I still havent heard anything from the doctor. I actually called today...yes I was one of "those" people. They said it might take another day or two.
I truely have the most amazing friends and family.
My sister in law Angela asked me earlier this week if I would be able to watch Addy this past Saturday because she had to work, and my brother was coming home from Florida. I wasn't going to pass up the opportunity to spend time with Addy so I said yes.
Late morning, my friend Adele calls and asks what I'm up to...I tell her I'm watching Addison and she asks if her and Christy can bring lunch and come hang out. They come over and visit for a few hours...she's asking me where Angela was and what Joel was up to...and we make plans for Adele to come to my house after I'm done for me to cut her hair. When they leave Adele says to call her as soon as I'm leaving and she will meet me at home. During all this time I'm trying to get a hold of Liz because we were supposed to go to a movie that night and she's not answering and I've talked to Joel a few times who seems to be taking FOREVER to get home from the airport!!
Joel finally gets home and I visit with him a little bit when Angela calls...she says she didn't get a break at work so she was going to get some lunch and then she'd be home. Joel calls her back and says he's going to meet her at Red Robin. I head home. I call Adele to let her know. Then my mom calls to find out when I'm coming home...I tell her I'm on my way. I walk in the door and all the baby shower presents that were taking up the living room were gone!! My mom says "I put some stuff away...come look." My bedroom door opens and there is Angela and Liz and Adele and my grandparents!!! The totally re-did my room to accomadate the baby furniture. They put the crib together, my grandpa made me a new bed, they decorated...it was the most amazing feeling...it is so beautiful!!
They had been planning this for weeks...it's funny because when I look back now I can remember things that might have made me question, but they were good! I even drove by all of their cars parked at the Christian School on my way home! This was my sister in laws idea and I can't thank her enough for loving and caring about me and my baby to want to do something that like that for us. The room is now ready for her and it's such a huge weight off of my shoulders. I feel prepared now so whenever she decides to make an appearance I'm ready!

I remember the days of measuring 4-6 weeks before my due date. Of course I did the wrong thing and looked on the internet. But everthing turned out great. He was a big boy with a big head I was so happy that the doctors said a c-section would be less of a risk.. How big are the estimating?
I didnt measure big and Olivia was still almost 9 pounds, if I can have that big of a baby you can too!! Dont worry plus big babies are cuter then those scrawny little newborns anyways!
