The Evans

As my due date approaches tomorrow, I have been getting more and more excited to meet this little Alex. I keep wondering what he will look like...like daddy or mommy or maybe neither of us. I am now on my 3rd week off work which is hard to believe. Time is flying by so quickly. Normally, if I had been off work this long, I would have been bored out of my mind and going crazy, but I think I was so tired that this has really been a much needed break and I am glad I did it so that I could be fully refreshed and ready for Alex when he arrives. It is not like my job is physical easy to do.

Chris's dad, Don, gets home tomorrow and my mom is now starting to feel better from being sick so I think it is perfect time for Alex to think about coming.

Overall, I have been feeling good considering I am 40 weeks pregnant. I had a doctor's appointment yesterday and my doctor was practically ready to induce me if I had agreed to it. I think it is crazy. I have been planning for a natural birth experience using child birth hypnosis and spent many hours practicing for this. My doctor says she will let me go until 41 weeks and 6 days but doubted I would go much past tomorrow. I think she just jinxed us from having Alex more sooner than later by that comment. Maybe she knows what she is talking about though. My body is definitely acting like it is getting ready and Dr. Bird said I am in early labor. Cross our fingers he comes soon.
