38.5 weeks...come on little boy!

Roscoe still finds room

Went to the doctor today...our weekly dates have made the invasion of my privacy seem much more common place. I'm now 75% effaced, still 1cm dilated and he measured 39cm, meaning he floated back up, and a heart rate of 152 bpm. Dr. Arronte said she is very happy with how he's doing and she still thinks it will be a few days after the due date. Honestly we would be just fine with that...or I would...because she will be back from her very short vacation around christmas eve just in time to take care of this little sweets.

Andrew's co-workers threw us a little baby shower! I never knew people loved babies so much! They made cup-cakes that had blue icing, rice crispy treats, we brought fruit salad, and a lot more I'm sure no one really cares to hear about unless they are hungry. They gave some great gifts. One of the co-workers' mother hand-sewed a quilt and I can't believe how perfect it is for him. I think he will love rolling around on this blanket.

Andrew's students also pitched in and gave the gift of diapers...a gift I"m starting to think is better than any other! So now we have quite a little start-up supply of diapers for his stinky butt. =)

Andrew's brother, Justin came in last week and has been staying with us, which has been great! He is so much fun. He likely has to leave in the beginning of January to go back to Alaska and fish so we're hoping the baby decides to arrive before then. We've debated pogo sticks, trampolines and long jogs in the park. I threw the pogo stick idea out to Dr. Arronte and she said of course!...as long as I don't fall off haha. The eject button (i.e my bellybutton) has worked no wonders so here we sit, waiting on this perfect little creature to decide when he will grace us with his presence. I feel like he might be part unicorn.

There are only saggy bottom jeans at this point
