Last days as a family of four

Today we spent our last weekend as a family of four. We went swimming this morning and the park this evening. The house is all clean and I got the fall decorations put up this week...even though we are still enjoying 90 degree temperatures. I'm so thankful the hurricanes did not come our way.


Friday I had my lost Dr appointment as well as pre- op preparations. We spent 3 hours having a Dr appointment, blood and lab work and going over procedures regarding my c-section on Tuesday. Thankfully a lady from church watched the boys for us so that made it much easier. I have felt much better today then some days this week. The baby has run out of room and seems to push in the same couple spots consistently- making them very sore. The Dr did say the baby's head was really low, I have began to thin out but not dialated...so I think he will wait until Tuesday 7:30 AM. I'm ready but can't believe it is coming so soon. I'm really not looking forward to all the pain that follows. The boys are excited..especially Caleb. My mom and brother come on Monday to help out for a week. I ended up gaining 33 lbs..which is what I gained with Titus so I figure they will be about the same size (7lb 4oz). I'm so curious what this one's personality will be like and what he will look like. Please pray for us Tuesday and in the months following...we have a lot going on! Mike will try to post pics Tuesday afternoon.
