Progress

Had an emotional visit with Dr. Lacy today. With Franky leaving on Monday for work we decided it's time we finally get to meet Baby Lucas! He's been slow cooking long enough! We will be inducing labor sometime Thursday in hopes he will arrive soon after. Excited and anxious to meet our little dude! Yoda was trying out the Boppy today to make sure it's just right for his arrival.

Anticipation

39 weeks into the pregnancy and we're eagerly awaiting the birth of Baby Lucas. Contractions are regular and we've tried the laundry list of "old wives tales" dispelling myth after myth on how to induce labor. His actual due date isn't until April 29th but geez...come out already! We're ALL excited to meet you!
