Stubborn or Laid Back?

We still do not have a baby and we are trying to determine if that means that she is really laid back or if she is stubborn. Hopefully she is laid back! It's been a tough week but there is an end in sight. Our doctor will induce me on Tuesday morning if she does not arrive by then. That will make her 12 days late and he is not comfortable letting us go longer than Tuesday without an induction. We had an appointment yesterday and she looks great which was good news. He thinks she is around 8 pounds 4 ounces. We are very anxious and hope that Mary Beth will arrive this weekend. We know she will be worth the wait! Here is a picture of me at nine plus months pregnant. Hopefully we will have great news to share with you soon!

Nine plus months pregnant - June 26th, 8 days overdue

The day we have waited for but something is missing...

June 18th is our much awaited due date but the day has come and will soon pass and there are no signs of a baby being born today. I went to the doctor yesterday and nothing has really changed in the last three weeks. The doctor wants to induce labor if she does not arrive before Monday, June 29th. We really hope that she will be born before that date as that would make her 11 days overdue! We are very anxious and ready to meet our daughter so please pray that we will have a baby sooner rather than later! The anticipation is too much! :-) My last day of work was on Tuesday so it has been nice to focus on doing some things around the house and to try to get as much sleep as I can. Please feel free to send any advice on how to get this little girl motivated to come out!

Two weeks and counting

Our bags are packed, we're ready to go (well, we're not completely packed but close enough).....but no baby yet. I went to the doctor and I am dialted 1cm so only 9 more to go. That's progress people! We will be sure to post pictures and updates after she arrives for those checking in on the blog.

Dan and I are trying to do as many things as we can before Mary Beth is born so we are going out to eat, trying to get some sleep, watching movies and spending as much time together as we can. There were other things on our list of things to do but I'm too slow and tired (not to mention cranky) to do too most things these days. Although I'm sure we will miss it being just the two of us, we can hardly wait to meet this baby girl that we have been talking about and praying for, it's going to be fun!
