Still Waiting

Well, we are STILL waiting to meet this little girl. My due date is tomorrow (the 20th), so maybe she’ll be like Noah and come on her due date. I think I must make it a little too comfortable for them in my belly. But lately, I’ve been trying to “force” her out. I’ve been eating some hot stuff, going for walks, or just standing around hoping that gravity will do it’s part and help this baby come out! All the walking and standing has had an opposite effect on me though – I had a doctors appointment yesterday and my legs are starting to swell up. I was told I need to relax and put my feet up. So what did I do??? Well, Rick did make me lay down during Noah’s nap time, but then me and a neighbor took the kids down to the park. Then we went to Taco Bueno for dinner. I loaded my tacos with jalapeños and salsa, hoping that would do the trick! Then we thought we would stop at Sonic for some ice cream (this is what I was eating with Noah when I went into labor, so figured it wasn’t going to hurt!)

My mom is on her way down as I type this. She has the next week off so she’ll be a big help when we have this little one! If I don’t go into labor by Monday morning at 7 am, then they are going to induce me. I’m not too excited about being induced, but at least there is an end in sight!!!

The photos were done by Amanda Trei with Bits of Life Photos a few weeks ago. She only lives a few miles from us and when she found me on Facebook, we started talking and she was willing to take some photos. She is also planning on doing some newborn photos too!!!!

Well, hopefully the next post will be that we have a healthy baby girl!!!!
