Due date

Today is my due date. Mommy thinks that I will be fasionably late though. Yesterday Mommy had a doctors appointment. Her blood pressure was a little high, so they told her that she has to stay home with me and no more work as of yesterday afternoon. So she saw a few patients yesterday morning, had lunch, and then had to go back to the doctors for a test called a non-stress test. They hooked Mommy's belly up to monitors. One of them monitored my heartrate. Then they gave Mommy a button to push everytime she felt me move. I didn't like the monitor and tried to kick it and wiggle so that they would take it off. Everything looked perfect with the test. The purpose of the test is to make sure that my heartrate goes up when I move around, just like when you exercise. My resting heartrate was in the 140s, when I move it went up to the 160s.
Mommy and Daddy have been busy getting things ready for me in the house. Because Mommy is taking it easy Daddy has been working very hard to help Mommy. Over the last two days he has pretty much got us all caught up on laundry, and has been doing some cleaning too. Of course he has also been taking care of Mommy and I too. I love my Daddy so much. Hopefully we will have another blog entry really soon that annouces my arrival.
Love always,
Gideon
