Dillema

So, we still haven't had the baby, and now if I don't have it in 2 more days I have to do all these dumb tests. I know the baby is fine, but I think it is mad that it is running out of room. So, after my doctors appointment today I was dialated to a 1 (I guess that's better than nothing!), I'm thinking that I'm just going to take some castor oil tomorrow afternoon and see what happens. What do you think? Is it worth the wonderful side effects ie diarahea?? Do you know anyone who has tried it and it worked?? Let me know what you think.

Sunday Activities

As a mom, some days you have just had it. All of you moms know those days. Being overdue is not an exception to the rule. I decided not to go to church (because I didn't want to have to answer any ones dumb questions), instead my friend (who goes to church early so I didn't have her skip with me), and I went on a walk. We had a great time, but unfortunately it didn't do anything except I did have to go to the bathroom a lot. When everyone got home from church I just wasn't in the mood to do much with the kids, but thankfully they found some stuff to do all by themselves.
Chad was kind enough to sit down after church and play a roaring game of Candyland with the kids. They were so funny to watch, and it is great to see how well Owen knows his colors. You never know if they are really getting what you teach them. Claire can finally play the game without needing much direction, so it is so nice!

Claire and Owen got this great idea to take an old drain pipe (I'm sure it feel off the house), and put their cars down the chute. Owen would sit at the end and catch them, and Claire would drop them through. It was so great to see them having fun at something they created themselves.

A Visit From Great Grandma and Grandpa

On September 10th (my due date), Great Grandma and Grandpa Farmer were traveling to Utah, and stopped to stay at our house. This was the first time they have ever seen where I live away from home, so it was so nice to have them come and visit us. They Left for Utah the next day, but stayed again on Saturday on their way back home. Claire and Owen loved having them come and stay with us, and had so much fun. Claire keeps asking me when her Great Grandma is going to come again.

It's Time to Bet

Kristine had a great idea. I'm going to start taking bets when this baby comes. Let me just tell you that Claire was 15 days late before I got induced and Owen was only 4 days late and came all by himself. So, you may place your bet, and we'll see who wins!! You won't really win anything but pride, but hey that's something!

We're still waiting!!! :-)

Update

So, I went to the doctor today, and this time I had her check me. It comes as no surprise that I am dialated to a 0 and the baby is still high. So, don't bother calling us soon, I will be pregnant forever!!!

Today is my due date, and yes, I'm still pregnant!!!!
