Eric and Lisa

This past Thursday (April 6th), we had a very interesting doctor's appointment. During the exam, Dr. Stauffer looked up at me and said, "Are you sure you're not in labor?" Apparently, I had dilated 2 more centimeters during the week (a total of 3cm), and was around 90% effaced. However, I wasn't (and still am not) feeling many contractions -- only the occasional Braxton-Hicks -- so I'm really not in labor, but it was funny to see the look on his face! He seems to think I'm not going to make it to my due date, but we'll see. You never know with these types of things! Babies come pretty much whenever they please. At least we shouldn't be too surprised if he does come early.

Anyway, we had a very nice weekend together. We were able to enjoy a lot of sunshiny spring weather, and even went on a date Friday night. Yesterday morning we went to an IU football scrimage and almost froze our buns off in the chilly morning breeze! The sun was nice, though, and the team was fun to watch. Yesterday and today, we also went to a local park where Eric disc golfed and I served as his "caddy." It was so nice to be outside two days in a row and get some good exercise. We both feel better.

We're just trying to be patient and not too anticipatory for the upcoming BIG event. That's pretty hard though, now that we know things are really in motion!
