Baby Tomorrow?

Two Potato may actually make an appearance tomorrow!  I now have a scheduled induction tomorrow morning at 7am, if he won't come out on his own we are going to force him out.  Originally it was thought an induction wouldn't be possible because of my previous C-section, but all the stars have aligned and now the induction is possible.

Unfortunately now his actual time of arrival is still up in the air, it could be tomorrow or not until Wednesday, again only Two Potato knows.  The latest update from my appointment today is he is estimated to weigh around 8 pounds.

My sister, Lisa, will occasionally post updates on the blog tomorrow as possible.


Our last outing as a family of 3 was yesterday to local plant nursery to get mums and pumpkins.  John and Julia then had a fun afternoon of planting the mums and digging for worms.

Monkeying Around

It's looking like Two Potato is not much for deadlines, since it is
highly unlikely that he will arrive before midnight tonight.

Julia doesn't know we hoped her baby brother would be here by today
she is just happy to monkey around.

Where's Julia

Two Potato still has not made an appearance, now Julia is getting in
on the hiding game.

Names

John and I still haven't settled on an official name for Two Potato.  Yesterday, we had Julia practice saying the names we are considering just to see if she could pronounce all of them.  After she said all the names, I asked her which name was her favorite.  She proudly said "Tangled".

While that wasn't one of the choices, I guess we have to add that to our list.

Tying Ties

Julia has become an 'expert' at helping daddy with his ties for work.  She helps him pick out and put on his tie every morning.  What she doesn't know is he only actually needs a tie on about once a week, so John leaves the house with her chosen tie on and now has a collection of ties in the glove compartment of his car.

Just Hanging Out

39 Weeks

I am officially 39 weeks pregnant and convinced at this point that Two Potato won't be out until Christmas.  Julia keeps asking if baby brother is ready to come out yet and I just have to say, "not yet" and her response is usually "he is still sleeping and growing".  Yesterday she asked when he was coming out and I told her he would be out in 8 days, she responded "Thursday", so her guess is that he will be born Thursday, September 8th.  

Julia loves to tickle baby brother.

We also got to have a "Poop Party" with Julia on Saturday with Grampa and Grammy Carole.  Julia is potty trained but was still having issues pooping on the potty, so we promised her a poop party when she consistently went on the potty without accidents.  She said she wanted cupcakes, party hats, and friends at her party.
