Betting update
When will Emmie arrive?
39 weeks, 2 days and no baby!
WELL, no baby yet! I look like I am as big as the Christmas tree. I don't know how much bigger my body can physically get. SO... needless to say I am ready for this ball to start rolling. Patience is key. I am doing my best. 5 days until the official due date, but we will take her when she decides to arrive. Tim is officially out of the running with the bets, but his money is still good!
Ps. New rule states if Emmie is born on a date that no one chose, she gets the pot!

Standstill
Well, the positives from my doctor's appointment are that the baby is healthy and enjoying her time in my belly. I think she has taken up residence and doesn't want to join us, atleast not yet. But, on the other hand still not dilated or effaced. The bottom line is it can happen anytime, regardless of what the doctor saw today.
SO... Tim's bet isn't looking so good right now. I will keep you posted. As for now, Emmie will continue to enjoy the chocolate milkshakes she gets regularly for just a little while longer. I guess I don't blame her!

A note from Uncle Santi- from Sept 22, 2008
Words of wisdom for Emmie:
1) Never, ever listen to your uncle Santi. I speak in tongues and half the time I don’t make sense.
2) Always remember your Irish heritage (AKA Notre Dame) it will make Daddy crazy and you can blame point 4 to it.
3) Boys are bad (till about you are 24, may be 23 but not younger).
4) Always remember to crash at uncle John’s when you get drunk.
5) Shopping is not just something that girls do, just silly girls do it (Daddy would appreciate this point). Don’t listen to Mommy to the contrary.
6) There is only one school in the country and it is not Northern Illinois (go dawgs!!!).
7) By the time you are 10 your father will claim that Commerce stadium should be name after him for his contributions to the team. His legend grows every year. Ask Jay Bird for the real story.
8) Remember to introduce all your friends to your Latin Lover cousin Mateo.
9) Although not in your blood, Argentina should be your second country (disregard paint 2 when on nationality conflict).
10) Finally, all affairs of the heart should be shared your best friend Mommy.

What the doctor said today...
In a nut shell, NOTHING. I am not dilated, effaced, etc. So, I guess Brent is safe to travel tomorrow. I tried to complain, but apparently you are not supposed to be comfortable or be able to sleep in the last few weeks of pregnancy. I guess it wasn't the first time she had heard any of these same complaints. So, I will be working out, doing jumping jacks, cat stretches, going to eat eggplant parmesean at Scalleni's- anything to help speed up this process! Wish me luck.

Only Ultrasound
20 weeks... If I only have one piece of advice, ask the doctor for a better picture than just her feet! They are cute feet, but Brent thinks they may look like Papa Kirley's feet- mulitple knuckles and long! Let's hope for cute and small~ But most of all, we are just happy thre are 10 toes all together!
Grand Opening
I am officially moving our family website. As much as I love our weebly page- http://www.brentandlindsey.weebly.com/ this website allows me to do much more. I am going to post many of the great pics I had on that site. I hope this will be just as easy for you to follow. The time is approaching quickly for Emmie to join us. I want to have the blog/website ready so I can easily add pictures and videos. She is the reason of course for the creation of this website!
