Sept 28, 2014- still pregnant!

I am only 2 days until Brody's due date and he is being a stubborn boy! We are all ready to meet our little guy! It's definitely a waiting game at this point in time. I am trying to not get frustrated at the fact that I am still pregnant. I have been having subtle contractions for the last three days but not the real thing yet. Everything still looks good as far as keeping him in my belly so the doctors are not in a rush to induce me or anything like that. We are very blessed that he is healthy and so am I. I go back to the doctor on Wednesday Oct. 1, the day after my due date to get checked again if he hasn't made his arrival. Let's hope I don't have to make it to this appointment! 

Everything is completely ready for baby's arrival. His room is ready, the car is packed, mom and dad are ready, and so is everyone else. Now we just have to convince Brody that it is time for his debut into the world! Fingers crossed that he comes TONIGHT!!! I feel like I have been saying that for about 2 weeks now. Well, maybe because I have been saying that! Weeks 37-40 have been tough. I am huge and uncomfortable but I am sure it'll all be worth it once he is here. 

Friday was my last day of work. Yes, I am the crazy one who worked until 4 days from my due date. It was hard but helped me keep my mind off of giving birth and when he would come. I was very tired after work each day last week but now I am rested and ready to meet him!  Jacob still has class and everything so hopefully I will go into labor when he is home and not have to worry about contacting him at the school. Good news is that he doesn't have patients scheduled this week so he will not be in the middle of a dental procedure when and if I do have to call him there. 

We are very anxious to meet our son so hopefully he decides to come ASAP!! =) Today (Sunday) we are being lazy and resting up. We've watched tv and washed loads of clothes. Jacob swept the floors and dusted. (Maybe we are nesting a little bit?!) Now we are sitting on the couch basically waiting for labor to start. Will it ever? lol.... Later today we plan to go to Cooper's Rock to walk around and make s'mores and hot dogs. It's a beautiful day out so we are going  to make the best of the afternoon together. 

=)
Until next time,
