He is FINALLY Here

Well, after much anticipation our new baby has arrived. It is a boy, contrary to what most people thought it was going to be. His name is Jacob Matthew and he is just adorable. We feel so lucky to have a new healthy little boy to join our family. Big brother Adam is adjusting well. In fact he is doing better than I expected. I will post more later in regards to his arrival, but I wanted to get some pictures on here.

Today has come and gone

So today was my official due date. Apparently we forgot to tell the baby this, because he or she is still nice and cozy in my stomach. I had a doctor's appointment today and she checked me. No real progress. She had originally said that they would induce me on Monday Feb. 16th but now because of my lack of progress, she is saying that she will wait until Wednesday Feb. 18th to induce. I go back on Monday and will be checked again. There is a possibility that she could induce me that day, only if I have started to dilate then. That could mean that I have a whole week left! Unbelievable. So, back to work for me tomorrow.

Today was a nice day off. I have just been so tired lately so this afternoon when Adam took a nap, so did I. In fact, I took about a 2 1/2 hour nap. It was wonderful. I am thinking that naps will be limited very soon, so we better take advantage of it while we can.

It's gotta happen soon

So, now I am officially on the days countdown. I had an appointment on Thursday. It was uneventful. Just a weight and measurement check. I lost 2 pounds since the week before but my measurement was up. After the appointment, I started talking to Kelly about everything. Then I realized that I remember very little about what I am supposed to do when things start. With Adam, Jeff and I had went to classes and I felt prepared. Well, that was 3 years ago. When should I call the doctor? When do I go to the hospital? Do I call the doctors office or just go to the hospital? So, I had to call my midwife and ask all of the questions that I had forgotten. I go back to the doctor's on Wednesday. So we will see what happens then. Wednesday is my official due date. Jeff and I still do not have names settled. We are so indecisive.

On another note, things have been pretty uneventful. Jeff and I went to a movie last night thinking that it might be one of the last times for awhile. We went and saw "He Just Not That Into You." It was cute. I would recommend it.

Not much else to post. Next time I post, I could be the mother of 2 instead of 1. Scary!!
