"Baby Out"
I found this too adorable not to share.
Last night, we had our normal bedtime routine, we say our prayers and as Maddy say's "Mommy Rock You" (which means I rock her, not Daddy). We've been trying to get her used to the idea that the baby will be coming home and living with us. So, I'll ask her questions, like "do you want the baby to come sleep in our house, etc....". She always answers "yes". Last night, as I was rocking her and asking her the usual questions, she reached down with her little arms and wrapped them around my belly and said "Baby Out".
I couldn't have said it better myself! And I hadn't realized that she understood that the baby would, at some point, be out of my belly. I underestimated her!
As far as status on getting baby out....nothing really happening. I've been having contractions, off and on since yesterday. (or they could be Braxton Hicks for all I know) I have a Dr's appt on Thursday and will hopefully have something to report.! I got a dose of reality at my last appointment, somewhere along the line I heard the Dr's say, we might not let you go full term and heard mention of 39 weeks. So, I twisted it around so that I was getting induced on Aug 11th for an Aug 12th delivery. Well, I was informed last week that if I didn't go on my own, they would induce me sometime before I'm 40 weeks. No date specification, just "sometime" before I'm 40 weeks. Let's just say, it was an ugly couple of days. Just ask my poor husband! I'm better now and have fully accepted the fact that the baby won't be here until Aug 18th.
I'll post recent pics soon!

I love it. Baby out. Out of the mouths of babes. It's a sign!!! I don't believe in those Braxton Hicks things. How can there be such a thing as fake contractions? When they hurt, they hurt, that crap's not fake!!! Baby out. So cute!!!!
