We had another checkup this morning and everything is looking great! I'll refrain from including the medical details that I'm too shy to post and I'm sure you'd rather not read :), but it's clear that my body is preparing for Baby's departure. He's extremely low which is great news. He knows where the exit door is, that's for sure! So, d-day could be tomorrow or still two weeks away. I'll just have to try to be patient and wait until he decides it's time to join our world :). I'm really hoping that the low pressure system accompanying a cold front arriving on Sunday will help him make up his mind! Today, Renee confirmed that low pressure systems definitely result in an increased number of patients in L&D at the hospital!

Since last week, my weight is the same (surprising with all these Christmas cookies I've been eating!) and the baby bump measured 37cm again. My sugar levels were back to normal this week after being a little high last week.

We scheduled another appointment for next Friday. Baby will be 2 days overdue then if he still hasn't joined us. At that point, an ultrasound will determine if Baby is doing well enough to stay put. If he's still not here by the time I'm 42 weeks (after Christmas), I'll be induced. I certainly hope he doesn't wait that long and have a feeling he won't.

In case anyone was wondering, we still don't have a name picked out. We think we have it narrowed down to two and will wait to decide him after we see him :). We're not telling anyone until he's here, though. The middle name is pretty certain and comes from my family so he'll have "Highsmith" from his dad's family, a middle name from his mom's, and a first name that's all his own!

And, finally, we regret to inform you that Hurricane Krislis has devastated Bricktopia. You can see all of the hurricane preparation and aftermath photos on Flickr. All this really means is that we have company arriving very soon now and needed to dismantle our LEGO town which was kept on the guest bed in the den!
