Being Induced Today

I am writing this in advance...but not letting it post until Wednesday. We are heading in Wednesday morning to be induced. I am SO nervous. I think it is scarier the second time around knowing what labor & delivery is like and also knowing how difficult it can be to care for a newborn while recovering. Plus, now I have a toddler to take care of too and a husband leaving in less than 2 weeks. Scary!
Nevertheless, I am so SO SO excited to see our new baby girl and to hold her in my arms. I can't wait to introduce her to Taylor. He talks about the 'baby' and pulls out her things to look at and cuddle and say, "Aaaw" about all of the time. I know he will be an awesome big brother. I'm only just a little sad that he won't be the baby anymore.

I got a pedicure...so I guess that makes me officially ready-haha! David & Tay resting up together in preparation for the big day...A big surprise...my sister Bonnie decided last minute to fly here from Germany for over a week to be here when the baby is born! She is pregnant too - due to have a little boy in September!!! We took a "Peterson Pregnancy Progression Picture"
Mary: not pregnant, Bonnie - 20 weeks pregnant, Heather - Full Term & ready to pop!

Taylor is usually in my pregnancy pictures, so I had to let him have his own picture on the stairs with some leftover balloons from David's party. You can tell by his cheesy smile that he was pretty happy. :)
