Just to let people know - the baby is still cookin! Craig didn't get his 4th of July baby - Marcus' friend Sal did though!!! Baby Sal was born that evening!
Doing good - we all survived the first "official" holiday without mom - it sucked as expected! But we got through it. Poor dad was recruited by both his kids this weekend to help out - I think we tuckered him out but good! but we both got a lot done. Marcus's house was totally ready to be sold and between dad and Craig - we have things moving forward for baby B to arrive. Oh - we still hvae a lot to do and organization to complete - but we are better than we were the other day. Tonights task - packing the bag for the hospital. I now have the baby's clothes and blankets washed - so taht will help. Even have a few coming home outfits to wear - I bought one girl and one boy outfit a few months back.
Next Dr. appointment is on Thurday - will keep everyone posted. If my feet continue the path they did this weekend - not sure what they will do - I can barely get my shoes or even socks on at this point- they are just that swollen. Even turned a little purple the other day - not fun. Overall - achy! this weekend was the first - difficult sleeping period - maybe because of the heat and just a lot of little practice contractions as I call them. Body is preparing for the big day! But heck - in the whole picture - I still am pretty lucky with so little problems or anything with this pregnancy - had all of them before hand trying to get this miracle child! Now lets hope this kid will be just as good in real life. Heck - As Craig and I like to say - the older child is usually the better one! Ha - I know Marcus doesn't read this - so I can joke about that - but incase - marcus and Jennifer - we love you both!

Hey now - I resent that older child comment! I'd have to say the youngest child is best... LOL!
I check this page everyday to see if your little miracle has arrived yet. God bless you during this exciting time of your lives.
You are all in our prayers and I know God is holding you close!
Blessings, Denise
Sounds like you have an excellent baby sitter, and it is so good for Doug.
Anything more on the hearing problem? In my day we never tested a newborn for hearing, so I think there is nothing to worry about.
I check this site daily for updates.I love to see his picture and needless to say, I made a print!
