It's Friday morning, doctor's appointment day. Everyone pray that I get some good news, either that I've started dilating or that they are going to induce. The back pain is getting really bad and I have had a pinched nerve near my rib cage for 4 months...time for some relief, seriously. Induction is sounding better and better everyday. UPDATE: My next appointment is Tuesday and it's very possible I will be induced that day.

Yesterday was a bad day for me. I was pretty depressed and I've realized something: the more people ask if the baby is here yet, the more depressed I get because I hear myself repeating that he's not here yet, the my back hurts, my rib cage hurts, I don't sleep at night, and that it feels like there is no end in sight. It's like a broken record that plays in my mind all day long. I tried to combat the depression by going to the mall. It kind of worked: I ended up buying 2 new pairs of shoes and two really cute sweatsuits from bebe Sport. They were on sale and so were the shoes. I also took myself for a last pregnancy massage. It was really nice and relaxing and I actually fell asleep for a little while. In the evening Chris and I watched, "The Da Vinci Code." It was really good! I started the book and never finished it. Now I'm going to try and finish it because the book is always more detailed than the movie. Plus I'm sure they will make the sequel, "Angels and Demons", and I want to see that too.

Furniture update! We just called and apparently it's at the dock here in California and there is a possibility it's going to be delivered today! Say another prayer...although the GREATEST irony would be that it's finally delivered today when I can finally set things up, and the doctor will decide he's going to admit me today for the baby delivery. Part of me wants to set up the furniture, and part of me wants this baby out! I should know by about noon exactly happens how this day is going to play out. UPDATE: After numerous phone calls to the shipping company, it looks like the furniture is scheduled for delivery on Tuesday at 8am. I'm extremely disappointed and will FREAK OUT on these people if they don't deliver it on time because I have a doctor's appointment that day and may be going to the hospital from that appointment. That leaves me no time to get the room ready...I'm very angry about that and Costco will be refunding us money for the hardship and delayed delivery. Note to everyone: don't ever use a shipping company called Bekins/Home Direct. They have poor customer service and don't deliver on time. I also say don't bother ordering furniture from Costco because they couldn't do ANYTHING to expedite the order even though they said they would.

Chris is off today so he's going to set up the bassinet and hang up mini-blinds in the nursery. He's getting more excited about the baby coming since it's right around the corner. It's cute :) He's going to be an awesome dad. I can just see him playing computer games with the baby in his lap or teaching him how to use the computer. Too cute.

I guess that's it for now. If there are any updates, they'll be posted here!
