...and another week has come and gone

It's Monday again and that means another doctor appointment.  Last week on Thursday and Friday I was experiencing a lot of discomfort - back ache, pressure, etc. Saturday I felt great again. Yesterday I felt pretty good with occasional contractions. With all this taking place I keep hoping things would pick up and start happening, but no not yet. So here we are at another appointment. Since we have reached one of the first edds they may begin doing a stress test to see if all's still well with the baby. The waiting is crazy, but I know the end will come. She can't stay in there forever! I'm also not sure if she's turned yet. I believe she's done quite a bit of growing in the last week and so it's become more difficult to figure out how she's laying. I do have a pretty good idea that she is still transverse.
In other news we've been keeping the kids pretty busy this past week. We took them to the Mall of America on Tuesday and they had so much fun!  After looking around in Legoland they were able to go on a few rides. It happened to be Toddler Tuesday so the points for the rides were half price for them. On Friday we took them to the fair to see the animals. Saturday we went to a birthday party for their cousin Nolan. They had so much fun and slept soundly that night.
Don preached last night since it was the fifth Sunday of the month. We had a Mexican Fiesta fellowship afterwards. I believe Kathy is like her mom and loves tacos. She ate two and wanted a third.
Wednesday is already the first of August and next Monday the movers come. It won't be long and we'll be on our way to Scotland!

So, when's the due date?

After my ultrasound I decided to check my calendar to see if my dates were correct since the ultrasound estimated due date(edd) was off by 3 weeks. I did find that my dates were off by a week. This moves my new edd to the very end of July/beginning of August. Still, from the two ultrasounds I have two other dates that are more toward the middle of August. So, in all this confusion of edds, I have decided that when she is ready she will come. Also, she is still in the wrong position which is transverse right now. She does move around a lot, so I know she can do it if only she would decide to.  I am certainly ready for Audrey to join us and hope it won't be too much longer. The waiting continues...

Getting closer

We are down to the last!  I have about 2 weeks left, more or less and I'm hoping it's less!!  I have had my first appointment and so far things seem to be against me having a successful vbac, again. With 2 weeks left, Audrey is not in the right position yet. I have an ultrasound today to check things out and see where she is, but I feel she is still not where she should be. I know with God all things are possible and I'm praying for a last minute miracle. It'll be fun to get to see her inside once more before she's born. I'm hoping we'll see her in person in the next week!
As far as housing in Scotland, as I mentioned previously we did not get the house we were looking at, but another one became available. It is 5 miles from Tain. It is much bigger than the first with lots of storage, a two car garage, patio, fenced-in yard and....a dishwasher!!!!  We'll see what happens:)
Today it is raining.  I'm hoping this cools things down really nicely. Being pregnant during the summer is not the most pleasant thing. Now towards the end I have a hard time getting comfortable at night anyways ad then to be really warm on top of that makes for some lost sleep. Only a little while left though!
With the move to Scotland fast approaching I'll have to think of a new name for this blog. We won't be traveling anymore so the name won't be very fitting. Hmm...
