Lily Update

Well, I had my doctor's appointment this afternoon and she said everything is still looking good. I'm dilated to almost three centimeters (not that that means anything because I was exactly the same with Luke), but at least I'm making progress. They got me on the schedule to be induced next Monday, January 5th, although that doesn't necessarily mean we will for sure be having a baby that day. I have to call the hospital at 5:30 Monday morning to find out if they have room for us and when. If they get a Sunday night rush of women in labor we might not get in, in which case my doctor will just have to try and get me in later in the week.

I'm still hoping that I might go into labor on my own before then, and I'm trying not to get my hopes too far up for Monday. I know she will be here soon enough, but I am so ready to meet her, not to mention how much I am looking forward to not being pregnant anymore!

No promises, but we will try and update to let everyone know what's going on come Monday!

Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas this year. Luke was so much fun. He was so excited to see what "HoHo" (as he calls Santa) had brought him on Christmas morning. There is nothing like seeing a little boy's face light up to make you remember how magical Christmas is.

We were so lucky to be able to spend Christmas with all of our family and we are looking forward to next year when Lily will be here to join us!
