A week and a half ago, all I was thinking was "c'mon baby...let's get this birth going!", but then I woke up Sunday morning with a nasty cold and switched gears to "ok baby...a little more baking time would be nice to give mommy a chance to get healthy", so here I sit...waiting for the cold to go away and the baby to come.
I'm fine with the waiting as I'm getting more and more nervous as the days tick on, but I'm so anxious to meet my little girl, so it's a toss-up. Plus, I'm still feeling sicky sick, so the extra incubation time is a good thing.
I'm on maternity leave now, as of this week, so I'm spending my time soaking up all the extra rest and pug-cuddle time as I can before life as we know it turns upside down. Here's a pic of the puglets cuddling w/ my belly aka the baby :)
They are really enjoying the extra lovin' from mommy this week, that's for sure! I've taken lots of cute pics of them cuddling on my belly because basically any time I sit on the couch, they are all over me...I think they can sense that changes are about to occur or something.
Despite spending lots of time on the internet, I just haven't had the energy to blog, but I wanted to share a post from my friend Jeanne with pictures from the AWESOME baby gifts my knitting group made for Pumpkin & I. They all worked on a pillow and blanket set to match the nursery and Jeanne knitted matching booties for baby and socks for mommy!!! They are the best group of girls and have seen me thru this pregnancy since it was just me talking about wanting a baby soon but not yet even trying to get pregnant. I love these girls with all my heart and the fact that they all got together and took the time to knit these items for my little girl just shows what a wonderful group of friends they are! Anyway, thanks for letting me borrow your post, Jeanne! Soon I will take some pictures of the blanket and pillow in the nursery to post, but for now my camera is packed away in the hospital bag, waiting for the big day!
Ok, heading downstairs to make some tea and either cuddle with the puggers or work on some knitting...a blanket for the baby that will obviously not get done before she's born, but will be done someday, I promise!
I also promise to post an update with lots of pics when the lil girl decides to make her debut...and when we can finally share her name with the world instead of always referring to her as "Baby H" or "Pumpkin" :)

Lots of good luck :) I'll be thinking of you and pray that you get rid of that cold before the "BIG" day arrives!
Awesome gifts is right! Love the mommy and baby socks to match...amazing :) Enjoy and rest up...yes, a whole new world is on the horizon...a very good one :)
Aaaawh thanks! I hope your little girls makes her grand entrance soon - or as soon as your cold is past!
I did take some pictures of the blanket - they are up on flickr but I haven't had a chance to blog them yet.

Oh and your pugs cuddling with your belly is the cutest thing ever. Dexter has started to do that to me now - not sure if it's because he's cold or if it's because there's a baby in there!
Post a belly shot!
Feel better soon!
Wishing you an easy and fast delivery.
I read another blog who is due tomorrow. I wonder which baby will come out first!
Can't wait to meet her!
that's such a cute belly shot! I wonder if your little puglets can feel the baby in there moving around.
good luck keeping her in for a few more days! I hope your birthing goes fabulously. :)
