The Home Stretch

Well, we are now in the homestretch of this pregnancy.

Denise had her last OB appointment yesterday (Wednesday). There was nothing really new to report as her blood pressure was a little high and there was very little dialation. So we are still on track for a C-Section next Tuesday, September 2nd.

The C-Section was scheduled for 7:30 in the morning, but now has been moved to 9:30 in the morning. So that means we will have to be at the hospital at 7:30 instead of 5:30. A couple of more hours of sleep, if we get any the night before. I sense a lot of tossing and turning in our future!!!

Otherwise there is not a whole lot else going on here other than making sure we are ready for Elizabeth's arrival. Since Dr. Mirau has put Libby's birth weight somewhere between 10 and 11 pounds, we have been going through the clothes we had out and trying to decide what may fit and what may not. We have also been looking at the diapers and just kind of laughing that she probably won't fit in those either. We do have some of the next size on hand, just in case.

We did make it up to The Uptown in Wadena last Saturday night for their grand opening. Our friends, Jim and Traci Formanek, bought the establishment in June and have been busy putting their touches on the business. The food was great as was the party. We hope they have many years of success in front of them.

Well, I am going to sign off and see what else I can get accomplished tonight! Everyone have a great Labor Day Weekend and I hope to be able to blog and get pictures up from the hospital!

Troy, Denise and Elizabeth
