Life is good

Mom and baby are doing great. We are adjusting to life at home. Everyone was right. Things will never be the same. :]

Monday Update

We went to the doctor's office this morning, but had to see a fill-in. My blood pressure was running pretty high and my protein is up. The nurse told me I would be heading to the hospital to have a baby today. She hooked me up to a monitor to check on Abe. When the doctor came in she told me the monitor looked pretty flat, but she'd give it another ten minutes. When she returned she said it didn't look great, but she would go ahead and schedule my induction for Wednesday or Friday. We saw this same fill-in on the 10th while the baby was still transverse and she told us the baby had no chance whatsoever to turn. She was ready to schedule a c-section two weeks ago. Needless to say, we're very glad she's not our regular doctor. She got me in Wednesday morning at 8:00, but the nurse called not long after we'd left and told me she had talked to my doctor and she wants me at the hospital tomorrow night at 10:00. So if the baby isn't here by then it looks like we will have Abraham on Wednesday. =) Please continue to pray for us. We're still hoping things will happen naturally. I really don't want to be induced.

New Toys

Some of Chris' new toys arrived the other day and he's already gotten plenty of practice.

Due Date

Abraham was due today. It doesn't look like he's going to make his grand entrance just yet. My parents got here on Friday and my mom and sister just knew he would be here yesterday. We're all getting pretty antsy. I sure hope I don't have to wait until Wednesday to be induced. I go to the doctor in the morning. I'll update more then.

Happy 8th Birthday Megan!!

I LOVE YOU!!

Doctor Day

We got a pleasant surprise at the doctor today. Abraham turned into position. =) He was moving like crazy in the wee hours this morning and I think that's when he turned. The doctor couldn't believe it. She did two ultrasounds just to make sure. She was thinking that his fluid was down and we might have to go ahead with a c-section, so we had to go and get a better scan of him. Turns out the fluid is fine, he's just outgrowing his home. We go back to the doctor on Monday to see how things are coming along unless he decides to make his entrance before then. Thank you all for your prayers and suggestions.

Here are a couple of face shots. =)

39 weeks

We were 39 weeks as of Sunday. Abraham is still transverse. He has until Thursday to make his big turn. I've been given a lot of advice, and tried it all. I really think he is trying, he just doesn't have much room. Right now he has his head and his bum in my ribs.

I've been keeping myself busy cleaning and such. You have to keep the house clean when your parents are coming. =) I know it may sound a bit too early, but I've gotten our Christmas tree up and decorated. I wasn't sure it'd get finished if I waited. I need to get to the post office and mail my niece's birthday gift. She turns eight on Sunday. I can't believe how fast she's growing up. It seems like she was born just yesterday.

'Why Believe in a God?' Ad Campaign

I came across this story today. I have to say it's pure stupidity. Why should you believe in God?

"Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life." John 6:47

It bothers me knowing that many children will see this ad and have it stick with them. The whole point of Christmas is to celebrate the birth of our Saviour not to "be good" and get all the things on some stupid list. I'm so tired of the gimme mentality the world seems to possess.

The people responsible for these these ads hate God and think everyone else should too. They certaintly don't have a problem promoting their religion.

"The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God." Psalm 14:1

Ultrasound Day

We finally got our ultrasound today. The only picture we could get was of Abe's arm. =)~ He didn't want to cooperate and turn to face us. We found out he has gone from being very close to being in position to being almost breech. He's laying diagonally with his head to the left. The doctor said there is still a chance he can make the turn to be in position, but it's not likely. Otherwise things with him look great. I'm so happy and feel so blessed to be having a healthy baby. I really would rather not have to go the C-section route though. I'd appreciate your prayers concerning him getting into position and coming into the world naturally. I go back on Monday and we're hoping he will have gotten back around by then. He has been a mover from the start so we just need him to keep it up. =)
