...she continues to amaze us...

Tomorrow was supposed to be our C-Section but since Bailey decided to make her mom and dad happy and turn, we canceled it! YAY! I may actually be deliver the way that I have wanted. So now it is up to Bailey when she comes, because she clearly does not like to be forced into a schedule. We are so excited she turned since we thought for sure her staying breech was a done deal. The doctor was even pretty shocked that she turned! She asked us if I wanted to be induced at 40 weeks 1 day just to make sure she doesn't turn again, but we said no...let Bailey decide when she wants to come. Our doctor DID say that after 41 weeks she usually schedules to induce for safety reasons, I have a feeling Bailey won't make us have to go that route.

After we got the great news at the doctors we went to Pete's house to have dinner since my sister just got to town. Feels so nice to have so much support these days! Ali-Sun and I took a nice long walk after dinner which was refreshing, I was hoping it would help Bailey come...no luck yet. While on our walk, Pete and Wes put in the car seat, now they just have to get it checked. Notice I said they... I have enough to think about and get ready, so the boys can be in charge of that. :) That's what big brothers and husbands are for.
Tonight Wes and I went to a nice dinner, kind of a last date before the baby comes type of thing. It was nice to splurge a little and spend some time together, of course all we could think or talk about was the quickly approaching arrival of our little one. Wes took a picture of me before we left for dinner. This is the same dress I wore for my L.A. shower and my belly is definitely a lot bigger than it was then.The first week of school actually wasn't too bad! Monday kicked my butt since we were expecting a "honeymoon" stage and got the complete opposite. We have about 41 first graders in our class and a handful of high needs ones, so it is a bit noisier than we had anticipated. They seem to already be getting used to the rules and routines of our class though, which makes our job a little easier.

Let's cross our fingers Bailey makes her appearance very soon, like this weekend! She is due Tuesday but I would really like to meet her right now!

Any bets on when she is join us?

  1. Little Bailey sure is full of surprises, but considering she likes making you two happy... my bet is she will decide to come this weekend, since that's what mommy wants. No bets though!! I'm glad your first week went well. I'm getting more and more excited... I can't believe how you are feeling!!
