Due Date Today

Today is the due date, but still no baby. Doctor's appt. didn't give much more info. Lisa hasn't made any more progress towards labor. Looks like Alex is going to be smaller than originally thought last week; Dr. says "I think he is smaller than I thought", so we'll see when he makes his grand appearance. We have been scheduled for induction next Tuesday, August 25th at 5am, if he doesn't come on his own before that. So, we have a new date to look forward to. We will see the doctor again on Monday to get hooked up to the monitor to make sure that Alex is ok before the induction. No reason to believe that he won't be ok, just want to make sure due to it being past the due date. We will let everyone know as soon as we know more whether that is labor or next Monday after the doctor's appt. Lisa is still feeling ok, though uncomfortable and is still working. She just feels like she wants to keep busy and save her time off to spend with Alex.

  2. Well, Alex is showing us all who is the boss. He will come at his own sweet time. Since I am writing this on Friday night, over 12 hours since Alex was born, we are so blessed to have such a beautiful baby boy. All of his body parts and so perfectly shaped for all he had to go through. Lisa had a pretty hard time with that back labor, but,all in all, everything progress in a very timely manner. Welcome, my precious Alex, and God bless your mommy and daddy. Grammie, Grampie, Uncle Ray, Joe, Kia, and Kelsey, and everyone else are so so glad you are here at last. Love and kisses to all.
