Ty and I must be in complete denial that there is a baby coming in the next few days (5 until his due date, 12 at the very longest). We have a lot ready for him~ the crib is set up, the little bedding is in place. His closet and dresser are stocked with tiny clothes, socks and shoes. Last night we finally set up his bassinet. And we have his swing and exersaucer in their boxes ready to go as soon as he needs them.
But when it comes to the important stuff~ we are totally slacking! We have not packed our bag(s), do not have a car seat or stroller, do not have a coming home outfit and we only have one small pack of diapers (and we only have those because my mom gave them to us!)
It is so funny~ when we think about doing stuff to get ready, we do things like stain a shelf, or buy a little blanket, or hang up some wall hangings. And it isn't like we can't do the other things, we just don't! Like I said before... DENIAL! And I don't think it is really denial about having him here, but more about the denial of getting him here.
Today's goal~ (and I am saying this out loud so I am held to it)~ GET THE HOSPITAL BAG PUT TOGETHER!!
Okay, I'm off to my 39 week appointment. Wish me luck!

You guys will be just fine. I am however going to strongly recommend you to get that hospital bag together, especially due to the fact I went to my 37 week checkup and they sent me straight to the hospital and would NOT let me go home and get my things. Other than that, you just need some diapers, lotions, gas drops, and most of all a car seat!!!! Good luck to you guys.
I can't believe the time has almost come. It will be delivery day before you know it!! I'm so excited for you guys. And don't worry, you never can be completely prepared but it will all work out.
