Baby Stuff - Swollen Ankles

Hi all -

Decided to immerse myself in baby preparations today. Got her crib all set up, and her mobile and her sheets and bedding are currently in the dryer after being washed in Baby Purex detergent. I'm thinking I'll throw another load of her stuff in and bring her dresser in from the garage and get it wiped down so I can put all her stuff away. Plus as soon as my uncle gets here he's going to help me move the huge chest of drawers over from my grandmothers so I can get all my clothing off of shelves. Over all everything that I've done today has made a HUGE difference in my room and opened it up alot. That and it's all stuff that needed to be done anyway prior to little miss coming home.

What do you guys think of the name Meighan Denise? Or Meeghan Denise?? Or Meeghan Denyse?? Or does it all sound bad?? Or perhaps Meeghan May? Or Meeghan Mai? I dunno... just some thoughts I'm having and the name Meeghan won't leave my head. Pronounced Me-ghan not May-ghan. I know I keep changing my mind but I want something different for her and that's different but not too far fetched. Or should I give her my name as in Meeghan Lynn?? That might be nice too all things considered.

Ok I'm sure I'm boring you all to tears with my baby yakk, but I am offically due tomorrow (Tam I wish you were here to hold my hand through this) and I am TERRIFIED if I let myself think about it too much. I didn't sleep a wink last night, too worked up about everything.

My friend (also happens to be Doug's brother) Nick and his best friend Dan were in a car accident yesterday afternoon, they're ok I guess, although I'll feel better when I've seen them myself. But Dan's car is totalled. Both Dan and Nick just got married - Dan on May 30th and Nick on July 8th so when I heard the news, my heart skipped a beat. (Reading back over that last couple of sentences it almost sounds like they are married to each other - they aren't. They're best friends but married to women) Not that it would bother me in the least if they were gay. And they both know that.

Did I mention how swollen my ankles are??? THEY'RE HUGE!!! I look like I'm walking around on two balloons instead of feet. Seriously - I would take pictures but it would make ya'll nauseous.

Ok I've rambled on far enough for one blog - I'll try to get some pictures of the crib to post and I still want to scan my ultrasound picture in so I can post it for Aunt Tam and all her Blog Aunt/Uncle/Grandparents to see.

Love you all,
Ter

Ah HA---we're nesting now are we???I feel your excitement - My vote is for Meeghan Lynn-- but they're all nice names, and shouldn't cause her any angst...:) You'll know who she is when you look at her--- Is anyone going to be with you through labour? Know that we're all with you in spirit and love-- love sue

Yup - I'm nesting BIG time. But I'm exhausted today and a little extra edgy given the circumstances. I have NO idea on a name - I keep planning and planning but I know it will all go out the window when I see her for the first time. Thats when I'll know.
