Logan is 35 months old today. And unless our induction goes very slowly tomorrow (we're so hoping it goes quickly), then today was our last day as a family of three. Kind of a strange feeling, even though we were due on the 4th and of course knew this was coming. Logan has been kissing and hugging baby brother for the past few months (Mommy's tummy); we tried to get some pics of this tonight, but of course it's even cuter when it's more spontaneous.
Since I'm past my due date, my doctor had me go in today for a non-stress test. The nurse hooked me up to monitors to monitor the baby's heartbeat/activity and any contractions. Everything was fine; in fact, baby was too active and they kept losing contact, so what should have taken 20 minutes took about four times as long. I was having contractions every 8-10 minutes while I laid there, but once I walked back to my office, they weren't so regular. My furniture was moved to a window office this morning (no promotion, just an empty office), so I spent the rest of the day unpacking and wrapping up what I could get done. I took bagels for my coworkers this morning and I know they appreciated it, although it will not really make up for my work they'll have to pick up over the next two months.
I left work early to pick up Logan from Mother's Day Out. We stopped at Sonic for drinks and came home. Justin came home a little while later and we took Logan to see a movie, "Madasc*r -- Escape 2 Africa." It wasn't a stellar movie by any means, but he sat through it and seemed to enjoy it. We wanted to do a special activity with just the three of us since we had the chance.
We're supposed to report tomorrow morning (Saturday, Nov. 8) at 8:00 am for the induction. But, if things happen on their own before that, we'll be happy. Please pray for all to go well and for me to accept whatever happens, even if we end up with a C-section.
