I'm sad to say I won't get to be a part of Tori's big day. Since the baby will be born tomorrow hopefully and I won't come home until Thursday, there's no way to make it to the wedding. I am really sad about this. Tori is one of my dearest friends and I just hate to miss her special time. I know it will be beautiful and I can't wait to see the pics and video. I must say that I really am so happy that Tori and Bryan are together. They really are perfect for each other. As I write this, I think about all the crazy things the two of us have gotten into over the years. From prank phone calls to exotic trips, we really have had a blast. Even though I will be missing the wedding, I will be thinking of Tori. So, Toe Toe, here's to you! I am so lucky to have known you most of my life! I know you and Bryan will have lots of love and happiness!
Today is the day that Peggy is due. I am officially 40 weeks. I can hardly believe that the day is finally here. For the last few weeks, I have been anxiously awaiting her arrival. I go to the doctor this morning to check my progress and then on to L & D tonight to get prepped for tomorrow. There is a chance I could go in earlier today but I really think it will be tonight. It is so weird to think we will have a new person in our house the next time we are here together. My new thing is wondering what in the world she will look like. I had a head full of hair and Steven had a Mr. Clean head. Who knows. I really just hope she is healthy and safe. I'll keep you all updated and post pics as soon as I can get to our laptop. Wish us luck and lots of prayers!
Today is officially Gwen's last day as the baby in our house. She has all day until we go in tonight to start things moving so we can have our human baby tomorrow. To provide you all with a little history on Gwen, she got very sick last Labor Day and, as a result, became even more spoiled by her dad, who used to hate her. One of the things she aquired was a pink cat bed. She loved her bed so much that when she got her stitches out, we upgraded her bed to a super deluxe tea cup style bed. We were sure she would just love it. WRONG. She turned her nose up at the teacup bed and continued sleeping in the old plain bed. Over the last ten months or so, we have tried to get her to sleep in the teacup bed. Fast forward to this week, where I have been sleeping in the room with both cat beds ( I cannot get comfortable in our bed). Violet decided she wanted to sleep in Gwen's regular bed while Gwen and Tiger have slept in the human bed with me. To my surprise, this morning, I found Gwen in the teacup bed! She was all the way in the bed all curled up! I don't know if she got mad because Violet was in her regular bed or if she knows something is up. W'ell see how long this lasts. Enjoy the pics of Gwen's old bed and her teacup bed.
When will our little baby get here? Yesterday at the doctor, nothing had changed. So, I have another week to go now.(unless she comes on her own) The good news is that I will be induced Monday night/ Tuesday morning. We will go in Monday night for the preliminary stuff and then start the main things early on Tuesday morning. I'll keep you all posted and we will post pics as soon as we have some!
I feel so bad that I haven't written about my brother's exciting news! He is engaged to his girlfriend of several years, Lesley. (finally). We love Lesley and I couldn't hand pick a better match for him. They are planning a June '10 wedding at Outer Banks, NC, close to where Lesley is from. I can't wait for next summer and all of their wedding festivities!
Technically, we have 12 days left. At the doctor on Monday, I learned that I am dialated one centimeter. ( Atleast it is starting.) My doctor told me that if I have progressed somewhat by Monday, we can induce. Otherwise, it will be another week which will take us to July 27th, her due date. I did lose the mucus plug yesterday (I know TMI) so maybe things are starting to happen. I am getting very bored and just in limbo here at home. Steven comes home tonight from California. He had to go on Monday for a very important trip. Now, I finally feel like I can have the baby now that he will be home! I'll keep you all updated and let you know when we are on our way to the hospital. Everyone asks me what is my gut feeling about when I will have this baby. I don't have one yet but I'll let you know when I do!
