1 Week To Go

Can you believe it? We are down to the final days before welcoming our little boy into the world. We met with our pediatrician, Dr. Karp, yesterday and oh what a wonderful lady she is. We are pretty much ready for the baby, but if you would have asked us yesterday if that was the case, I am not sure what we would say. After meeting the pediatrician, Amy began having consistent contractions. She has been having contractions (Braxton Hicks) for over a month, but they have never been consistent. Yesterday she started having contractions 5-10 minutes apart. We went for a walk and they slowed down and we were able to rest for the evening. Today's contractions have been 15-20 minutes apart, with some painful ones. The pictures below are from yesterday. We will be taking daily pictures and sharing those on the blog. We are not sure how many more days that may be...we have a doctor's appointment on Friday so that may tell us a lot, IF we make it to that appointment. Kevin is still shooting for Friday, but Amy is saying Sunday night at the earliest...Mother knows best???

Hang in there, these last few days/weeks are always the worst and the best because of the anticipation. Amy, you look wonderful and I am praying for an easy delivery for you!

Hi...We just read the news on Meg's blog and are SO excited for you. We're praying that the labor is going (has gone?) as smoothly as possible, and that your baby boy comes healthy and strong into this world. Can't wait to see pictures.
