I had an appointment yesterday and it went pretty well.  I was a little worried because since the Thursday before I was ordered to "rest".  This weekend was rough.  I just want to do what I want to do.  I was driving Andy crazy with lists upon lists of things I really want to do, but I was good and did nothing.  Other than enjoy Andy's family that came in town for the weekend.So at my appointment he checked me and I am not dilated at all and starting to thin out a little, which is normal for me at this point.  The baby has finally switched and is not longer transverse, which is always good.  The heartbeat was at a steady 167.  We scheduled the section for May 2.  I get to be there at 5:30 am!  It is so crazy to think how fast this day will come!  Am I ready?  I know one thing, I am not sure I am ready for Paxton to not be my baby.  He is starting to seem really big and old and starting to slim down, so I guess the time has come, but to me, they will all always be my babies!
We still have no idea if this sweet baby will be a girl or a boy.  I go back and forth.  I really think it is a boy, mostly because that is what we do.  We make boys.  For the first 19 weeks I was sure it was a boy then we had our ultrasound and I was really confused because I really felt like the baby was a girl.  Since then, I have been confused.  I am not sure.  I don't really care either way.  Every one else really seems to, but I don't, I do just wish I knew already though!  I ready to get things ready.  I do have a girl and a boy outfit to take to the hospital, so I guess I am covered!
So with only four weeks to go, I am hoping that many things will get crossed off my list, many bonding moments will occur with the five children we have and a lot of rest will be had by yours truly!  FOUR weeks seems entirely too soon!

Can I just say that while you are fine not knowing whether you are having a boy or a girl this represents a bit of a problem for me - someone that owes you a long over-due knitting gift. I guess I will just try and be patient but seriously!
Whew Terica, it's been a long time but I see you are doing great! Can't wait to see this baby! You are so blessed! Best of luck!
I can't wait to find out. A boy...a girl... Either one would be so exciting!!!
