No progress

We had our weekly doctor's appointment today. No progress yet. I still don't think I'm having any contractions yet, not even Braxton Hicks. I have noticed that he is dropping though, you can see it in my belly and how he's sitting now. I also have noticed a lot more pain and pressure down toward my bladder and more frequent trips to the bathroom...YAY! hehe Dr. Jarem will do another exam next Thursday and maybe we'll have some news then. We're 37 weeks and 2 days today. Baby Boy was SO active this morning. He was moving like crazy at the doctor's office. The nurse even had a hard time getting his heart rate cause he kept switching positions on her. Too funny...

We're still working on his name. Unfortunately our list of names is getting longer not shorter. This is going to be a tough decision.

We started looking more seriously at child care options for when I go back to work (tear) after his birth. We're finding a couple places that we think might be good possibilities. One of the front runners is Kindercare where our friends Karen and Uriel take their son Rafael. It would be awesome having a couple more pairs of eyes to check on him when they're there. It's great cause they also live in our neighborhood. It's been such a blessing having them enter our lives at the perfect time. They give great advice on what they've done with Raf and helping us on our decisions. We're going to their house tonight for dinner. Fun times!

Guess that's all for now. We'll give more updates as they come. We should be completely ready for baby by this weekend. We started packing our hospital stuff and have an appointment to get the car seat installed by the Fire Department this weekend. After that, it's game on! We're ready for you Baby Boy. Mommy and Daddy can't wait for your arrival!!! (Neither can Auntie Kacia, she emailed and told me so yesterday. hehe) We all love you so much!

if you can find an in home daycare that you trust the woman, and think she is clean and would love him, i would rather do that. only cuz i have worked in MANY daycares, and you just never know who will be coming in to hold your baby:( dont mean to give you any bad feelings about it, but i have a lady and i know she loves libby, and is very flexible with our schedules, you need someone like her! i bet if you check around at your church you could find a wonderful woman??!! or maybe you feel comfortable at the daycare, but blek::: after working at so many i would never take libby there until she was older. how much time are you taking off work?? well, i bet if you blogged about his name, you could get a vote!! your belly is WAY to stinkin cute. i love it.
