Not Much to Report...

...no baby yet! Had my weekly appointment today and my doctor said that she isn't always right, but she predicts that I will not go past my due date as I am almost at 3 cm (yay!). Blood pressure is good (mostly because the summer reading craziness at the library has started without me, I think) and now it's just a waiting game.

I had a lovely shower on Monday night that they threw for us (it was a couples shower) at church. Mike and I were so humbled by people's love and generosity. We are looking forward to bringing Evan to worship with us! And there is a family shower planned for me this coming Saturday. (Hmmm, why does it feel like I just did the shower thing? Oh, yes, because a little over a year ago I was having wedding showers!) So, my feeling is, I can just enjoy the final shower and then go into labor and give Mike a son for Father's Day. Wouldn't that be nice?

I don't have any shower photos to post, but I am feeling huger than huge at this point and would probably not want to share if I did. So thanks for reading, and if you have any tips for inducing labor (besides the eggplant, gingerbread cookies, and castor oil ideas), let me know!

  2. Hmmm...maybe your firstborn son has made an appearance by now! I am praying he will be an easy birth and good at church(I did not make it through an entire service until Trenton was 8 months old)!
    Also? Long walks broke my water for 2 out of the 3 boys! Well a few hours later but I am positive the walking did it! Do you have a park or zoo nearby maybe?

  3. Nope, no sign of him! I did have a burst of energy yesterday and today but it's leaving me now and I'm starting to worry he'll never show up. :o) I will try a long walk tonight once it's cooler. Thanks!!!
