Well, we are now officially 3 days past "Lucy's" due date... but I'm surprisingly alright with it! After a small period of thinking that "maybe" she was coming Tuesday night into Wednesday morning (I had recognizable contractions for the first time!), I was a little bummed to have a Dr. appt. and find out that I really hadn't progressed as I had thought and that it would probably still be a little while. So, I've reset my expectations and am settling in knowing that it might be a few more days! My Dr. still doesn't want us to go over 41 weeks and there was an opening at the hospital on Monday, so if she doesn't make her appearance on her own before then, we'll be induced Monday morning! So three more days really isn't all that long at all!

I think I've decided on her coming home outfit! I laugh because coming home from the hospital for us is like 8 blocks! Ha! But it's still going to be a momentous occasion. So, I've wanted to select her little outfit carefully! I think I wrote this in a previous entry, but I had 4 outfits all packed for her so I could decide once I saw her... But then my good friend Jana came to have lunch with me last week and brought her this ADORABLE little shirt and hat above and from the moment I saw it, I knew that this was the outfit! That is, if it fits her. It might be a little big...but even so, I'm putting it on her for a little while at least! She truly is our little miracle and I continue to thank God for her everyday...

Stay tuned. It shouldn't be long now! Please keep praying for a smooth and healthy delivery of our sweet girl...

Continuing to wait in HOPE... jen
