Baby time!

Tomorrow is the big day....baby girl Dean should be arriving sometime after my induction starts at 7:00am. After my doctor's appointment last week, my doctor decided inducing me was the best way to go. I was dilated at that point to 2+cm, which is a good start...and I measured at 40 weeks. Hopefully this will prevent the baby from being overdue and as big as Caleb was (almost 10 pounds!).


All weekend I was hoping to just go into labor and not have to go through with the induction...but no such luck. I guess I'm not meant to have babies early!! Marshall's dad and stepmom were in town to visit from North Dakota, but baby girl didn't want to cooperate and meet them early...we still had a nice visit. Caleb enjoyed spending time with them...they went to the movies and he went swimming a few times at their hotel. He's not afraid of the water anymore, he didn't want to get out this time! I didn't take any pictures during their visit...camera has been packed now in the hospital bag.

Baby's room is all ready to go now, thanks to Auntie Dua for decorating help and our new rug, too, from Grandma and Grandpa. Caleb is very excited...I hope he'll be excited once the baby is home, too. I am very nervous knowing what is coming tomorrow...I'm praying everything goes smoothly and our transition to a family of four will be an easy one! It's hard to really imagine life with 2 kids...our lives have changed so much since having Caleb. I'm just trying to enjoy my last day of pregnancy now...stay tuned for more updates once the baby is here.
