Being this close to having another child, I have been pretty distracted. I just thought I would let you all know, that as of this moment, Tiana still hasn't decided to show her face.

However, the minor, irritating, contractions have started, and I finally had to make some decisions about the birth that I had put off. Some of those involved figuring out who we were going to invite.

After lots of discussion, Scott and I agreed that we wanted a peaceful atmosphere this time. So we only invited our parents, and a few others. Danny will go to my parents home where he gets to play with Aunts and Uncles while the baby is born, then he can come meet her after the birth.

For those of you who may not be aware, we are planning a home birth. Daniel was a home birth too, and we love it. There is so much control over your own enviroment. This birth feels different to me then Danny's did. With Daniel, we felt it was important to be surrounded with family, and even some wonderful friends. We invited alot of people, and it was wonderful. Now, knowing my little son's outgoing personality, I can see why it felt so right to have so many people there.

This time, we feel the need for peace. I imagine that our little girl is going to be a quiet individual. This time it doesn't seem to matter who is there, so long as there is calm. I am not talking Scientology quiet. I happen to make noise while giving birth, and I am not going to be silent! However, it is more of a feeling than anything that we think will be important.

So, today I have my last (I hope) midwife appointment! I sure am looking forward to the post that introduces my little girl!
