Induction...

I went to the doctor today (40 weeks and 4 days), and I am still not dilated more than a fingertip. Because I am overdue, my doctor wants to induce labor. We will go to the hospital Wednesday night for cervical ripening, and then we will induce on Thursday morning. We chose Thursday, July 22nd for Jaden's birthday to coincide with my Grandma's birthday and Matthew's Great-Grandma's birthday. We are excited for him to share his birthday with two such special people. :) Please keep us in your prayers over the next few days. The next time I write, I will officially be a mommy!!!

Due date is tomorrow!!!

Jaden is due to arrive tomorrow. However, as of Tuesday my cervix is still closed, so it's looking quite possible that I will be induced late next week. We will just have to wait and see if he wants to come on his own or with a little help from the hospital.

Here are some pictures of the completed nursery and of my belly (gray shirt - 37 weeks, pink shirt - 38 weeks, black shirt - 39 weeks).
