Happy due date to me...

Well, today is the big day! But not so big after all. We went to church, ran some errands, and so on...no baby yet! He's moving around a lot and clearly quite happy where he is for the time being. Perhaps tomorrow being Labor Day will get him going!

Yesterday we decided to do something fun...a friend gave us a gift of money to go out and have a date together before baby comes. It was a beautiful day, so we went canoeing on the Ipswich River. We saw turtles, geese, an egret, and some other funny bird that we don't know the name of! The turtles are our favorites but they are too quick to get pictures of.



This would be a beautiful place to go in a few weeks when all the leaves are changing but we will be a little busy by then!

I had my last day at work on Thursday and am now on maternity leave, so hopefully the little guy doesn't wait too much longer to make his big debut. Although at this point, every day he waits is one more day to get some sleep, so I'm trying to look on the bright side!

Hey Melinda...I'm thinking of you and praying for you! He'll be here any day now! Sleep as much as possible! ;-)

God Bless,
