Any day now!

So, last week I went for my regular dr appointment, and she checked me. I was dilated to 1 cm and 25% effaced. As of yesterday, I am officially 3 cm dilated, and 75% effaced!!! Of course, I have just as good of a chance to go past my due date as I do going into labor tomorrow! I'm just glad things seem to be progressing :) The doctor did say she would see me next week for my appointment, if she doesn't see me before then.....



I didn't realize just HOW big I've gotten until a couple of days ago when Kendra and I went to Chili's for lunch. I couldn't fit into the booth!!! Literally, I was stuck. Luckily, the other side of the booth was a bit bigger so Kendra and I switched and didn't have to ask for a table.....whew.

On a lighter note, Jon has decided to not go on his work conference this next week. I am SOOOOO VERY relieved! Especially after the dr visit yesterday afternoon. Sam very well could make his appearance any day now, and it would be horrible if Jon was away.

Our house is a disaster area. My nesting phase went into overdrive a couple of weeks ago - poor Jon. I decided that the kitchen cabinets were hideous (which they were!), and Sam could not come home to a house with ugly kitchen cabinets. So, Jon sweetly agreed to paint them :) Our kitchen has taken over the living room, dining room, and other parts of the house. We got the insides painted and the facing painted - so last night, we put everything back into the cabinets!! The doors and drawers still need to be painted, but we will do that at our own leisure. At least the difficult part is done. Now, I'm frantically praying that if Sam decides to come early, he'll at least wait until after the weekend (and avoid the 11th - 9/11) so that I can get the house in order!

That's it for now!!!

You are a very cute pregnant lady and you don't look a thing like that giant animal in the picture--although I do know how you feel! We can't wait to meet Sam. It won't be very much longer now!!!
