She's still not here...

Well, she's not here yet, but I had an Fetal Non-Stress Test this afternoon and things are going well. I'm having mild contractions all the time, and baby is moving around normally with a normal heart beat. The nurse thought she'd be here in the next day or two...


I had a good week; no leg/back spasms = happy Sarah! New Years Eve we had dinner with Erin, Daniel, and Jon and Lauren Soini. (I had spicy, spicy green curry to try and smoke her out, but it only made her mad and kick me all evening)! On New Years Day we went to see The Curious Case of Benjamin Button with Andrew, Stephanie, Abby and Lisa. And then I had coffee with Marta and Ona. On Friday, Dan got off early and we went to happy hour at Maggiano's and then walked around the mall for two hours to try and walk baby out.

Today we just slept in and chilled at home until my appointment this afternoon. Then afterward we went to Wibbley's so Dan could get a hamburger from one of his favorite burger joints. As of last Friday, I'm not supposed to have any salt, but the burger smelt sooooooooooo good, and the "one bite" was just too good to pass up, so I ended up ordering one of my own!!! (Don't tell my doctor :)

All in all a good week. Dan and I have run out of things to do in prep for baby, so we're starting to get a little antsy, but we're also trying to enjoy our last days as two.

Update on Dan: no real news. We don't expect to hear back from his tests until Monday at the earliest. He hasn't had another "attack" but he has had the pain and discomfort a couple times since. Please pray for continued heath/healing for him.

I hope you are hanging in there! I can't believe you are over 9mo. prego...you look amazing! My hubby was just in the room and I asked him if he thought you were prego and he couldn't believe you were overdue!
You totally deserve that hamburger-you must have eaten so well your whole pregnancy! Great job!
I hope your little love comes soon!

Oh the waiting is the hardest part! Praying for all of you. We are anxious to meet little girl.

Oh and my parents recommend a very bumpy car ride as a way to get things going! :)

Hang in there - give me a call if you get real bored and want to do something!
