Good News Everyone!

My title should be spoken like DR. Farnswoth from Futurama. Don't know him? Well then you are missing out!

Today I had my end of week 39 appointment! And amazingly everything was awesome. My bloodpressure was something like 122/70 or 80 something! I think that's the lowest yet. My midwife thinks its because I am no longer working. She said in Europe pregnant woman don't work at the end of their pregnancies, and get paid for it! I think Pizza Ranch could take a lesson from the Europeans!

My urine had no protein in it today also and my 2nd 24 hour urine test had 180 something, compared to last time of 280 something!

She didn't check my cervix at all so I don't know how that's doing. But she seemed really optimistic, and it doesn't sound like an induction is going to happen anymore. She told me not to be concerned if I go past my due date. I have another appointment scheduled next Thursday anyway. But since everything is looking good, I think were going to let nature take its course.
(Baby, cover your eyes at that, and hurry up! A lot of people are anxious to meet you!)

That doesn't mean I'm not trying to get this baby out. I swang again tonight, took a mini walk, and a bath. Oh and for lunch I ordered cajun chicken...but it wasn't spicy!

I don't think I've mentioned that this past monday Chayse went back to headstart pre-school! He loves it and is really glad that his best bud Sidney is in his class. Scott said his teacher seems nice also.

I guess at school they did a BMI on the kids. Apparently Chayse is boderline overwieght. EXCUSE ME? Chayse has no fat on him anywhere! He is a skinny boy. He does have a big head though. ;). But seriously there is no belly, no rolls, not anything fat about him. I do believe he is big for his age but don't they take height as one of the factors?

Scott and I shop while the kids are at school. Today we had the appoinment and then took grandma Janie and a friend from work out to lunch. Thursdays are early release days in Iowa City, so we had little time to shop. Which is good for our budget! Anyway the Dollar Tree is a must hit. I bought each kid a Dawn of the Dinosaurs watch. I don't think either of them shut up the whole car ride home about the watches. I love the cheap thrills in life. :)

I also got my very own cheap thrill, a Coupon organizer! I feel so old lady but I wanted one because I keep getting coupons in the mail for baby stuff or to clothing stores. So this way I'll know where they are at. Not sure though if Scott is thrilled by it. I'm a sucker for sales and clearance. I can then justify buying about anything if I can get a good deal on it! :).

Well then soon to be momma needs to head to bed and get as much sleep as possible before baby is here!
