Due Date...Yeah Right!

Well, it's officially my due date!  I can't believe I actually made it to this day, but I guess weirder things have happened.  As you can see from my picture above, Eli is still very much happy in his amniotic home.  I wish I could tell you I'm having contractions as I type, but unfortunately, I'm still feeling really good!  We made a trip to the hospital today to get an EKG for Eli to make sure he isn't under any stress.  He is a healthy little boy with a perfect heartbeat, so he'll stay put for a little while longer.  They did tell us that we can induce him on Friday, January 9 if he doesn't come on his own before then.  I'm not sure why, but being induced scares me a tad.  I think because right now I'm in complete ignorant bliss about when he'll come.  Putting a time and date on his arrival makes all this a little more real!  I just hope I can sleep now!  I would also like your prayers because I recently came down with a cold.  Since you can't take much of anything when your pregnant, I don't feel the best.  Plus, how am I supposed to breathe through contractions if I can't breathe?  :o)  Anyway, we promise to keep you posted on any baby alerts!

p.s. Happy Birthday to my sweet future sis-in-law, Dani!
