25 Days to go

until the due Date!!! It is so close and I feel like he could come anytime. I thought I would just share about how things have been going. I have had a traveling husband on the road allot lately and we just got through a rough week, he went to 3 different places in one week so we had to say goodbye 3 different times. Isaac has been battling a cold for a week now and it seems to have gotten worse. Last night he had a fever and today he was not himself...crying, wanting to be held and not eating. It has become almost impossible to take his temperature. If he even just sees it he starts crying and wiggle and squirms the whole time so I don't know how accurate the temps I have been getting are. I feel so bad, like he thinks I am trying to hurt him or something.
We gave him some tylenol tonight and he was ready for bed. Hopefully tomorrow he will feel better. On a good note, I can officially have this baby anytime now because Andy is pretty much done traveling until end of Feb. so I have him at least nearby! Whew! Right now Andy's mom and dad are planning on coming out Jan. 27th to help out and hopefully I will go into labor while they are here and they can stay with Isaac while we are in the hospital. It is so hard to plan, but I keep thinking this little guy will come early. My mom will then be flying out on Feb. 5th and staying for 9 days. If for some reason I would go into labor before that I have a few different friends who said they would take Isaac for us. So that is the plan so far. I am hoping to still try for a vaginal birth. I think this baby is head down and as long as he is my doctor will let me go for a vbac. I am trying not to think about it too much and whatever happens will be fine :) I go to the doctor this Wednesday for my first internal so I will know for sure the position of the baby and if I have made any progress which I am excited to find out.
