peanut and i had our check-up yesterday with our doctor and everything is moving right along as it should :) yay! the doctor said we are making good progress for a first baby. hopefully that means he'll show up right on time...but you never know! i am 1 cm dilated and had progressed to 50% effacement and peanut's heartbeat was about 140 :) she said effacement will occur before more dilation, so this was a good sign. he's definitely facing the right direction and moving a lot just like he should! i'm already a proud momma!
i have to admit i'm getting a little antsy now...the nursery is basically done, his clothes are washed, our hospital bags are packed and his carseat is even installed! i still want him to hold out for 2 more weeks, though, i just need to come up with a project to keep me occupied through the home stretch! maybe i'll tackle another sewing project...that would be fun :)
next week is my last week at work for a while. i'm planning to take a few vacation days before his due date to stock-pile some sleep and tidy-up the house for guests. i'm so excited to have some time off...but wonder if i'll drive chris crazy! i know it would be good for me to rest my feet and back, though, so maybe it'll be a good time to catch up on some reading and chick flicks :) i bet tilly will be glad i'm staying home with her. i'll have to get in some bonding time with fuzzy-booty before she's no longer an only child!
thanks for keeping us in your prayers! i'll keep you posted!

I am excited for you!
That's exciting!!!!! You just let us know if you need anything!
Yay for 1 more day of work. I hope your appointment today went well. I could use some chick flicks and female bonding if you wanna hang out next week before Peanut arrives. Can't wait till he's here!
