Nope...

I had a doctor's appointment yesterday, and there was absolutely no change from last week. Bummer. I am now 4 days overdue. Not much else to say. They won't induce until I'm at least 10 days overdue, so I guess we wait. My OB told me to walk for a couple hours yesterday - so I did. And another hour today, with an upcoming hour after I'm done this blog entry. My feet are sore. I have contractions when I walk, but they stop when I'm done walking.

Gord and I were talking tonight about general stuff, when Ben walked up and said, "Daddy, it's complicated!" We stopped talking (obviously, as a 4 syllable word was just spoken by our son!) and just looked at each other with puzzled expressions. I asked, "Where on earth did he get that from?", and then answered my own question. He has this book called "What's inside?" and it talks about what's inside Mommy's tummy when she's having a baby. But it starts out asking "what's inside the suitcase?...what's inside the present?..." and in the middle, it asks "what's inside the television?". They then show a picture of the inside of a TV, with all the wires and switches and stuff. The text says "oh, it's complicated!" So THAT is where he got it from. But still, we were stunned that he just came out with it for no apparent reason. What a kid!

Here are a couple of pictures, for your perusal...

Well, maybe all of you will have your babies within a few days of each other - or - maybe all on the same day, Lisa, Jodi's bridesmaid, hasn't had hers yet either....

Wouldn't that be something.....hahaha

Can you get that Mr. Men shirt in a size 17/35? If so, I'm gonna get a shirt, quit my job, and walk around town all day, scoring chicks.

Darnit, I was hoping you would've had that baby by now! Have you dilated at all yet? What I did with Matthew was take evening primrose oil 2 weeks before my due date and had him a week before he was due. It thins out the cervix and works in combination with the Braxton Hicks to help dilate you and get things moving. Give it a try. Keeping my fingers crossed the baby comes soon!
