Get ready, get set!!

WAIT. I went to the doctor today and I'm dilated to 3.25 cm. So we're just waiting. Waiting and waiting and hoping that something happens soon. My bones feel like they are going to crack in half...it's really not too fun. I called my Mom and she is on her way. I'm just trying to tie up loose ends at work and make sure that I'm prepared to go on leave for two months. I find it hard to plan for the unexpected though. I've installed the car seat, my hospital bag is in the trunk, my house is mostly clean...we're ready...just waiting. Fortunately, if nothing does happen on it's own, my doctor is scheduling us for an induction in my 39th week...so at least I know I won't go past my due date. I also asked him to take an educated guess at how big Zoe is. After an examination, he thinks she's roughly 7.5 lbs. I hope she comes soon! I'll keep you posted.

Last night we lazed around and watched America's Got Talent. Zoe has turned both Love and I into a couple of cry babies. If you watched, you'll remember a four-year-old girl named Kaitlyn Maher who sang "Somewhere Out There" exceptionally well for such a young girl...Love and I were in tears. Then, towards the end of the show, an insurance salesman by the name of Neil Boyd was on the stage and we heard the story about his childhood- growing up poor, with a mother who worked all the time, and how proud she is of him. He could hardly control his emotions as he was asked questions about his life and his family. We couldn't control ours as he sang "Nessun Dorma" (opera) in the most surprising, emotion filled, and amazing voice I've ever heard. All I can say is wow. I think we're hooked on the show now...
