What's Going to Happen

35 1/2 Weeks!
(my sweater is not dirty, the mirror is)
Ok, I made it to 35 weeks, which is good, really good.
After Thursday's ordeal, at the hospital, 
my doctor wants me to get in ASAP tomorrow for another ultrasound.
If baby scores all 8 possible points for fluid, tone, movement and respiration, 
then we will be fine, if not, 
we are suspecting to deliver this week.
Our 15th Anniversary is Tuesday, 
so Tom is betting on a Tuesday Anniversary date at the hospital.
I'd really, of course like to at least make it to after Christmas when I'm 37 weeks, 
But
baby will come when God wants him/her to!
If it happens this week, I will let Margaret post an update for me so 
I won't leave you hanging, 
but after that, I will.
(leave you hanging)
I'll be busy, kissing that sweet baby 
and 
all my other babies.
And my husband

 Just in case I'm not here (and I'm at the hospital)
Our 15th Wedding Anniversary is Tuesday!!
Oh, how I love this man.
With each day, 
each child,
each smile,
each and every little thing that happens,
because in actuality they are not little things, but 
big things in our life together.
Oh, the things I'd love to tell this young couple.
But then, they would not grow the way they have grown 
with each other 
and for each other.

To the love of my life,
I'll love you always forever.

Thank you so very much for all your wonderful prayers, they mean the world to us,
and pray for you in return.

(OK, last post for today, I posted 2 craft posts earlier too,
got all the laundry done, baby's crib ready, burp pads out, car seat ready,
clothes ready (for both sexes) and so I guess I'm nested)

****Update****
No baby today (Monday)
I got 8 points on the ultrasound today and 
My fluid level was 8
We'll see what tomorrow brings...

  7. Oh my goodness! It must be hard to believe that you might meet your baby in just a matter of hours. Being one week later than you, I know I'm in shock! I had contractions big time tonight and just kept thinking, this is NOT the time! But like you said, when it's their time, it's their time. Praying for you friend as you await your baby's arrival!

  18. You certainly are a beautiful couple and it continues into your amazing children. All I have to do is open up one of your posts and gaze at the header and I feel better looking at their smiling faces. I also have John-Paul at the PrayMoreNovenas praying for you and the baby. Loved the pictures you shared today.
    Hugs,
    Odie
