Baby O update

I went to my doctor on Tuesday, having the feeling that were would be no changes from the previous week. Yup, I was right. Baby's head is down and has dropped, but still no dialation. I notice Dr. Cline looking at the calendar, and I'm thinking to myself, Yes, let's schedule something! Dr. Cline then, says that she would like to induce on either Monday or Tuesday of next week. We're are so excited!! I called Chris after my appointment, told him and he was thrilled. We then called our parents to let them know. Both sets of parents will be able to make it down on Sunday, and be here for a few days afterwards. I'm hoping that with the induction that I won't have to have a c-section, but I am prepared for that if it needs to be. All that matters right now, is Baby getting here in a healthy way. We will post pictures as soon as we get some down time next week!

Black Friday Shopping & Christmas Decorating

We woke up early to do some Black Friday shopping today. Couldn't believe how many people were at Wal-Mart. It was a madhouse. We then hit all the other good shopping stores that were on our list. I was hoping that I could shop my way into labor :) After hours of shopping, we came home, all of us took a much needed rest. Once we were energized, we decided we needed to go back to Wal-Mart (I guess we were interested to see the aftermath), came home and began our Christmas decorating throughout the house. It was nice, because Mom & Dad helped us re-arrange our furniture to make room for the Christmas tree. I definitely wouldn't have been able to do that. Here are some pictures of the decorating.

Thanksgiving Overdue

Thanksgiving Day. It was one of my favorite Thanksgivings so far. We were happy to have my Mom & Dad drive in from OK, and they were willing to do the cooking...hey, I'm as big as the turkey these days. Chris and I went to the Shreveport/Bossier Rescue Mission to help serve meals during the lunch shift. After our volunteering, we came home, and enjoyed our Thanksgiving feast.
This year we are thankful for so many things...
*for our freedom and the brave men & women who protect it
*for our parents and the constant love & support they give to us
*for our brothers & sisters, we may be apart in distance, but only phone calls away
*for Ryan & Justin W, who have shown us what heroism looks like
*for my good dogs, who will never care about anything, but the heart we give them
*for our friends, good times and good memories always
*for my WONDERFUL husband, who is my best friend in the entire world
*for the Air Force, who couldn't given us a better PCS. Nice to be closer to family and friends
*for the healthy unborn baby who will be born in a few short weeks-we can't to meet him/her
