Another Week

It's been another week, Aiden is doing well and being very patient with me and my crazy life. It seems like I've been rushing around non-stop doing this and that, trying to get things ready and just get all of life's day to day tasks accomplished. I just hope he remains to be patient when he comes.
According to my last doctors appointment everything is going well. They've made me start doing kick counts everyday, which he has no problem with moving ten times in an hour =D so basically I just keep going back every week. The doctor did have a little trouble finding his heart beat, but before you get worried it was partially because he was rolling around trying to get away from the pressure she was putting on him, and because she seemed like she was struggling that day. He has a very strong heartbeat and is growing right on schedule.
My bags are packed and everyone is just holding their breath now until I say it's go time. I really think we should start a baby pool like Zach did in Saved By the Bell. I think we could generate a lot of money. Everyone has their predictions, but only little Aiden knows when he's ready to make his appearance. Personally I'm content with his timing, unless he takes too long that is =D I'm just ready for my bundle of joy to be in my arms and to start our life as a team.
My next appointment is Tuesday the 5th. I will let everyone know how things turn out. Until then, I'll just enjoy my braxton hicks and crunching ice.

The Beginning

Hi everyone,
This is my attempt to keep everyone in the loop in regard to my life. Since Aiden's almost here I figured that starting now would be a smart idea because we all know that I won't have the energy to start it once he gets here.

Today I go to the doctor to start the run of weekly appointments. He's due in four more weeks, and I can't wait. He's always moving and kicking. I like to call it dancing. I think he's getting more and more aggravated with me since his dance floor seems to be more and more crowded by the day.

This past weekend Aiden completed his first 5k run/walk. Of course we walked, but he did really well despite the 90 something degree weather. I think this will be something that we continue to do in the future. I hope he enjoys walking with me and eventually walking himself and if his grandpa has anything to do with it he'll be running it before he's five.
