37 Weeks...He's still in there!

Just another updated. Tyler is still in the womb despite efforts to 'sing' him out on Sunday night. I have progressed a tiny bit and he is definitely in position....but he's still in there. I was a little disappointed at my Midwife visit yesterday. I don't think it was so much that I'm not progressing as much as I hoped, but that I found out that my midwife might not be there to deliver Tyler. Now, you have to know that this happens to me EVERY TIME! With Caleb I delivered in a hospital where you never know who you are going to get to deliver your baby. Well, my midwife started me off, but she's not the one who delivered him. Fast forward to Julia, I had the same midwife as I did with Caleb, but I was to deliver at a birthing center. So, here I am thinking...wow, private practice, I get who I go to for delivery. WRONG! My midwife has double knee replacement surgery and isn't there for my delivery.....which is ok because I met Jean and she delivered Julia. So, Jean is my midwife now and has spent this year really getting into shape and is training for a triathlon. Way cool! So at my last appointment I noticed that she was a little stiff and she said that her bike had thrown her and she hurt her shoulder. Betty, whom I saw yesterday, tells me that she is still very much in pain and that she is supposed to see a dr today about it. Oh I hope that she gets better soon!
Just ranting now, but we're really doing ok. I'm walking like a mad woman and I'm trying to get my work done before this baby gets here. The unpredictablilty of it all, I guess, just drives me nuts!

Baby Update

I had my 36 week appointment today and it just seems like time has just flown by! This is when the appointments start to get fun....you never know if you will make your next one!!! So, I asked my midwife to check me and I am progressing! I won't put the details up for everyone to see, but HERE WE GO! Tyler might be here sooner rather than later. So, please keep us in your prayers. We WILL make it to the ultra fun worship jam this weekend...I can't wait to sing with all of you! It will be so fun! I can't imagine something pleasing the Father more than the Body getting together to fellowship and worship Him! What a blessing!!!!!

See ya there!

It's over.

Well, we have a new president elect. I, for one, am glad that the election is over. It may not have turned out how a lot of us wanted it to, but there is not much we can do about it now. I am so glad that the debates and commentary will be dying down. I'm really tired of being bombarded with it. I know there are other states that have been even more bombarded with it...like the folks in Ohio, that are even more sick of it all. I do have to say this was the most exciting election I have ever experienced. I think the media played a huge part in all of it, good or bad. I can remember telling James how biased the news reports were. It's crazy...
Anyway, I figured most people would be blogging about the election today and thought I would throw one out there.

Now, to focus on getting this baby born....4-6 more weeks!
