Any day now!

Well, Addison should be here any day now. I went ahead and took leave from work as I'm having contractions at 10 minutes apart and my doctor didn't think I should be driving. I've been resting a lot or as much as I can anyway. Last Thursday I started having contractions at work and they continued to get closer into Friday so I finally called the doctor's office and they said to get up to the hospital. I ended up at the clinic because labor and delivery was full so they checked me there and had me on the monitor. Basically my contractions weren't consistant enough and I was only dilated to 1 so they sent me home. Mom went ahead and came up as we feared if I did have it she wouldn't make it through the snow storm. We did end up getting nearly a foot of snow so it was a good thing she made it here. It was nice to spend that time together even though Addison decided it wasn't quite time to join us.

Monday I had my regular appointment so mom went with me and they said I'm dilated to 3 so when my contractions get closer to 5 to come back up. Now I'm just waiting at home. I knew people were probably wondering what's going on so I thought I'd better update everyone.

6 lbs. 6 oz.

Well, we went to the doctor yesterday and they did an ultrasound. Everything looks well. They estimate her at 6 lbs. 6 oz. Right now it's just a waiting game. Scottie told the doctor he believes she'll be here before Christmas and after checking me the doctor agreed that this could be a possibility so at this point we'll just wait and see. I think we have most everything ready for her. We got the last of what we needed that day so that's a relief. We'll continue to keep everyone updated each week.
