Get Set…

I had my weekly doctor’s appointment yesterday morning. It was the first one that Andy didn’t make it to because he was driving the Brown Truck. He’s decided to not drive again until after the baby comes just in case he’s in the middle of a route and things start happening around here.

The doctor called me 2-3 cm, still 70% effaced and in -3 position. I told her how sore my ribs were. She asked if I wanted her to talk to the baby and tell him to move down towards the exit. Definitely!

I spent the early afternoon yesterday with my mom. She gave me some homemade noodles,Dinners In The Freezer a zucchini, summer squash and new red potatoes. When I got home, I made zucchini bread, cocoa zucchini cake and some muffins. SO GOOD! I also made one more lasagna (my 6th one but now there’s 4 in the freezer). Today I am baking a Christmas turkey. I used some of the potatoes and squash as part of my turkey stock. I will be attempting turkey gravy. Cooking, baking and preparing food for our freezer has been part of my “nesting” experience. The photo is a list of the entrees I have made on our refrigerator with index cards behind it on how to prepare them.

I’d like to get this labor going! We’re due one week from today. The receptionist scheduled my next doctor’s appointment for a week from Thursday. I told her I hope to have a baby before then!

    PS, my nesting has begun with cleaning, clean clean clean, I found myself wiping Maya (dog) off with wet wipe from a restaurant the other day and thought to myself, “What in the world am I doing?” :)
