Almost there.....I had a great visit yesterday with my doctor once again..I thought it would be my last one but we scheduled one more on the 30th of November. Since I am still scheduled to be induced on the 2nd of DEC at 8pm and more than likely deliver on the 3rd, the 30th seemed like a good bet to have my last appt. Although I will say that the doctor said I am "Thinning" but still not dialated "closed for delivery" as she says...but the baby has dropped, head down and really moving which could mean she is preparing to come earlier than the 3rd. I have lots of fluid around the head and butt area and she says the baby is quite small. My guesstimate is that she will weigh around 6lbs when she is born but who knows, I know friends that deliver over 9 pounders when their doctors say their babies are small. LOL. I am still measuring small at 34cm so she hasnt grown much since she the ultrasound where they said she was around 4lbs 3+ weeks ago.
Our friend Emily, the muralist comes today to finish up the mural, add the name to the sign (as we have the name, we think, but still trying to keep it somewhat of a surprise), and some bugs to the garden and then add a little saying around the book shelf area. I cannot wait to see it finished as it is amazing today!! Thanks again Emily. Anyone need an amazing muralist that does so much more than nurseries, let us know.
We had the Porrazzo's over last night to watch the Chargers kick some serious Bronco butt...and Baby Max helped us pre-baby proof the house for our family with little ones coming for Christmas. It was fun to watch Max and Oscar(dog) play as it was hours of entertainment for sure. I am so happy that Oscar does well with kids!!!! Thanks for coming over Michelle, Joey and Max!!!
My mom and Earl come tomorrow for Thanksgiving at the Eads on Thursday. The Eads are our neighbors that cook up a Chef's FEAST for Thanksgiving. We actually invited ourselves over last year for this year and they are doing nothing less than GOING BIG again this year. Cannot wait. I just hope Baby C doesnt decide to come early with all of her activity lately as I really do want to have a good Thanksgiving with family and friends. We are then off to the Martins for a drink to celebrate the holiday as well...see you guys that night for sure. Thanks Deb, Matt, Leslie, Olivia, Dave, Amy and the boys for the invites! We are so excited to stay local for this holiday.
Well that is it for the most part. For those that heard about Oscar and his surgery, he is doing great. Got his staples out last week and I can't tell you how nice that was to have those out for MOM! He can lick away now without having to be yelled at and his scar is healing up nicely! I got big bandages to put over the top part and apply neosporin on it to help it heal faster but overall, he is back to normal. He has to limit his activity through the weekend but again, Oscar is back!!!
Have a HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!!! Next update will either be 2 days and counting for delivery or BABY C will have arrived. Pray she at least holds out until Sunday. I would love to have the weekend to get stuff ready for Christmas before she shows up but then again, we are anxious for her arrival!!
Love to you all.
Tracey
