us and we tried to get her toward him, but she started moon walking away. We expected this from Mallory. She doesn't warm up to strangers very well...let alone a BIG guy in a red suit with a beard and a hat on! He was sweet though and they gave each other "boom" (pounds, fist, whatever your family calls it). He suggested bringing her back by throughout the week and then maybe she will warm up enough to get a decent picture. We'll see Santa.






While I've been waiting on Morgan, I've been getting the house ready for lots of family that is coming to us this year for Christmas. My decorations are up, the bathrooms are clean and the presents are wrapped! It's been kind of like our house is up for sale. Lots of picking up, cleaning and keeping things in order "just in case". I guess it keeps me on my toes!

Everything looks great!!! You look cute even "at capacity"!! I like Mallory's boots! Kaylee and Brooke have some very similar, but dark brown!!! Way to go on getting everything done early!!! It will be awesome to come home with a new baby to a clean house full of wrapped presents!

Capacity!?!?! I remember that feeling all too well! OUCH! I am still cheering for the 17th! ; )
YOU LOOK GREAT! I can't believe how well you have it all together. I would be in shambles!
We are praying for your family and Baby Morgan!
Lots of hugs.

Holy Cow! I am so impressed with all you have done in the midst of expecting a baby any day and having a toddler! I think that schedule is at capacity, not your cute little belly!
