Last days as the baby of the house

Someone around here is NOT having a hard time waiting for the baby to make her entrance... Little Johnny cat has a rude awakening coming when our little one makes her big debut. For the past few months, Johnny has been the lone cat in the house and thus the recipient of much attention and baby-talk. Although he will remain the solo feline, I am imagining that he will soon be jealous of much redirected attention and baby-talk. I think he will enjoy all the new smells around, though!

Despite our love for Johnny, the humans in the house are waiting for baby in a big way. Most first time mothers have their babies a week or so past thier due date (and mine is the 26th), so we could still have a bit of a wait ahead of us. I did a massive nesting house cleaning on Friday and Saturday, but other than that there have been no real signs of impending delivery. She could come any day, though. My midwife says that all looks good and baby will come when she is ready. We're ready when she is ready (and yes, we know that cats and pillows are not safe in the crib while baby is in there)!
