Mrs. Play says the baby has dropped! She says it's quite a bit lower and it's pretty uncomfortable. She isn't really having any more contractions, but we'll see.

Maybe we'll resume the trampoline excercises this weekend if she doesn't go into labor on her own

Tell her to hold off until Tuesday!

I'm scared - you tell her

Here are the rules for how the scoring works;
* The player with the highest score wins the pool. Each player starts the pool with 1,000 points.
* Wrong Sex: -15 points.
* Wrong Date: -1 point per day.
* Wrong Weight: -0.5 point per ounce.
* In the event of a tie, the player with the highest score who entered their guess first will be declared the winner of the pool.

It's pretty cool actually - it's all automatic once I put in the birth information.

baby can't drop yet... she still has two weeks to go!! lol....

no trampoline or any other fun extra-curricular activities that might bring on early labor... why did I have to pick the 14th.....

But - baby pool aside.... I am SO excited for you guys - it is so close now!!!! My little guy is kicking as we speak - it is a miracle I am getting ANY work done today - I just sit here and look at my belly....

Debbie went to the doctor today. She's dilated to 3 cm and 50% effaced. She could go into labor tonight or it could still be a few days, we just have to wait and see. I did steam clean the carpets this weekend, so I think we've done everything we needed to get done before the baby comes.

She walked about a mile while I rode bikes with the boys earlier. She's having some contractions but nothing really regular. Looks like I might be getting lucky tonight

You and me both, we had a rough go at it last time. 2 weeks in NICU is hell to go through...

Even with keet taking first driving test, it still beats labor, huh?

Any day now, Bill!

Went to the doctor yesterday (I'm 36 weeks now) and he said "yep, you'll be pregnant next week!" Famous last words, right? But let's hope b/c like I've told you, I need this baby to bake until September 22 at the earliest!

And I still haven't done a thing to get ready! Starting to get overwhelmed.

Going to Lake Chautauqua with my family this weekend. I hope I can kick back and relax b/c I won't be doing much of that in the near future.

Oh, and Happy Birthday to me today! 20 days before my baby's expected birthday!!

He is actually getting pretty good at it. It's still scary for me (and my insurance rates!)

Good luck to all the Mommies. I know the feeling of waiting. The morning I was to have Ms Mollie, as we walked into the hospital (she was a scheduled C) Hubby asked "Are you ready to do this?"...I said no! See, at that point, she was MY baby. After she was born, I had to share...something I am not very good at when it comes to my children.

So now I'm off to take Mollie to the doctor. Her asthma is givng her a nightmare!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!! I hope you have a wonderful day!!! I love the lake you are going to - we went there last year when we were in NC - took a pontoon boat out for the day - it was gorgeous! 18 mile lake... "Big Bertha" - the kids loved it!

Bill - looks like I am no way near the date so I guess you have my permission to get lucky - if I were closer in the pool I would have to say no...
