{Getting Ready...}

As many of you know, every time I have a baby my mom makes that child a quilt. This is the one she made for our newest!
{Really, the pictures don't even do it justice...}

{SO CUTE!}
She's so talented, its all hand cut and everything. All for our baby Shaely (as Alenna has named her...Ryan and I are still debating on names...)
So far we like Shaelyn McKell, we'll see what she comes out looking like!
This is the back.
I can't wait to use it!

{This is her Going Home outfit...}
So things are moving right along here at the Bergen house! I am 36 weeks by Dr's calculations, though we think I am actually closer to 38. Last night, I had about 3 hours of really strong contractions and Ryan and I were about to leave to the hospital when they stopped! I have been showing other signs of labor, which I won't go into, but things are happening, which is exciting.
Its just the waiting game now!

In other news, Ryan starts his volunteering at Banner Desert on Mon. We joke that he can work his shift while I'm up in maternity laboring, wouldn't that be funny timing??!
At any rate, we are excited about his program starting. In this market of 10% unemployment, we think this will be his strongest foot in the door...ps we should be hearing from his nursing school any day as to if they accepted him or not!

Stay tuned for fast times at the Bergens'!
