39 weeks
well.........i am 39 weeks this week and ready to go :)
we had a really nice weekend - beyond nearly being wiped off the face of the earth by a tornado....we believe we had one touch down about a mile from our house - it took some huge trees out....we lost power for about 4 hours so we went over to Troy's parents and hung out with them until about 11pm and then came home.
On saturday we went to some garage sales and went for a walk hoping to get jacob going.....not too much result from that other than swollen feet....saturday pm our neighbors daughter got married and we ran into town to see Jeff and Betty's little girl.....boy is she cute. We also stopped at Sonic for their 99 cent shake! it was the first time at Sonic since they opened so that was a yummy treat.
went to church on sunday - ran some errands and then hung out at the neighbors pool for about 3 hours - OH MY GOODNESS!!! i nearly forgot i was pregnant - it was the best feeling in the world. We at supper with them and then came home and vegged for a bit on the couch.....falling asleep of course....i didn't sleep well last pm - jacob was moving around like a crazy man and he is pretty far down there so he was hitting every nerve and there was quite a bit of pressure...prayerfully at our dr. apt today i will have dilated some....i will let you know!

In some ways I am jealous that everyone else is having their baby's now and I have 3 more months, but in other ways, I am sure there is more for me to experience.
Such as the swollen ankles and feet, haven't had any issues with that yet.
Hope things happen for you soon.
Hi girl!!
I can't believe you are so close. Hang in there. Just remember these last few days as a family of two. And also remember to take every moment in-when Jacob does arrive. There is no other feeling like it in the world. Motherhood is amazing. We are praying for you and can't wait to hear the good news!
Love Jen, Joe, and Jackson
Love you Sherry! Can't wait to hear what the dr. says:)
Yeah, so what did the doctor say? Funny thing....my sister in law Michelle is 38 weeks this week. As of today, she was 95% effaced and dialated to 5!!!! Yet no contractions and no labor. Isn't that amazing. Her nurse pract said she had no idea what was holding that baby in there :) So, the race is on to see if Lily or Jacob will be here first!!!
Hang in there!!!! We love you guys and are so excited for you!!!
Can't wait to hear the good news - hopefully soon! Maybe if your mom gets there and Jacob is still staying put you can make some freezer meals to pull out when she's gone. It's always nice to have something easy to just throw in the oven.
Hope your delivery and recovery go well.
