Today I am 35 weeks 6 days... I've gotten quiet on the blog because there isn't much to say. I spend my days nesting like a crazy woman and chasing toddlers who have suddenly decided that they are going to push every button with a frazzled nerve underneath. My aunt is here and I feel like part of it is showing off.
I've packed almost everything that we will not need in the next few weeks, tied up some loose strings from our homeschooling year and spent way too much money on Magic Erasers. LOL!
I am contracting but irregularly and nothing is happening on the baby arrival front. At 35 weeks I'm not far along enough to help yet I'm far enough along that no extreme measures will be taken to stop me. So I'm living in baby limbo land for now.
Isaiah is NOT in a good position for labor or delivery (though he is head down) and that is part of what is causing me serious pain. I secretly feel like my VBAC odds are closing in on me and this will be a repeat csection. :/ Not thrilled in the least about that, since there are NO doctors here that will allow a patient to VBAC after 2 csections. But I digress.
The rest of the pain I feel is from a fall I took on Tuesday. Brandon and I came in from the rain and I was wearing flip flops (the only shoes that fit these days.) When I got to the kitchen tile, one leg went one way and the other went the other way and all 35 weeks pregnant of me nearly did a split. I snatched my back and grabbed the counter but walking and even sitting upright has been painful since.
This afternoon I am headed back to the chiropractor. I usually go on Mondays, but fear if I don't get in soon I'll REALLY not be able to walk this weekend.
The house closing seemed to be going smoothly, but now we seem to have hit a small snag. I'm growing weary about that because we have already turned in our notice of intent to vacate for our rental. Anyway, prayers are appreciated for that but I can't get into specifics openly on our blog.
Anyway, more of the same, pretty much.

I am excited for you, and can't wait to "meet" Isaiah. This last month or less will go so quickly, I know it doesn't feel like it from where you are though. I am sorry about the baby's position, but God has a good and perfect plan for Isaiah and that includes the way he is born. I'll be praying for you, and keeping a watch on the blog!!
