I've been having contractions for a few hours that seem to be getting regular, so today is HOPEFULLY the day that we will welcome our third child into the world.
In the meantime, I'm planning things for my older children to do once the baby is here.
I've done one of those summer bucket lists, but changed it to include more things that they can do on their own both inside the house and in the yard.
We did a few sections-
Outings
Things to do inside
Things to do in the yard
Things that need Mom and Dad's help
Cooking
That way they can go over to the list when they are bored and find a "new" activity and do it.
They are also going to be keeping "journals" of the events just to help with writing over the summer, and because they love planning.

Still waiting ....
Still waiting, hopefully today will be the day. If not we are going to at least schedule an induction today, since I've been dilating slowly for two weeks but have still not gone into labor.
Having contractions for two weeks has been no fun, especially since it really limits any activities.
I still have my fingers crossed that I will go into labor sometime soon.

Still no baby ....
Still waiting, after hours of irregular contrations yesterday.
I had no idea that you could have contractions for almost two weeks that were both real and painful!!
Both my other pregnancies were so easy.
My older children are luckily out of the house today going to a local day camp for the week.
I was so proud of them for being excited to go, especially since my husband and I are antisocial and terrified of trying new things.
It makes me happy that so far we haven't seemed to pass that along to them.
As summer unofficially starts I can't wait for summer activities!!

As I am reaching what I hope is the final hours of this pregnancy, I am alternating between feeling sick, and having intense cravings.
Today it's cookies!!
I love desserts and my husband is an excellent baker, so I have taken to pinterest to pin cookie recipes.

First Blog Post
Although we have attempted a blog before, I'm hoping this time it will work!!
Our family consists of myself and the husband, DS 7, DD 4, and DS 0 (estimated June 2, 2013), along with 3 dogs and a turtle.
We love spending time as a family, making music, playing video games, crafts, and hanging out. Hopefully here I will be able to share many of our projects and adventures.
