Hello out there...first of all I just want all you to hear me say it...I told you so. I told y'all that I wasn't super great on this whole updating thing ....but hear goes another attempt...
1. The Pregnancy: okay, so based on my little ticker I am 39 1/2 weeks pregnant. Christmas is almost here and so is this little boy. I have finally hit 9 out 9 pre-labor signs so that means that I could pop at any time. According to the books, it means anywhere from 24 hours or a few more days. Gotta love science. As of last week, I was almost 2cm dilated and 50% effaced and the doctor had her finger on my kid's head...weird! I am still doing things like normal, just waddling a little bit more often. Brad and I bowled with the Wii for about 4 hours last night. I don't know about the whole watermelon between my legs but it feels like I went on a 30 mile bike ride and the bike seat is still in my crotch. AWESOME!!! My doctor also set up a date for induction in case Jaxson decides to draw this whole birthing process out. If we go past our due date of Christmas, then she will induce me on the night of the 27th and Jaxson would be born on the 28th. Yeah, guaranteed tax deduction!! It is sooo weird to think that regardless, in one week, Brad and I will be parents!!!!
2. Work: Well I busted my hump this past week of work so that I made sure I left no open charts on my desk. I was able to sign all of the formal documents for the doctors & insurances and even wrote updates on all of my patients so that the person covering for me doesn't get too overwhelmed. I am really looking forward to a 12 week break from work. I know that I will still be busy but it is nice to change up things a bit.
3. Nesting: I guess you could call it that or just another Saturday and Sunday in the Felder House. =) Brad and I have just about got everything done...baseboards, blinds, vents, carpet cleaning, vacuuming the garage...etc. If you ever want your house to be completely clean, just have a kid!
4. Christmas: My house is beautifully decorated with a huge tree and lots of nick knacks. Presents (most of them) are wrapped and under the tree. I am still missing a few presents but if someone has a problem with that...then I am pretty sure I have a good excuse this year. =)
5. Baby Showers: A girlfriend of mine threw me a baby shower in Round Rock this past November. It was great. I got lots of stuff and the food and company was awesome!!! Round Rock Medical Center threw me a surprise shower my last weekend there. Only a few people were able to make it but it was such a treat!!! And then Georgetown Therapy threw me a surprise shower as well. It was awesome. I was shocked because they really tried waiting until the last possible moment. I have been blessed with so many gifts and toys for Little Jaxson. I can hardly wait to try it all out. My patients have been amazing too! I have received so many special handmade items for Jaxson.
Well that is about it. I will try to get Brad to take a picture of me as my final pregnancy photo. Hopefully my next post will display the newest addition to our family!!!
P.S. Merry Christmas!!!
