The end is near!

Kris and I had our doctor's appt today, and the end is in sight! He did do some manual manipulation to try and speed things along, but if that doesn't work, we will be headed to the hospital at 0430 in the morning on Thursday to be induced. I really wasn't to keen on the idea at first, the thought of needing drugs didn't really thrill me, but then again, the idea of being able to meet my baby girl, and not be pregnant anymore, sounded awfully nice. So, nothing as of yet, but I darned well know for sure she's coming on Thursday! Hooray!

We went out to dinner tonight with some friends from Mesquite (a little town an hour north of Vegas). We went to this place called Bahama Breeze, one of my personal favorites, and let me tell you why. While the island food sure is tasty and delicious, I really only go for his chocolate upside-down pineapple cake they have there. It is sooo stinkin good. This moist little round cake with a pineapple on top that has this liquidy chocolate center. The whole thing is drizzled with caramel sauce and grenadine and topped with a cherry and whipped cream. To-die-for delicious. I almost consider tonight a form of a "Last Supper" for us. Our last meal out with just friends as a child-less couple. Kind of sad when you think about it. No worries, I have to tell myself. Thousands of women (well, couples really) go through this transistion, and they come out OK, so I have to think that Kris and I will make it through. At least until the next kid right?

Kris's mother and sister and brother in law are coming down in an hour or so. I'm excited. It's nice to have company, and then the help after little girl makes an appearance. Ahh well. There will be much to write about very soon, keep checking the blog!
