38 weeks!


I was 38 weeks on Monday.
I cannot believe we are SO close to meeting our son.
I'm trying to stay patient.
Trying.

At my 36 week check up I was
one centimeter.
At 37 weeks, still a one.
I go tomorrow and I'm really hoping
for more progress.

She will also strip membranes
if he's low enough to do so.
Last week he wasn't.
I was just a little bummed.

I'm ready to
have my body back :).

If he doesn't come by next Friday,
November 4th,
I will be induced.

My husband can't take off any work
except the day of delivery
so a Friday birth day is ideal for us.
Maybe he will choose to come this Friday? :)
A girl can dream can't she?!

amazing weather

It feels amazing here today.
Like I can't even describe it.

The high is 68.
It's incredible.
Finally some open window weather :).

In celebration of such amazingness
I got up and met a friend at a local pumpkin patch
then we headed to the zoo.

Fresh air all around.








It's good to have friends :D

36 weeks!


I have made it to 36 weeks with my little mister
and I can't believe it has gone by so fast.
I go to the doctor tomorrow and I
PRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY
I have some sort of progress towards going into labor soon.
My body is in terrible pain.
I have no idea how I will make it another 4 weeks.
IF I make it another 4 weeks.
We all say that don't we?



We made it "home" and our house is coming together nicely.
I'm enjoying it...mostly.
I am not, however, enjoying the hardwood floors
ALL over.
I swept AND mopped the other day
and it took a good two hours
and I paid for it greatly in my back.

I'm having a slightly difficult time creating a new schedule.
(I always do with change)
And I feel like once I do get it down it will all change again very soon.
Thankfully I do know that Isabelle naps from 1-3
and the girls go to bed at 7 PM every night.

We don't know much about the hubby's new schedule just yet
but until November 4th he will work/train
7a-4:30p Mon-Thurs
and 7-11 Fri.
That has us feeling fairly normal right now.
But again, that will change just as our son arrives
and out of whack we go again :).

So that's my update.
