Countdown Begins!!!!!!!!

Last Day of WORK!!!

So this is my very last day of work at the bank EVER! This is Carl's last day too for the next few weeks so it was easy for us to roll out of bed this morning and get going! I knew that once we got to the weekend it would go by really fast and it has! I can't believe we'll be going to the hospital tomorrow! I never thought this day would come!

This evening Carl and I will finish our very last child birth class (and ask any last minute questions!) and then we'll try to get a good nights rest if that's possible. Our plans for tomorrow are to REST, REST, REST! I'm going to try really hard to relax as much as possible and to sleep in. Carl is going to make me breakfast in bed in the morning and we'll just take it easy until we leave for the hospital. We have to be there tomorrow evening at 5:00 pm and then they'll induce my labor early Wednesday morning. I probably won't be able to update my blog as good as Margaret, but I'll try! We may have a few select people do a lot of the calling once he's born but we'll try to have our cell phones on us as much as possible and update everyone as soon as we can!

Oh, and this weekend we had proffesional maternity pictures taken. My boss and her husband own their own photography business called Dodson Studio, www.dodsonstudio.com . I'm anxious to get them back and post some as soon as possible. I know they're going to turn out really good! Lots of them were taken in the baby's nursery. They're also going to come back when the baby is a few weeks old and take some pictures of him and maybe some Easter themed since it's his first holiday and all!! :) I believe she said they were going to post several of them on their blog online, so when they do I'll be sure to post the link so you can see several of them!

Wish us luck everyone and remember we can use all the prayers possible!! :)

Love,

Crystal

Yea for the last day of work! I know you are SOOOO relieved. I'm glad you're taking the day tomorrow to relax and enjoy your last day as a couple. You will appreciate that in the crazy weeks to come.

Don't worry about your blog...I'll take plenty of pictures when we come see you Wednesday and I'll post them on my blog, so people can go there and look, if they'd like. I gotta advertise Ethan's new second cousin!

Can't wait to meet little (fill in the blank) on Wednesday! (And know what his name is!!)

Have a great day tomorrow! :)

Thanks Margaret! I'm just couting down the next few hours until I get to go home! It's going to be a great day tomorrow!

Oh, and we ended up finding the perfect baby book at Walmart and in there it has a place for a photo and it says,
"My First Pal." I laughed outload and thought of Ethan instantly! I can't wait to get the boys together and take pictures of them!

We'll be in touch with any news as soon as we can! Can't wait for you to meet him and to hear his name! We'll be calling you on Wednesday!!!!!

I love the "My First Pal" page - how perfect! We'll definitely get some cute pictures of the two of them. Glad you found a good baby book!
