EDD, gender, DIF clothes, and names.

So, we're almost 2 days away from our EDD (estimated due date). :)

The actual EDD should have been October 6th. But the GYN pushed it back a week to October 13th (because of my PCO problem). And then the ultrasound technician said the EDD should be October 16th. But we decided that pushing it back one week was enough, and left it at Oct. 13th. :)

There has been plenty of cramping and pain tonight. It is much more prevalent in the evening. Fredrik's guess is for tomorrow, so we'll see. :)

We are still hoping for a girl, I think. :) I think mostly because there are so few girls in Fredrik's family. Boys tend to run on his side of the family, while girls run on my side of the family. So, we'll see what we end up with. :)

Tonight we made a trip to the grocery store and finally picked up some plants for the baby's room and a new light bulb for the lamp in the window. And since it is dark outside earlier, and with the light, it is a very cozy room. :) A perfect, soft light.

Some of Sweden should be getting snow tonight! My first year in Sweden, I woke up to about 2 feet of snow on my birthday!! I couldn't believe it. :/ :)

I found some adorable clothes today.. a DIF outfit of course. :) (DIF is a Stockholm club, Fredrik's favorites for icehockey and soccer.) So, I think we are going to have to order these. :)





And then after Baby shows up, we will order either the pink or the blue set. :)







On the way home from Karlstad last Saturday, we were talking about how I wish we could use the name "Stephanie" for a girl. (For those that don't know, I have a sister that died right after she was born, her name is Stephanie Michelle, and she would have been 40 years old this year.) But Stephanie just doesn't work in Swedish, so Fredrik suggested we use it as a third name. :) So, if we have a girl, no matter what, her third name will be Stephanie. :) I was very happy for his suggestion, so that we still get to use the name (if Baby ends up being a girl).

I think that tomorrow I will decorate for Halloween. :)
