Well, here I am, 5 days past my due date and still pregnant. I have another non-stress test Tuesday and a doctor appointment Wednesday. If I haven’t gone into labor by Wednesday, I think I’m going to ask for an induction. Hopefully, they can schedule it Thursday. And then from there, I’ll hope that by the end of Thursday I’ll have the baby. I’d really like to have the baby before lunch Thursday. That would be really nice. I could be out of the hospital probably Saturday to enjoy a long weekend with my husband & 2 kids. That’s going to take some getting used to saying. We’ll keep everyone updated as to when the baby joins us.
I am very slow. I signed up for this contest a couple of days ago and totally forgot to post it here. If you have kids, or are accident prone like I am, you should run over and sign up for this.

Wow! The girls at 5minutesformom.com sure are busy this Mother’s Day. I’m a little behind as they have 4 more contests going and have more to come.
So far, they have
1. Best Buy’s Special Mother’s Day Apple iPod Nano
2. handmade Mei Tai baby carrier from All Natural Mommies
3. “Hannah Keeley’s Total Mom Makeover – The Six Week Plan to Completely Transform Your Home, Health, Family, and Life.”
4. jewelry from Designing Diva
5. a $40 gift certificate for Alli’s Originals
We went to the doctor today. He said the baby’s head is down and I’m dilated to 1cm. I’m actually having contractions periodically now, which is a good thing. I never had contractions with Matthew before I actually went into labor. They’re just helping to move the baby down…maybe I’ll actually make my due date.
On a happy note, it seems that one of my sisters will be moving down closer to me. She’s gotten a job in Ann Arbor, but will be living much closer to our home. Yes! Free babysitting at last!!!!
There’s a new contest, actually a whole bunch of them, over at 5minutesformom.com. Go on over there and check them out. The first is for an Apple iPod. Good luck to everyone.
