No 4th of July baby

For those of you that were hoping Peyton would be born on the 4th I apologize, but she has decided that day is not appropriate for her. I think she's a little selfish and didn't want to share her BIG day with the nation. I can't say I don't blame her. So, now we're shooting for 7-7-07 for her birthday. It's supposed to be the luckiest day of the year. We'll see how lucky it is :)

My Mom and Step-Dad arrive today and have to leave on Saturday to head back to Florida. And, my best friend Rachel, who's been staying with us awaiting Peyton's arrival, has to leave tomorrow evening to head to St. Louis. Rachel and her fam won't leave if I'm dilated to at least 4 tomorrow at my doctor's appointment. She said she'd wait it out another day since I could potentially be admitted at that point. Then my Aunt Karen arrives on Monday evening. I just have this feeling that Peyton will either arrive late Saturday night or Sunday after everyone is gone. It will leave Rob, Dad and I. Which will be fine, but funny after all this build up from family.

We will keep you as posted as possible. If you do not hear from us then that means no baby has been born yet.

Until next time....

Greetings from DC. Love the blog. Am thinking about you guys. I just saw Knocked Up at the movies and thought of you guys - not because Kelly got knocked up, but because of the whole pregnancy thing. Good luck in the coming days!

Ooh, we like 07-07-07! I bet a bunch of people are going to try to have babies that day... like no one wanted to have one on 06-06-2006. (I typed out the year in case anyone would get freaked if I wrote it any other way.) If you pass I will aim for 7-11 since that's our anniversary.

I am obsessed with checking to see if something is going on. If all your peeps can't handle the wait, its crazy how you do so well :)

And Lexie has 5 bathing suits, but only 4 she will usually wear (close to your predicted 800 million). A total FL girl :) But think of it this way, do you like the feeling of putting on a wet suit? So most days we swim, we require 2 suits... of course I don't even have 1 that I feel fits well. The kids get EVERYTHING...
