At about 7 pm Tuesday night Jessi began the medicine to induce labor. Wednesday morning at 7 am Dr Placek came in to break her water and then the contractions started (picture 1).
Jessi and Dustin were married in 2006. Noah arrived in March of 2009 and Carter came in May of 2011. You can imagine all the calamity that might ensue on a house with two young boys.

Quick Update
The doctor said we are ready to go at anytime. So if you are a praying person, you can help us pray for sometime this weekend or early next week. Mom and Dad are READY!!!
Dad keeps talking to the little one, telling him its time to come out, but he doesn't seem to listen to his father. Wonder where he gets that!! :)
We've been going on walks about everyday and moms been doing some exercise to try and help move things along. Only time will tell.
Next appointment is on Tuesday. Hopefully we will know more by then, or baby will already be here!! Til then, take care everyone and we'll keep you all updated on the latest.

Getting Closer
Thursday, March 12th we had our last appointment. The ultrasound picture shows the baby's head. You can see the face better from farther away, but it shows two eyes, the nose, and the mouth open in a yawn, plus the chubby cheeks. The baby did not want to cooperate and lay still for a good picture, so this is the only one we got.
We were able to see all the organs and that they were all functioning properly. The little stomach was even moving in and out in 'practice breaths.' So we know that the little one knows he is to breathe when he comes out.
We are beginning to dialate and efface, so we are progressing well. Our next appointment is Thursday, March 19th.

Here are some pictures from the Baby Shower last week. I thought it was a GREAT turn out. We can't thank everyone enough for all the gifts we received. We are still in the process of getting everything organized and put away.
Going through all the gifts again, we are getting even more excited for the new one to get here. Then we can actually use all the stuff.
The hospital bag is packed and the car seat is in the car, not the truck. Dad has to clean out and organize his tools before that will happen.
We go to the doctor again this Thursday for another ultrasound to see the size and position of the baby. So we will try to give you another blog Thursday or Friday to see if the little one is going to be as big as everyone claims it will.
