So I’m in my 39th week of pregnancy now. Due in 6 days, officially. We have no idea when Bean will be born, but at this rate, I think she will go past her due date. Husband seems to think she’ll make her debut the day after our wedding anniversary (July 22), on the 23rd. That will be kinda neat. We can have dual celebrations every year for the rest of our years. Very neat. We’ll see. There’s no telling really, and I haven’t gotten any more signs of labor.

Today was a nice day. Julie and Megan (part of the pod from our graduate days together) came up to Canada to visit me. We spent a lot of time talking and laughing, checking out the baby’s room (they love it!), and then we went to White Rock Beach to mosey around, have some awesome Japanese food, and walk along the beach. I even had yummy Gelato ice cream. Yum! It was really good seeing them today. I’ve been kind of lonely after I stopped working and am literally “house bound.” It’s nice to have some friends visit. I’m hoping Jenbug and Martha will be able to come up soon too. It’s really nice that Husband is also at home, so I’m not so lonely. We’re so in love right now, with the baby coming. It puts a whole new, interesting, exciting, and beautiful side to our relationship, our marriage. We’re spending a lot of time laughing and talking. It’s very nice.

Plus, he’s been making about 3 trips a day to the store to fulfill my spontaneous pregnancy cravings. I’m going through tubs of orange sherbert ice cream, many Spanish mangos (mmm), and milk. Lots of those. For whatever reason, I can’t get enough of those three. Yummy.

Husband is making us some fried rice tonight. Mmm mm mmm!!

(Psst… anyone need some Dymo labels?)
