39 weeks :)Hot diggity dog! I am in the home stretch. Yippee. I had my 39 week appt today and she said I am almost 3cm dilated. WOOT WOOT! Let's get this party started, that's what I say. :) My week is going to be interesting. In the next hour we are dropping Brody off with his Grandma and Grandpa. They are taking them home with him until after the baby is born. I can't believe that I won't have to worry about where he is at or getting him somewhere before we go to the hospital. It just worked out that they were coming to the area for a Dr. appt and we asked if they would take him home. So they are. :) We are planning to make arrangements to have him picked up before I leave the hospital, we would still like him to come to the hospital to see his new baby brother. Soooo... I will possibly have some time at home alone. I can't wait to sleep in tomorrow. At least I hope my body let's me because lately it's been more about my mind and body waking me up then Brody. I can take a nap at any point in the day or a shower and I will be able to run errands in the middle of the afternoon if I need to. How crazy?? HOwever, I could also go into labor at anytime. So we will see. :) Regardless it gives me peace to know that he is taken care of. Friday I am turning 33 years old. Can you believe it? It would be great not to be in the hospital on my birthday... hmmmm??? I wonder what my chances are? AND my mom is coming into town this week and will be here for a while. Not to mention that I might have a baby this week!! So there ya go. My weekend was a little tough. Not really but you know how it is at the end. I had signs that made me think I would go into labor and I felt awful all weekend. Got sick to the point of throwing up and then NOTHING happened, you know at the end when you anticipate it really messes with your emotions. However I got over it. It felt good today to have my appt, and know that there is progress and now I can just sit back, relax and let nature run it's course. Soon I won't be posting anymore belly pictures but BABY pictures. I can't wait to meet my baby.

Jen, I'm so excited for you! I know how it is at the end (and I guess I'm getting there soon myself, which is unbelievable!) What a blessing to have someone be able to take Brody for you this week... to know he is well cared for must be a huge relief. Now you can focus on resting up for Baby! I can't wait to hear all about his arrival and see pictures! :)
