Waiting.......

Yesterday afternoon I had my 37 week appointment and there is still nothing going on. I am not even effaced at all! I am starting to think that maybe Wyatt does want to stay warm and cozy for as long as he can. I know I still have 3 weeks left and my doctor is trying to make me realize that but I just want there to be something. He will not schedule me to be induced until there is something going on. He mentioned that about 10% of first time moms go over their due date so that did not help at all yesterday. I wanted to cry! He does not want to me to be induced if there is nothing going on until after my due date which is the 20th. I just want my baby boy here for Christmas more than anything. If that means we have Christmas on the 27th, then we will have our Christmas then. But, we dont want to forget the real meaning of Christmas and that is the birth of our savior Jesus Christ. God has blessed us with this baby and we know he has a plan already planned for his birth. So, Ryan and I are just waiting to see what happens. In the meantime I am still going to keep my bags packed and ready to go, cause I have heard of people going into labor at anytime even after being told the same thing. We would love to have our baby boy here as quickly as possible but we want more to have a healthy baby that is ready to come when he wants to, plus I do have three more weeks! I go back to the doctor next week and will keep you all updated.

Maybe Wyatt wants to be your Christmas present. Don't worry Julia, if you have that little boy on Christmas day Shaun, Lillian and I will all be there!
