My most favorite season and my fall baby will be here before I know it! Fall officially starts on Tuesday, and my little man is due in less than a week!
I just love fall and everything that comes with it - the colorful falling leaves that eventually crunch under my feet, the cooler, crisp weather, pumpkins, candy apples...I could go on and on. And what to make it even more special this year than our new addition! Although it may take longer than a week for him to actually make his debut, I am getting so anxious to meet and hold him and see what he looks like.
Last Monday at my doctor visit, I was MAYBE dilated to 1 cm, so not much progress. I have my weekly appointment scheduled for tomorrow, so we'll see if anything has changed. I'm not holding my breath though. This is a very typical pattern with my pregnancies. I'm sure this little guy would just take up permanent residence inside me like Tyler and Allison both wished to do. So if he doesn't decide to get here on his own before October 2, an induction will be planned once again. Not what I would like to have happen, but what do you do? I'll keep you posted!

A Little Pregnancy Update
I'm 15 weeks today and thankful to be getting further away from the first trimester! No more fatigue. No more queasiness at dinner time. This part wasn't even major, it just made it difficult to cook dinner for my family, and then even if I did, eating it was out of the question. But that's all in the past now. I am really lucky that I don't have any issues with extreme sickness during pregnancy. I really feel for those of you that do.
I only have one complaint about this part of pregnancy. Since no one else can really tell that I'm showing yet, but I can tell my pants are getting tighter, I feel like everyone must think that I've just been eating one Twinkie too many for dessert each night. (I don't really even like Twinkies, but you get it, right?) Anyway, if you're looking for a "belly pic," I'm sorry. I don't do belly pics. I'll still allow my picture to be taken, I just can't get into taking side-profile pictures of myself every month.
On a more pleasant note, I have started feeling the baby move! I know it's a bit earlier than "the books" say it happens, but it's certainly not a time that is set in stone. When I was pregnant with Tyler, it took much longer for me to experience this sensation. But with Allison, and now this baby, I was able to feel it much sooner. Allison turned out to be a VERY active baby, and I was certain she was going to be a gymnast by the number of somersaults she did inside me! So maybe we have another "go-getter" on our hands! We shall see.
