Still 5

We went to the doctors today optimistic. Our bags were packed and ready and the car seat installed. Then we heard, "5 cm." No change and therefore no labor. I'll be honest, we were both sad. Next visit is scheduled for Monday, but Adam is hoping for a Birthday present on Saturday. For now we wait more. As my one friend George put it, "Keep incubating." Maybe the baby will end up big after all.

Also, on the 16th Adam practiced changing a diaper on one of my old dolls. I think he will be quite the pro (although he still claims that when I am gone he will just take baby over the Grandma and Grandpa Burla's to be changed). We both took turns trying to figure out the swaddling folds. I need to watch the video again. Adam is having a difficult time leaving me to work- he keeps coming home between stops and actually answers his phone! He is equally excited to welcome baby.
