We have to put the house up for sale in the spring so we have a few months to finish. We are, however, ready for the baby to arrive save for packing my hospital bag and stocking my freezer with casseroles. I'll be finishing all those final tasks this week. Bella is getting excited with all the new baby stuff in the house. LOL!

Did you agree on a name yet??

You think the baby will come early? Any dialation yet? I think it's so cool we'll have daughters only 6 months apart.

We have the middle name, but still no first name. We have a list and when she's born, we'll decide which fits better.

Went to the doc today and I'm 50% effaced and dilated almost to 2. He said she could come pretty much any day, especially since I went from 0-9 dilation in a day with Annabelle. It's just a waiting game right now. I've been having some pretty severe contractions but they aren't getting close just yet. I have a weird feeling she'll come in the next 7-10 days. I could be wrong, since you can never predict this stuff. With Annabelle, the doc told me to come back in 11 days to be induced because it didn't look like it would be any time soon. I went into labor the next day! I've got my fingers crossed!!

Thanks all for the compliaments re May. She is the joy of my life. Just watching her grow and develope everyday amazes me sometimes. We just got back from a walk to buy a Sunday paper at the pharmacy. I could have it delivered, but this gives me a push and shove to go for a walk every Sunday..lol. Plus it saves me 50cents a week...lol. It's about 35min roundtrip--not a huge walk, but it is better than nothing.

I am attempting to make a puff pastry dough from scratch. It is very time consuming. I did not realize how intricate it is. And with a lb of butter in it, oh so very diet-friendly...hahaha I plan to make sausage rolls for our neighbors who are moving away--so I won't be consuming much of it.

I'm pleased that the weighing every day has made some sort of difference. Even those slight ones can add up.

Walking on a Sunday is a good move. Those little bits of activity can make the biggest difference both now while trying to lose weight and for keeping up the lifestyle in maintenance.

I have never tried to make puff pastry - having always resorted to buying the blocks of ready made stuff. I wouldnt dare do it now though. I wouldnt be able to trust myself to follow through and actually give them away. I think that I would devour the lot and then be stuck with what to give the neighbours...

Well, haven't lost anymore weight, but haven't gained any either so that's good, at least..lol

Thought I'd share some more pics of May.

Looking back - how many times have we gained weight and given ourselves a bigger problem to deal with?... When you think about it that way - although standing still is not a big step forward in the master plan - it is pretty good in times of stress. I know that life is pretty stressful for you these days - so you should allow yourself to feel an achievement out of the "not gaining" situation.

As always - May is very very sweet.

I am sure that she will have been the centre of attention at your school reunion...
