Didn’t sleep much last night, and baby spent much of the time wiggling and stretching under my ribs. Hoping to get a break in the weather so that we can go for a walk, a long, vigorous walk.
My mom has a new blog and has posted pictures of the baby shower here:Â http://pschouviller.blogspot.com/

Mom has started feeling a little bit less comfortable, so we are headed into Olympia to pick up some Blue and Black Cohosh.

And so we wait, baby is still not ready I guess. Maybe he/she prefers June. We have a few movies to watch (The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus should have come in the mail :)), and we are just going to take it easy today.

Maureen and Annabella visited today, and we all went out to dinner at Peurto de Angeles (spicy food again). We met Dad and Cathy at the restaurant. When we got home, Maureen gave me a massage, focusing on labor-inducing pressure points in my legs and feet. This technique has worked for several of her clients (her friend Sarah’s water broke immediately after).
Still no baby, but the night is young….

Well, approximately anyway. Baby is calm this morning after being very active yesterday. I took a long nap after getting back from town and slept fairly well last night, so I am feeling rested, relaxed and ready.

and for a walk. We thought that we would check out the Nisqually Wildlife Refuge as the estuary restoration project there was recently completed. Maybe we will eat some spicy food afterward, and maybe the baby will be coming tonight! We will keep you posted.
Love,
the Muffs

Hello from the baby’s Mamma. We saw our fabulous midwife this afternoon, and it looks like I am about 4 cm dilated and 90% effaced. I am still feeling great :). We think that it might be tomorrow…or not. But we will keep you posted, promise.

We thought that we could best keep friends and family apprised of our progress via a blog. We will be posting periodically, and Isabella will be updating closer to the arrival :).
