The Waiting Game

So, I wanted to do an update of what we have been doing while we wait, and wait and wait.
1. We got a new car.

The "Eddie" for Eddie Bauer Expedition. I know I didn't want a huge car, but it was Such a good deal we just had to get it. Now I just have to figure out how to keep groceries and anything else I put in the back from rolling around. It is super nice to drive and suprisingly easy to get into, even being... pregnant. (...Josh says I should not say Fat anymore, I am just pregnant)

2. We sold our Scion. Josh was very sad and I was kind of too. It was such a fun and zippy little car. It did not do snow however and we do get that here in Colorado.
I think we got over it when we put the baby seat in the Eddie. Bye bye Scion!

This is the nice kid we sold it to. (sorry buddy, you are now on the internet)


3. My mom wanted a picture so here is my 38 week portrait... and the other pics that Josh took to make sure you know how big I really am.





4. Other than that we have been going to the movies, watching movies on TV (free Starz weekend helped), fishing, reading, scrapbooking and playing on the computer. While I love getting caught up on reading and scrapbooking 2004 and 2006, I am ready to see this little guy!
I saw my midwife today and just as I thought, nothing is happening. She predicts a Mother's Day baby. I do not think that is very nice. That is a week past my due date! My mom says to plan for a week late and then be surprised if they come early. I keep telling him he is coming May 2nd. So, one more week baby!

Just Practicing

We recently had a little scare. Yesterday night at 10 pm I started having contractions. I was a bit concerned because it is a little early. I stayed up until 11:30 and they kept up about every 20 minutes. Josh didn't really believe me, even though he felt one. They didn't last very long or hurt a lot so he convinced me I should go to sleep. I woke up a couple of times and they were still there and then I could not go back to sleep. I was worried because it is too early and they do make you uncomfortable. So, in the morning they were still happening, but not any worse. I was starting to hurt other places though and I was worn out. I called my doctor and she told me to go to the hospital and have them check me out. I got dressed and drove to the hospital where they hooked me up on all of the monitors. I layed in bed and... nothing. They stopped and I just took a two hour nap. My mom said it was just practice. Josh said he was worried, but he stayed so calm. He says I tend to freak out, but I was grateful for his cool head and I had no idea he was worried! I say in the next two weeks, no more practice please!

I am New here!

Okay so I decided to start my own blog. I have been staying home and reading my friends blogs and after reading Jana's and her sister Jen's I decided I REALLY need to put myself out there. I need people and I LOVE hearing thier stories and about thier lives, so I should share my own too. I am not very good at this computer stuff so we will see how it goes.
