37 weeks...it won't be long!!

37 weeks!! Spencer can come anytime!!! I am definitely ready. Going to the doctor is an all day event now-a-days. I go to the doctor's office, then to Labor and Delivery Triage for tests and then back to the doctor's office. It's an hour drive up there and hour drive back, so it usually wears me out. Everybody I see tells me he can't drop any lower without falling out. Several women friends at the bank are taking bets on whether I make it through the week with no baby or not. One of them calls me just about everyday to see if they won or not.

Anyway, Clay has decided he doesn't want to be a big brother and that Spencer should just stay in Mommy's tummy. He doesn't want GiGi to come see him but only because he doesn't want her to sleep in his bed. I on the other hand am very ready for GiGi to be here. Clay demands a lot of energy!!!!!

Well, I made it to 35 weeks. Spencer can come any day now. I am definetely ready. You can compare this picture with the one posted a couple of weeks ago and see how GIGANTIC I am!! Hopefully, I will post more Wednesday after my doctor's appointment unless I'm having him!

I've decided that maybe I spend too much time on the computer and phone. I have been having trouble with my internet and having to talk to technical support a lot. I bought Clay this computer to help him learn his letters. The first thing he did was run get his "cell phone" and call the guy because his internet wasn't working and he couldn't check his e-mail.

He loves his computer now though. He knows most of letters but his favorite is "H" for horse.

Clay did soooooo great at the dentist!!!!!!!!

Clay is soooooooo awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Once he got used to the room and looked at all the tools, for example, the flashlight that hangs from the ceilings so Dr. Rosen never loses it, the TV that is also attached to the ceiling, the chair that lays back, the funny looking metal toothpick, and the very small mirror, he opened his mouth and let Dr. Rosen count his teeth. He has 20 of them by the way. Dr. Rosen said that his teeth looked really great and do not have any plaque build up to make a cleaning necessary!! He told Clay to keep brushing like a big boy. Clay got several surprises including a new toothbrush that looks like a yellow Crayola marker and has a suction cup on the end so he can stick it to the mirror and not lose it, his very own MINT flavored floss that he does not have to share with Mom, lots of stickers and a coupon for free ice cream from Wendy's. He had to use the floss to demonstrate to Dr. Rosen how to floss. It was really cute!! The assistant is Cassidy and she was really great with Clay. He told them thank you and said he would come back later!!

I survived the doctor...

I survived the doctor and the day in Springfield. The doctor's appointment went good except I have lost weight. He wants me to go as long as possible with this baby so that we can be sure he will be big enough. Spencer would not let them get a heart rate on him. He woudl kick hard enough to knock the doppler off my stomach. He doesn't like the pressure I guess. Maybe too much of Clay mashing on him?!?!?! I also went to meet with the anesthesiologist. My pain management is going to be easy - give me drugs and lots of them.
Anyway, I also went and registered at Toys'R'Us/Babies'R'Us and Wal-mart just to get an idea of what we are going to need. We won't need much but I sure found lots I want. I can't wait until he gets here. I had forgotten how small he will be until I got a diaper sample in the mail yesterday.

Clay goes to the dentist tomorrow for the first time ever! I think he's excited but he doesn't understand really. We'll let you know how it goes!!!!

April Fool's Day!

Well, I decided this morning I would be really mean and call or text everybody and tell them I was in LABOR!!! After thinking about it though, I'm pretty sure someone would have killed me. 45 days to go before my due date, but I'm kinda hoping Spencer decides he has run out of room before that. We still haven't decided on a middle name but hopefully we can agree shortly!
Clay has decided that if Spencer comes out all yucky that we will have to put him back. He asks about every other day if Spencer is big enough to come out or not.
Tomorrow is April 2nd and I have a doctor's appt. On the 3rd, Clay has his first ever dentist appointment. It's going to be a busy week!
