Wow, I guess it's been awhile since my last post. I've been busy getting final things ready for the hospital, things ready for the sitter for the kids, and also busy just kicking my feet up a bit. Anyway, back to my post.
Since this February we have had 7 calves, and we have watched most of them come right before a storm hit - ice storms, snows storms, rain storms, etc. Yesterday we had our 7th calf come, and last night it rained all night long.
Right now I am at the exact spot in my pregnancy when Caleb and Hannah were born. So before I went to bed I asked Ethan if he thought I might follow the path of our cows and go into labor during the night with the storm. The verdict. I am not a cow.
That's okay though. I don't really mind going a little longer with this baby. Friday and Saturday my dad is going to help Ethan hook up the pipe and the wood burning stove for our house. They are also going to insulate the mudroom - a lot of cool air sneaks in to our house through that room!
So my hopes are to actually hold off through the weekend, although I did give Ethan permission to come out and work on the house if I am in the hospital, after the baby would be born of course!

Hehe - too funny. Hopefully you'll make it through the weekend - or do what I did on my last one - go into the hospital Saturday night about 5, and go home Monday morning about 7:30. Much more relaxing at home than at the hospital. Good luck and have a good weekend.

Well -- you know... I often feel like a cow AFTER giving birth. ;)
Can you hear the wind howling over there? Hope you are staying warm.
I can't wait to meet my new cousin. err second cousin? 1st cousin once removed?
I don't know who it is, but I'm excited to meet them!
Becca, you can make Matt your first removed cousin if you'd like. :)
