4 weeks left...

Well, I went to the doctor (midwife) today and we set a date for an induction. As of right now I will be induced on May 11th. Finally I have a date, I feel like I am going crazy and I am ready to hold this little angel in my arms. The last month is so uncomfortable and I am so tired all of the time. There has been a big difference being pregnant at 34 than it was at 30. I thought I was in such great shape before this pregnancy but I guess this 4th baby has really taken a toll on my body. She checked me and I am dilated to a "1" so it could be earlier but I have never gone on my own, we will just have to wait and see. Travis is supposed to go to New York on the 27th for a couple of days, hopefully he can get out of it, just in case. New York is far away.

We had some friends over for Easter dinner last night and one of the families just a had a baby boy a little over a week ago. Little Tate is so sweet, it really made me excited to have a baby in the house again. I loved holding him, watching his sweet facial expressions, and listening to his angel noises. Every time I held him my little girl inside me was going crazy. She seems to move a lot when I am holding another baby, she must know it is one of her friends from heaven.

We are really looking forward to her joining our little family. Baylee and Sydney's new room was finished last Friday so we moved everything into this weekend. Now I can start to get the baby's room ready. It is always fun preparing for a new baby to come to our family. I will keep everyone updated on her arrival.
