Sometime on November 25th-- the Tuesday before Thanksgiving-- is when Lincoln will be making his arrival. My Dr. is going to be out of town for Thanksgiving and the entire following weekend, so he is going to induce me 8 days early and let me be home in time for Thanksgiving. Stephen said he will even cook Thanksgiving dinner-- although he keeps joking that it will be frozen pizza. :)
It is SO nice to have a set date and be able to count down. The kids are really excited-- 3 more Sundays doesn't sound like very much and it is something even Jeanisha can relate to. I'm looking forward to having a beautiful new baby instead of a big awkward belly. :) I'm bigger with this pregnancy than I have been with any of the other kids, so I feel huge. This is the first time I couldn't sleep on my stomach all the way up to delivery. He's also been positioned much lower making it painful to walk and bend and do all the things you have to do taking care of 4 kids and a house. Stephen has been great-- and for the most part, the kids have too, but I will be very happy to be able to move and get things done again.

Congratulations! It's so nice to "countdown". Both my babies were late and it drove me NUTS!!!
That is very exciting. Being early is so much better than coming late. Good luck with everything and enjoy that thanksgiving pizza!
Congrats! We're looking at much sooner (keep watching the blog).
I wish we could compare bellies. Sixth pregnancy vs. third with twins.... I wonder.
I hope the rest of your pregnancy goes smoothly.
Thats really exciting! I can't wait to see him. Are you guys coming down for Christmas? With a 1 month old, I wasn't sure.... You slept on your belly with your other babies?? Wow! Gary is paranoid and every time he wakes up and I'm on my back he trys to subtly push me to my side. :) We're both really excited for Lincoln!
I'm so excited for your family! I was induced with my last and it was a relief to have a date and know that I wouldn't be going over! I hope everything goes very smoothly.
Yeah!! I have never gone into labor. I have always been induced. It is so nice to have your bags packed and just go to the hospital fully knowing they can't send you home. I'm expecting my number five to be an induction as well. I guess we'll see. Congrats!!!!
How excited can't wait to see the new baby. I am sure the kids are getting really excited.
Awesome!! I am so happy for you. If you need anything you better call me. I am just down the hill. Love ya! XOXOXO
How exciting! I can't wait to see pictures of your sweet little man!

I love being induced-my last 3 were all inductions. I have had good experiences with being induced, it is very calming and makes me feel more in control and prepared. I wish you the same peaceful and enjoyable birthing experience as you welcome baby Lincoln into the world. What a great name by the way!
