We were able to get away from Minnesota for a few days this past weekend. Was nice to see family. Was also nice having older cousins and Aunts and Grandma to take care of Addie while I laid on the recliner and rested. I had a fever both Saturday and Sunday - not sure what was up with that. Joel got to finally test out a chainsaw he bought from Menards on some trees down by the river at his parent's place. Not sure why we needed one, but it was a good one that was on sale and he said, "We'll need it eventually". :) True. Maybe. Guys are always thinking ahead. We visited with Great Grandma Poff for a bit at the nursing home. Keep her in your prayers to stay comfortable. My fever was gone by Monday - I felt much better, and then it was time to drive home. Glad I didn't go into labor on Labor Day. :)
Had my 37-wk. appt. this morning. I'm 3cm dilated now and 60-70% effaced. I'm ready to have the baby because, well, I just want to see what this little guy or girl looks like. :) And let's face it - I'm starting to get uncomfortable now, especially sleeping. But on the other hand I'm not ready. Having a toddler and a brand new baby is definitely going to be a change and exhausting. Hang on baby! Not QUITE yet! We'll see what God has in store in the next few weeks.
