36 weeks and counting...

I'm now 36 4/7 days pregnant.  Still having a hard time grasping that concept!  Our little baby will be here before we know it.  And it's looking like sooner rather than later. At my appointment yesterday I am already 2 cm dilated and 60% effaced.  Things are progressing quicker than I imagined.  Normally this wouldn't be a big deal, but the space shuttle launched today (yay for that!), but Jeff is working this mission, which may cause a few hiccups should I go into labor before July 17.  But I won't be working during this time, so I can lay low at the house and not do too much and hopefully keep cooking this baby for another 2 weeks.  I'm getting more and more uncomfortable everyday, but that is the nature of the beast.  Good news is that head is down and in good position for a natural delivery.  So everything is going well and we may have a baby here before we know it!
