Dun, dun, dun!!

Week 40 was upon us and we were excited as ever! We knew our time to meet BB was sure to be soon! After our 40 week doctor appointment we discussed with Dr. Madura that if BB doesn't arrive on his/her own that we will be induced on Sunday July 8th! It was then a waiting game....eeek!

Maternity Pics...Well Kinda

As this pregnancy is starting to (at least we hope) come to an end, we realized we needed to get a few pictures taken before BB's arrival! We bought a new snazzy camera around Christmas time, so we decided to attempt to take a few pictures on our own. We had to be fairly creative for the ones where all 4 of us were in b/c we do not have a tri-pod. Overall we were pretty happy with how a few turned out! Below are a few of our favorites that we put up in frames in our house....only to be replaced here soon I'm sure with pictures of the actual baby :)!















Week 39! Eeek!

Week 39 was a week filled with trying to find things to keep ourselves occupied. We didn't have any practices, games or other events on our agenda so believe it or not we did not know how to fill the time at first. We ended up rearranging the kitchen cabinets, cleaning, laundry, saw a couple of movies, rented a couple of movies, hit the pool at my grandparents for a couple of days and walking....lots of walking! When we went to our weekly appointment I was still dilated to 1cm, 70% effaced and the baby was at a -2 station. So nothing new had happened. Dr. Madura stripped my membranes (yes a little TMI sorry) but other than being a little uncomfortable and crampy it did not seem to do anything to get labor started b/c I'm still pregnant :). We are coming up close on the due date and I know we will get to meet our son/daughter very very soon. There is a light at the end of this journey. I'm really looking forward to our 40 week doctor appointment on Thursday, July 5th (obviously due date the office is closed for Americas birthday...apparently that's important too). I'm hoping we have progressed a lot more at this appointment and/or a plan is put into place for an induction! We shall see.....!!
