Wow I suck!!

I can't believe that I have ignored this for so long!! I'm so sorry about that. Life got hectic and I just never thought about coming here and posting.

I don't even know where to start to catch this up. I am now almost 37 weeks pregnant and I'm miserable most of the time. LOL It's funny though because as much as I want to meet my little boy, I don't want this experience to end. I know that this will be my last pregnancy so it's very bitter sweet.

I had preterm labor a couple of weeks ago. They ended up giving me to shots to stop it. Since then I have still had contractions but not regularly and not nearly as often. Last Saturday I was getting really strong ones that were irregular but they only lasted for a few hours. Hopefully it means I'm progressing though. I would like to be 3 or 4cm dialated when I go into labor (I'm asking alot, I know) and as of my appointment last week I was dialated to 1cm.

I had my baby shower on May 31st. It was amazing!! I had such a great time and I think everyone else did too. I got alot of wonderful gifts too so you know thats always nice. HAHA A special thanks to Crystal, Stephanie, Charlotte and Jaimie for all the work they did putting that together!!

Now it's just the waiting game for Gage to show up. He's still VERY active. I don't think he has much room left in there. The doc told me at my last appointment that if I go into labor they will not stop it. I'm secretly hoping for hin to make his appearance this upcoming Sunday, June 21st. Not only is it fathers day but it's the birthday of a great family friend that just passed away yesterday. He wanted so bad for me to have Gage on his birthday. I'm obviously not going to do anything to "make" myself go into labor but it would be cool if it happened since I'm full term now anyways.

I'm sure I missed alot but I have to get back to the kids. I will try to update this more often and try to get some pics up too when I have the chance.
