Five weeks doesn't feel like very much time. That's about a month. Wow. On the one hand, I'm anxious to meet our little girl and wish time would fast forward. On the other hand, I think through all the things we have left to do, (and the intimidating process of going into labor) and I pray she doesn't show up anytime soon!
This weekend we had some more car trouble to deal with. We are working hard to find a house because we have less than two weeks until we have to be moved out. We have a number of prospects, but nothing is set yet. Also, Michael is going to be out of town for three days this weekend...we're praying especially that Baby Chapman doesn't decide to make an appearance then. I am trying to think through all the loose ends I need to wrap up at work over the next couple of weeks. We have quite a few major baby items we still need to purchase. We need to pack a bag for the hospital, find a pediatrician, make some decisions about immunizations, finish reading "On Becoming Baby Wise," pack our entire apartment...the list goes on and on.
I'm beginning to sleep much less comfortably which means I feel sleep deprived these days, but I just see it as practice for all the sleepless nights in our near future.
We are both so excited and can't wait to meet our baby in a few weeks. We are so thankful and so blessed by this gift from God. It's been a long journey, and we are so thrilled that we are about to become parents. I can't imagine a better father than Michael...I can't wait to see him be a dad.

You'll get it all done! :) And whatever doesn't get done, well, it will be okay!
Oh, and if you have any hesitations about vaccines just wait. You can always get them later! Depending on the state law they may require the Vitamin K shot, but other than that none is required at birth. :) I highly recommend The Vaccine Book by Dr. Sears. We use the extended schedule he provides.
You guys will be fine! :) She will make her appearance when God allows...have no fear! We will be praying you guys find a house and get everything done on your list...if not, it will be ok! :) God is in control of your labor and delivery, it will be just fine no matter what! :) Relax while Michael is gone...can't wait to hear the good news about baby girl!
