We've started our 40th week of pregnancy. According to baby development calendars, everything is formed and ready to go. Our little girl is just growing, putting on pretty fat, getting strong and getting immunities boosted up, plus maybe some lung development. The doctor checked me again and I'm dilated to a 2 and 50% effaced, which means that I'm further along than I was with Ivan, so that's good. Her head is in good position and it's just a matter of time. It's weird thinking these are among our last visits and that we'll soon be leaving a hospital with our daughter in hand.
Mom is arriving tomorow and dad comes in Thurs. I asked the doctor if she was on call this weekend and she's not, plus they are closed July 4th, so I figure a good day for our baby to come is her due day the 3rd, a week from now. We don't want to be induced though, so we'll just see when she makes her grand debut!
It's cooled off today with some light showers, so everything feels fabulously cool, Ivan is down for a nap, projects are done, the house is fairly clean, family is coming and we're about to have A BABY GIRL!!! Yee haw!
These are pictures of someone's baby at 39 and 40 weeks. Amazing huh?

Almost time!!!!!
Prayers are being lifted in your behalf!!
Keep us all posted.
I keep checkin the blog daily to see if there's a birth announcement yet....I am becoming obsessed! Funny how it's WAY more exciting when you're waiting for someone else to go into labour!!! Anxiously (not patiently!) awaiting your royal arrival of the lil princess!!!
I was up at 4:00 am this fine Tuesday morning to drop your mom off at the airport. Her arrival time in DFW is 16:40 on the E75 from Toronto.
Love you lots.
Anyone who not only remembers and aknowledges Love Kitchen, but also PRAISES it, must be a fairly wise one. Thanks!
