Due date - Hmmmm???

Well today is the official due date and thus far, no activity.  I was really hoping he was just waiting for the exact day! My next appointment is next Wednesday, so unless something happens between now and then, you'll hear from me on Wednesday. Hope all is well with everyone!

Latest doctor appointment

I went to the doctor today - everything still looks good. I'm 3 cm dilated and 50% effaced. At this rate, I should have the baby in at least 7 weeks - 1 additional cm dilated per week! I hope not!  Till next time....

Belly Shots at 39+ Weeks!

Thought we'd get a few last belly shots in before the big day! The next doctor's appointment is tomorrow. We'll keep you posted.

Fall in Seattle

As you can see, fall has definitely arrived in Seattle! We went walking around Greenlake and thought we would share some of the scenery.

Duck, duck... squirrel?

That's a big belly!

Pretty!

Look at all the colors!

Tortuga!

More pretty colors!

It's a heron enjoying Greenlake.

The problem with fall...

39 week update

I went to the doctor today - 2 cm dilated, but still no signs of labor.  Just a waiting game for now I guess. She said the baby looks good and whenever he is ready, we'll all be glad to meet him.  We took some pictures this weekend, so I'll try to post them later. The doctor thought the baby was over 7 pounds, and you can definitely see that he is bigger on the pictures. Hope all is well with everyone - send me your labor inducing thoughts please!

37 week update

I went to the doctor today. Everything looks great. She said the baby's head is low and I'm dilated 1cm, but she thought I still had about 2 more weeks to go.  We'll keep you updated.

Getting Ready for Baby!

We put a Pack-n-Play on the second floor so we don't have to constantly go up and down the stairs.

This is my new favorite seat! The ottoman is still on backorder.

Baby swing just waiting for baby!

As if we didn't already have enough trash cans... We now have one for garbage, one for recycling, one for glass, and one for dirty diapers.

36 3/7 weeks

Still growing... I'm starting to see the doctor weekly, so we'll keep you posted! FYI, this is where the first pictures of the new baby will be posted - no cell phones are allowed in the delivery room, but there's free internet!
