Arrival Imminent

A brief update for those of you who do not follow Ben or I's facebook page: barring his decision to come on his own terms, baby "Sammy" will make his arrival sometime on July 2. I will be going in to be induced at 7 AM that morning, and we'll see how it goes from there. The doctor has prepped me for the possibility of a C-section, as Violet had a hard time getting her shoulders out, but reassured me that really, it's anybody's guess as to how well this guy will come out. Of course, we're expecting that this baby is considerably larger (the doctor threw around the 10 lb. lingo yesterday) but you still never know. Many people have told me that their bigger babies were actually easier to deliver. We shall see!

Anyway, it's nice to finally have a light at the end of the tunnel. I'm a little disappointed that I'm not there today having the baby, but the birthing center was full! And really, after 42 weeks, what's a couple more days?????
