OMG!
so...it's 4:06 in the morning, and I'm wide awake (nothing unusual about that) thinking about where I'll be in 24 hours! I am so excited to finally meet Steven!! His daddy is sound asleep right now, but I am like the Disney World commercial with the two little kids who are awake the night before their trip to Disney. "I'm too excited to sleep!!" I know I need my sleep right now, but I just can't seem to relax enough to fall asleep. Too exciting--My life is about to change forever!

Tick Tock
Well...Steven is officially on his way! Due to some excessive swelling (think bag lady feet), an ungodly amount of weight gained (it's gonna be a challenge to take off, but I'm up for it), and a Dr. who goes on vacation September 1st, I am going into the hospital to be induced this week. I go in on Monday evening for some cervidil to help ripen (that's a gross word in this context, isn't it?) my cervix which seems to be "unfavorable" right now--I haven't progressed past being 70% effaced in 3 weeks. On Tuesday morning, they will start the Petocin if I haven't gone into labor on my own. If the Petocin doesn't work, the Dr. warned me that a c-section might be in my future. I really don't want one, but if that is the safest way for me to bring my baby into this world, I will do what is best for him! I can't wait to meet him, although I am a little anxious about this whole process...Labor and Delivery terrify me, to be honest, but I think the joy of meeting my son will outweigh any apprehension I might have going in.
Can't wait to meet him!

Baby Shower Fun
Miss Billie, Robyn, Megan, Kate, and Aims threw me a fabulous baby shower yesterday! I can't believe how many wonderful friends I have. It was so great to see everyone! We played "guess the candy bar" by sniffing what looked like dirty diapers--pure disgusting, but so much fun!
