A boring update, but an update

So today I officially have 1 week until I get to meet my baby girl! I am sooooooooo excited and scared, ready more then you can know, but not feeling ready at all! I keep telling Austin everyday to tell her it is time to come out! He puts his little head on my belly and gives his sister a talking too. It is really cute.
At my appointment last week, I was 3cm dilated and 80% effaced. I had had contraction for 4 hours the night before, but alas....they went away. Dang. So really, I am hoping she comes sooner, like right now, but I guess if I HAVE to I will wait.
I cant wait to sleep on my back again, or my stomach, I cant wait to walk again, and bend over. I miss my feet, and wonder what they are looking like these days. My left rib feels broken, and sleep is something I will have to live without for the next little while, since I am not getting any now! If you ask me, that is a total design flaw! Shouldn't we be getting the best sleep of our lives before the labor?? AND taking care of a newborn and 3 1/2 year old??? I am ready for the challenge, and really ready for the next adventure! BRING IT ON!!!!!

Dialated to a 3 and 80% effaced. I'm in heavy labor at a 3. That much less you'll have to dialate when it's the real thing. I need to come over and see how a 9 month pregnant Lesley looks. It's finally here, hooray!!!

You have no idea how depressed I am that I am not there to see her. I had to take my only chance to get home or would have been Utah until May. I will definitely be thinking of you tomorrow-it will be over before you know it. Good Luck and Love you guys!! Hello Little Miss Lily!!!
