39 weeks

Very little progress was made in the last week - I'm just 1 cm dilated.  Dr. Lehnert did say that if she drops too much lower she is just going to drop right out!  We set a date to induce - so the latest date I will "go into" labor is June 21st.  I found out today that they changed my due date as well - technically Dr. Lehnert has been going by the last ultrasound date of June 14th (only 2 days earlier but it still means I'm less than a week away from when they expect her to arrive).  So my induction date is a week after I'm due - I hope it doesn't come to that.  Mom and Olivia are arriving in Springfield on Saturday (the 12th) and Olivia's return flight is the 19th, so we hope this little girl arrives before the induction date so Olivia can see her before she goes back to Florida.  
Things are coming along still.  The car seat base is installed in my car, bags are mostly packed and I am ready!  This little girl is ready as well I think.  She is pushing so hard on my stomach it is very painful at times.  Maybe we'll be surprised and she arrive right on her due date!  I am telling myself she isn't going to come on the weekend b/c I would prefer to have Dr. Lehnert deliver this time around and if she comes on the weekend, I get whoever is on call.  Which could be ok, I just know that Dr. Lehnert knows me and what we've talked about.  I don't do the whole birth plan thing.  
I still need to take some pictures of the almost finished nursery to put up, I promise that will happen at some point. 
Things at home are going pretty good as well.  AJ is officially off for the summer so Preston gets to stay home all day with Daddy.  This past weekend we got the new playset!  Preston loves it already.  AJ and Mark spent a lot of time this weekend putting it together - but it was definitely worth it!  Before even getting started with construction AJ and I had to go through and inventory everything b/c nothing was labeled!  There were a lot of pieces of wood to identify.  
So, I bragged a lot about Preston always being in bed when he got tired even if he got up and played for a while.  Lately he has been on the floor, usually with his pillows but still on the floor.  Not sure what changed but I find him on the floor a lot.
We'll keep you posted if anything happens in the next week!
