Coming Soon....

This is pretty much how I feel right about now.

Excited beyond belief.

I had my 39 week check up today, and although I haven't changed one bit, miraculously my doctor said she will induce me.

When?

THIS COMING SUNDAY!!!

....As in October 18th, at 7 am.

I don't know why she changed her mind (remember she said she wouldn't induce me unless I was 7 days over due), but she is going out of town and said she wanted to be the one to deliver this baby.

I'll take it.

AND...I did pray that she would be open to the idea of inducing me early (I was thinking we would meet somewhere in the middle...like 4 days overdue...but I'll take 4 days early instead)!!

Conclusion: I am so excited, beaming with joy, and thrilled beyond belief to get to meet my little boy in less than 3 days. I also have to testify here that God does hear and answer prayers...even when we don't deserve them, and when they are perhaps selfish (as demonstrated here). I am so thankful for a Father in Heaven who is merciful and kind to a poor, over-pregnant, undeserving daughter of His.

Wish us luck and perhaps pray for me around 9am-9pm on Sunday....I will likely be in a lot of pain around those hours. =)

Great news! Are you sure you don't want to be induced around noon, just so you can enjoy (endure) the primary program with us? He he! Just kidding. We'll be thinking of you.
