25 days to go till due date

Sorry we haven't put any updates on lately. We have been quite busy and as of Saturday are 36 weeks and 3 days, which gives us 25 days until the due date. We have completed all 3 prepared child birth classes and breast feeding class, so we feel educated in what to expect. Alex turned downward two weeks ago so we know he is headed in the right direction. At the doctor's on Friday he said that they will treat Lisa as though she is full-term so if Alex is ready to come and starts the process they won't do anything to stop it. On the one hand, Lisa is ready for Alex to come and to be done being pregnant, but still feels like there is lots for her to do at work before that happens. So, she is feeling conflicted. For the most part she is still feeling good, though she is having some discomfort as her body continues to prepare for the big day and Alex continues to get bigger. We are now at the weekly doctor appt. point so we will see the doctor again on Thursday and get the first exam to see if things are progressing. We will definitely let everyone know as soon as Lisa starts dilating. We want to thank everyone that came to the shower for their generosity and support. Also, thank you for joining us in celebrating!!!!!

  2. I can't believe the time is almost here! It's been a long and "excellent baby adventure", and we're about to see the light at the end of the tunnel, or the baby at the end of the canal. Keep up the good work, all three of you, and remember that we love you so so much. I will be waiting for "the" phone call. Love and kisses, and I wish you all enough.
