Still Pregnant.....

Saw the doctor yesterday and much to everyone's dismay I'm still pregnant.
We are having lots and lots of extremely uncomfortable contractions, but those too are just annoying and not even helping to progress. I am still just dialated to a one. For those of you who have been tracking since the beginning they have given me (changed) my due date once and for all. As of Saturday (07/26/08) I will be officially overdue :)
If by next Wednesday, these wonderful, not close enough together contractions, have not pushed me over the edge......my doctor will induce at 7:30pm. I see the light at the end of the tunnel.
Daniel is really excited to welcome his new sister. Everytime I say I am going to the doctor he tells me to tell the doctor that it is time she came home. When I told him the doctor said one more week - when asked when Boomshacalaca was coming home he proceeded to tell everyone that the doctor said a few more years. I guess he really does want mommy to bring home a baby elephant!

Baby Update

Saw the doctor yesterday and here are the stats...
We are still pregnant :)

We are dialated to a 1, but could walk around for at least another two weeks with little to no prgression. (However, I didn't dialate with Daniel until after they induced me....so there is hope)
We are 70% efaced
We are having lots of contractions, but nothing exciting enough to go to the hospital or at least not yet.
Baby weighs approximately 7lbs and the doctor says she has the potential to gain at least another pound or two before she arrives... (I guess Dave and I only know how to create big babies)

My thoughts....it's hot, it's hot, it's hot and the baby knows it so she is okay staying in the womb as long as she can where it is the perfect temperature!

4th of July



Here are just a few shots of how we celebrated the holiday!
We started the day off by swimming with a BBQ at my parents house (forgot camera!)
Then we all took a nap - yeah :)
Then we finished the day off with fireworks & a BBQ @ Lillie's House. The above pictures are some of the excitement!
