LONGEST MONTH OF MY LIFE!!!!

37 Weeks On tuesday I had another ultra sounds. They wanted to see all of the measurements of our baby again. From what we could tell he is positioned right. Meaning that his head is down. She had the hardest time getting pictures because he was just wiggling like crazy... probably because she was pushing so hard, it hurt!! Man that was the longest ultra sound ever, I had to lay down on my back for at least 1 and half hours while she took all the measurements. My back was killing me!!! According to the ultra sound we have a healthy boy, who weighs around 5 lbs 8 oz. (I don't know how accurate these things are), and my due date might be off by a couple days. So it might be on like the 18th instead, but we are going to keep saying the 16th until I hear from my doctor for sure! I had another doctors appointment yesterday. There is not too much to report from that doctors appointment, it was a fast appointment...in and out!! She too had a hard time staying on the heart beat because he just was wiggling all of the place!! Chris says that he just likes to tease them!! :) All is well, Baby is doing good and right on track!!

June 1st: We went bowling. Probably not the best thing to do when you are as pregnant as I was, but it was a lot of fun and I think I had one of my best bowling series bowling 135!!! Chris definitely had a PR of 212!! But I am definitely not going to go bowling again until after the baby comes because I was super sore that night and the next couple of days after! Totally worth it! :)

38 weeks Dr. says he looks like average weight 6-7 pounds!

June 8th: Last few days that we will ever have the house to ourselves! We went and checked out the hospital that we will be delivering at and then we went to the Amish country! This was fun, mainly just got food.....which is SO Yummy, especially when pregnant! Ben and Christine came with us. Their fried pies are to die for!

June 10th: MY MOM ARRIVED! She will be staying until July 2nd which is when my dad will get here! They both will stay until July 5th.  She flew in late and we picked her up around 12:30, didn't get home until 1:30! We were all so tired! 

39 Weeks- He is huge, I feel like I am carrying a watermelon!! It is time for him to come! 

 I am still feeling good. I haven't had any contractions or anything. Last week when we saw the doctor he said that our baby is doing great and that he looks like he is right on track.

GUESSING GAME: I have decided that I don't like the guessing game of when he is going to come! I just want to know!!! So with this guessing game, chris and I have put in our guesses of what day we think he will come, his weight, and height. We would love to see everyone else's guess as well to see who will be closest. His due date is on June 16th.  So nobody takes Chris's and mine: Chris guessed- June 21, weight of 7 lb.. 7 oz., height of 21 in. I guessed- June 19, weight of 7 lb. 14 oz. and height of 21 in.

Since he could come any day, we are finally ready for him to come. we have the car seat and stroller, crib, baby's room is done, tons of baby clothes, and my bag is packed!! ....well I think we are ready anyhow. :) REady or not, but mostly just READY!

June 14th: My mom, me, Christine, Jenny, and Lindsay all went and got pedicures. Afterwards we went to the Strawberry Festival. 

June 20th:4 days overdue, Soooo ready for him to come out!!! I keep saying today is the day, but Nothing!!! When is he going to come!!!????? We are trying so hard to be patient. My sisters keep calling me giving me their concerns and advice. They are all afraid that I will be like them and have to be induced...bummer. I have been talking to my sisters a lot these past couple of weeks. I get the membranes stripped today, so hopefully that will help things along. My mom took us out to eat last night which was super nice of her and afterwards we all went to the Claytons to play clue, which was a lot of fun and a good distraction. They invited us over again the next night...I think they are hoping I will go into labor while there haha.  If nothing happens we will go in to get induced on Sunday at 8pm. I really don't want to do that so my mom and I have been going on like 2 hour walks to try and get him to come!!!
