She loves her baby.

5 things:

1. Yesterday Josh and I took the...scenic route to the hospital I hope to deliver the baby at. Scenic meaning over an hour past our exit and a long meandering road back. Thank the Lord this was a trial run and I wasn't in labour or I would have had him in the van for sure. I completely missed my ultrasound (they wanted to check my fluid levels), but the kind midwife on shift squeezed me in for a quick visit and then we got to tour the birthing center afterwards. It's nice. Very much like St. Mary's only a bit smaller. I was happy to see big windows. My camera is coming with me this time.

2. Baby's check-up was good. He's head down again which is a huge relief. I'm doing all I can now to get him to roll over into an anterior position. Only 6 weeks to go, yay! This is the first pregnancy that I've been anxious to have over with.

3. The kids are loving it here. Now that spring has finally arrived, Joshy and Em are outdoors most of the time. Poor Addie has to watch from the sidelines since she has to wait for me to get the inside things done before I can take her out. She feels the deprivation most bitterly, I assure you.

4. Tomorrow is Josh's 30th birthday. Thirtieth. Wow. Where have the last 14 years gone?

5. There is a pile of laundry waiting for me to fold it. I guess I'd better scoot.
