Not yet...

Still here....no baby Lucas yet. I know he's not due til Saturday, but I have to say, this week has been the most frustrating of them all!
I appreciate the concern and excitement you all have and apologize for not answering phone calls, text messages and/or emails, it's just really hard for me right now and to be honest, I'm tired of telling everyone the same thing, no, no baby yet. So please bare with me, I love you all and will definitely let you know one way or another when he finally does decide to come out, I promise...the whole freaking world will know!!! Lol!!
Love you all!
Me

Hi everyone...just wanted to let you know that I'm not sure how much longer I will be doing this blog. As you already know, I'm not very good at updating it. The reason is mainly because it's just too frustrating! I'm ususally pretty good with this kind of stuff, but as you can tell by my last batch of belly pix, I'm having trouble posting pix. I may just resort to myspace or facebook, but not sure yet.

Also, I wanted to let you know that I think I lost my plug...so it could be any day now! And unfortunately sometimes it can be weeks after that happens, but I'm thinking positive! My tummy has also been one giant BH contraction (hard as a rock) since I woke up yesterday at 3:15am, so hoping that means somethihng too. I did wake up last night, twice with contractions, but after a couple they seemed to go away....but again, it's a step closer. We're really hoping he will come out by this weekend! And prepare yourself for when you hear the weight! I know I was only 6lbs 11 oz but Todd was 8lbs 5 1/2 oz and I'm thinking this boy weighs closer to what his daddy did...I'm huge, still gaining weight and hungry most of the time again now...yikes!

Well most of you will here from us (or mom & dad) via phone or text so keep your phones near! Hope to talk to you soon! Lol!

Be careful what you wish for...

I had a doctor's appointment yesterday and doc said all is well. Lucas is prob about 4.5-5 lbs now, which is right on target. However, the doc is a little worried he may get too big for me. So, they will keep an eye on things and do an ultrasound in a few weeks and take measurements to see how big he is. If he's on his way to 8 pounds or more they may induce me a few weeks early! Yikes! Of course they want to keep him in there as long as possible so that everything is functioning properly, but they are usually ok anytime after 37 weeks.

All this because I asked a question! Exciting, but yet scary. He could be here sooner than we thought! Not sure if it's all really real yet....but it will be soon enough!

Hope to see you all tomorrow!!! So excited!!! :)

Fashion Friday

So I thought I'd do something a little different today. A week or so ago Stefanie's mom (Stef is my brother's fiance) requested some pix of me and belly...not just my belly. So...here are some pix of me in a couple different outfits.

Our 3D/4D Experience

OMG!!! Saturday was the best day yet! Todd and I went for the 3D/4D ultrasound. We went back and forth on whether or not we should do it, but in the end we are sure glad that we did! It was amazing! I think we both cried!

Todd was pretty against it in the first place, saying that the 3D pix are freaky and they look like aliens, but after showing him other 3D pix and talking about it alot he finally agreed to do it. Now he is thanking me for convincing him because he was so moved by the whole experience. I think Lucas is going to be a little ham (and not because of the chubby cheeks :)) because he kept sticking his tongue out and trying to eat his toes! It was so cute! Poor thing kept kicking himself in the eye cuz I guess his coordination skills take after his mama. Lol!

I'm now at 30 weeks and 2 days and I'm sure these last few weeks are gonna go by as slow as molasses, so I thought getting this ultrasound would "hold us over" and give us something to look forward to....but I think now we are more excited than ever to meet him (I'm also relieved that I was able to get a clearer picture of him and make sure everything was accounted for, I kept having nightmares) :) !!!

We have 101 pictures of him on a cd and a DVD of the entire session. I wonder if I'll go home tonight and catch Todd watching the video again!?!?! Lol!
