Guess What??

Well, last night was like one big slumber party at our house. Joe and I were both SO excited thinking today would be the day. We were so gitty and took a LONG time to fall asleep. This morning, he didn't even put on a suit -- he was sure this would be it. He wore his favorite courdoroys and polo, we took one final picture and off to the 8:30 am appointment we went!!!

We got to the doctor's office and he was called away to L&D and was delayed. We finally got back to see him around 10:45 and when we did he told us that a few couples that came in before us informed him there was a nice woman in the waiting room with triplets and she didn't want to go home today...hahaha -- I think he is catching onto my MO.

So, he told me that high blood pressure CAN be a sign of preclamsia, but in my case -- it wasn't. All tests came back normal. Then, he said, well -- let's check the cervix because that is really the bottom line. So, we crossed our fingers and the verdict....I am dilated to about 2-3cm.!!! Guess what that means? TODAY IS THE DAY!!!! Yippee -- we were both sooooo excited.

He called the NICU and labor and delivery and all the other places that need to be "in place" for the delivery and we will go back in at 4pm to get ready for a 7pm delivery. He said we should go home, get a bite to eat and enjoy our last day.

Joe took me to Cuisine d'art for a blueberry muffin -- I have been wanting that for week! And we called our families to let them know and now we are thinking maybe a movie? or maybe a walk in the park (haha) and in a few short hours, we will be happy parents ready to enjoy many sleepless nights!!!!!

Stay tuned and thanks for all the prayers!
