We're having a baby!

For certain, we'll be having a baby by the end of this weekend.

We just got back from the doctor's office, where she said I am finally making some serious progress. And since our ultrasound yesterday noted a still-large baby (8 lb 12 oz), they aren't going to let her wait too much longer to come out. SO... First, she stripped my membranes, which gives about a 50% chance of going into labor within the next 24 hours. My L&D nurse friend thinks there's a really good chance something will happen very soon. But just in case she's so stubborn that even that doesn't work, we're scheduled for an induction on Sunday - Father's Day - at 7:30 am. So either way, next week we'll be coming home with our little Eden.

Thought you all might like to know!! :) We're excited!!

YAY!!!! We're so excited for you both. What an awesome 1st Fathers Day! Try to relax, do a bit of walking, warm showers are great, and focus on that sweet lil'baby. If my arms could stretch you'd be getting a huge hug right now. Love you so much!

Here's hoping that her head is slightly smaller than 88th percentile... You and B are both are going to be amazing.

We're all rooting for a smooth, quick delivery!
