I have a Flickr account with 44 pictures of Jordan’s first day. I have more pictures… But the ones on this website are nice enough for quality picture printing so my family members can have access. I’ll post more soon… You may have to sign up to become a Flickr account member: http://www.flickr.com/photos/reeveskids/ I’m happy…

I picked up a cough the day all of the family got into town… Tonight, the nose started running along with the sneezes. Now I’m afraid I’m going to go into labor and get the baby sick. How stinky is that. I’m trying so dang hard to bring Jordan into the world. I walked around…

I can’t tell you how nomatter where I go, if I see someone, they have to ask me why I’m still pregnant. The due date is January 7th. I’m obviously fully cooked. Heck, even people are instant messaging me to check to see if I’m still pregnant. That’s why my status is now: “Yes. I’m…

I’m walking two miles a day and I’m still not seeing any constant improvement of these contractions. I’m so darn ready to be done. It’s hard to not want to be done.I’m also trying hard to not obsess. But any time the contractions start up again and feel productive, I start getting hopeful and ready.…

I’m planning on doing a lot of walking in the next week or so. Yesterday’s progressive contractions didn’t do much at all. I’m still 50% effaced and 1 cm dilated. That’s not a major change. I dilated a little more, but that’s it. So I’m going to start walking a lot. Tomorrow morning after breakfast,…

I’ve had contractions all day… Enough to bother me, but not enough to mean much. We had a “faculty retreat” at the King Kong movie and that kept me a little tense and Jordan obviously scared of King Kong’s roar. But no labor. So Randy, Cameron and I walked about the mall this evening to…

Jordan is a big girl. She is so heavy! I’m carrying her so low, that it’s amazing to think just how big she’ll be when she gets here. I pray she’ll be early just so the labor part isn’t too impossible. But because I feel so prepared and ready, I have a gut feeling I’m…

Time is ticking… And it seems like Jordan just drops lower and lower. But what I think is going on is she’s just getting bigger and heavier by the day. This will not be a little girl. She will be big… And hopefully very healthy. I’m having a hard time walking most of the time.…

For those regular visitors who keep begging for a picture… Here you go. This is my belly with Cameron posing as a super hero. I figure I should post it before I give birth. I am an imposing size… And I assume that means Jordan will be quite big as well.
