Birthdate. Well, at this point, we think that since we have heard nothing to the contrary that the C-section will be October 27th. I find it crazy to believe that in 14 days we could be parents. EEK! So much to do...so little time. I'm not sure what nesting is supposed to look like, but my desire to get completely organized and the house ready is certainly in overdrive.
Sleep. I think my body clock is also preparing for the upcoming changes in sleep times because for probably the 5th night in about a week, I'm wide awake and it is 12:51 a.m. This is actually on the early side of when I've been crashing lately. It isn't caffeine induced, either. I can go to bed with Mike early, but then I just lie there thinking. After awhile I figure that I might as well get up rather than do nothing. Then I'm up for hours. Mike still has to get up at 5 each morning, so he is sound asleep in bed and I'm wide awake in the office.
Names. We haven't picked them yet. We've got a list going of potentials, but nothing finalized. I think about that quite a bit each day.
Volleyball. Heading into the last two regular season games to be followed with playoffs starting the week the baby is born. JV is still on the bubble as to whether or not they will make it into playoffs. Varsity will definitely be in playoffs, but what remains to be seen is exactly which seed they will be going into it.
Basketball. Starts the next practice day after volleyball ends and goes through February.
There you have it. A quick rundown on the latest with us. One of my college friends, Kimmie, is in town until Wednesday and we've been enjoying catching up. With that, I'll probably spend a few minutes checking up on other blogs and try to get some sleep. Maybe I can fall asleep by 1:30...

I am so eager to meet baby Herriage. I am sure it is so much more for you. It's understandable that you can't sleep. So much has been on your plate this month. But once you have your little man in your arms, you can breath a sigh of relief.
Wow, Sandra! You are definitely in overdrive. I do the exact same thing when there's something big going on. Is it Kimmie McCleary that's visiting? If it is, give her a big greeting & hug from me, please. Have a great time together!
October 27 seems close, but when you put it in the number of days...WOW!
If you need anything or have any questions, please let us know. We are SO excited for you and we will be praying that you can get some rest.
Yeah, you're definitely in nesting mode, and your body is definitely getting you prepared for the new little one. I can't believe it's only 2 weeks away! That is so exciting! =)
Do try to relax a little bit, though. You don't want to start popping gray hairs before the baby even comes. =)
Hi!
This is SO exciting! Names are the hardest thing, wow!!! I can't imagine.
Don't worry about everything Sandra, you don't have to be a perfect parent, just a good one, be the best you can be and your baby will love you for that!
I can't wait to see pictures.
Not to be too personal, but are you planning to "breast feed" him? I read recently women can get the hormone to do that!!! How cool!
W/B!
Love,
Shannon
