Update

Unfortunately this little one has decided to be quite stubborn. 

I had another doctor appointment today..... still not much progress.    Unless she decides to arrive on her own,  Friday is going to be the day.   I will be admitted to the hospital Friday night with the induction spanning between Friday night and Saturday morning...........  assuming this is what happens,  the very earliest she will be born is sometime on Saturday with the possibility of her arriving on Sunday.

Obviously we were hoping she'd make her grand entrance into this world by now, but she just must not be quite ready.......

We will continue to wait and provide updates when we have them.

Thanks for all the well wishes and thoughts!   We are extremely excited to introduce our new addition to each and everyone of you!!!! :-)

Mom's Help......

My Mom came over last night and helped me put up all my snowmen/Christmas decorations and Christmas tree.

I know it's still early, but it's something I normally do on Black Friday.   There's still a chance we will be at the hospital or just home from the hospital and it's just one of those things that nice to have done.

Pictures to come......
I even got yelled at......I put my snowmen on the top of the cabinets in the kitchen and wanted to help so I climbed up on the counter..... I was promptly told to get my butt down and let her do it!  Ha!

Thanks Mom for helping! 

Gopher Football 2010

Here's a roundup of pictures from the Gopher games this year.......  the highlight of the days were definitely tailgaiting since we know the Gophers didn't do so hot this year.

Thanks to everyone that came with us this year! It's been another fun and memorable year.

Ready, Set........ Wait!

Alright, so the nursery is ready,  the bassinet is in our room,  car seat is in the car, the bag is at least partially packed (a few odds and ends that are on a list to get thrown in the bag before we leave).

We are anxiously awaiting all the events to progress! Weekly Doctor appointment showed no progress........

I now have a pinched nerve in my back which has turned out to be very painful and uncomfortable.  I am hopeful that once the little one is born, these pains will go away quite quickly. 

Until then......... we wait!

Gopher Badger Football Weekend 2010

This is slightly out of order, but Andy, Laura and I went to Madison October 8-10 for the Gopher/Badger Football weekend.   We started the tradition of going to the game every year when Laura was in college.

Laura found some awesome tickets this year on Ebay.  We were on the upper deck, but pretty much on the 50 yard line.  Couldn't have asked for much better.    Laura's friend Julia joined us at the game as well.

It was a little bit more low key than we were used to..... maybe because I am pregnant,  or maybe because we are getting older, but we still had a lot of fun.   (Too bad the Gophers couldn't find a way to win ;-) )

 This one didn't turn out very well, but I still wanted to include it.

Thanks Laura for another fun and memorable weekend!
