Nine.

Nine months - wow, I am so glad I am not an elephant because they
are pregnant for something like 2 years.
(21 months - thanks wiki)

She is as big as... an edible arrangement!
Garrett surprised me with this bouquet for graduation - yes it is all real fruit cut into adorable floral shapes and some covered in white or milk chocolate! Sound delicious? It is. Look it even came in a festive porcelain graduation cap with diploma! LOVE it!

NINE WAYS TO KNOW YOU ARE READY TO HAVE YOUR BABY:

(These may or may not have all been conjured up from personal experience)

1. You finished everything on your "to-do-before-baby-comes" list so you made a second one. Then you completed that list so you made a third one. Then you completed that list so you made a fourth one. Are you hearing me? Nuff said.
2. You get stuck in absurd positions trying to
painfully roll in and out of bed
3. There is a space about the size of a plate on the middle of your belly that is numb from stretching; feels just like my lips do after I get a cavity filled. The urge to scratch an itch is just not as satisfyable on a numb belly!
4. You waddle
5. You have tight shoulders because you compensate for waddling by holding your arms out about 3 inches away from your body... yes, a waddle and a flap...
quack quack quack!
6. You think about things like how grateful you are to not have a pregnancy that lasts as long as an elephants.. and you blog about it
7. Kids in their mom's shopping carts down the isle point and yell out, "Look mom that lady has a baby in her belly!"
8. You walk up to the salesman at Best Buy to ask a question about a camera and he greets you with, "Well Congratulations!" ... um haha.. thank you?
9. You are done with school and got to graduate, you are done with boards, you got your board results and PASSED!
I am officially a Physician Assistant - Certified! "Whew"

So basically we are ready for this baby to come. We have tried all the old wives' tales but nothing works ha - spicey food, jogging, stairs, we even googled some pressure points to induce labor.. nothing. She will come when she is good and ready, and we will be ready because it will be good to have her.
