Just when I thought being an 8 1/2 months pregnant lady was about as bad as it could get-it got worse. I am now an 8 1/2 months pregnant lady hobbling around on crutches! Oh and it is quite a funny sight! I was walking out to the car Monday morning to go to school and I slipped on the ice. I sprained a major tendon in my foot. So just to add to my awkwardness and uncomfortableness I have crutches and a boot in addition to my very large belly. I guess I have been humbled-I feel like I should have never complained about anything before this incident! But not to worry-I am in good hands. Cole is doing a master job of taking care of me and helping me with everything I could possibly need-not to mention his own load of school work.
The latest on the baby-head is down and I am about 3cm dilated already! The doctor said she could almost guarantee a 2007 baby and that it really would not surprise her if he came any time now! My goal is to make it till the 19th. That is my last real teaching day before our break starts and about the time Cole will finish finals.
It has been a very busy month for Cole and I-sub plans for all of January, getting baby stuff ready, finals, grad school applications, and then classes and teaching all day! We have barely even thought about Christmas coming! But we are getting through it and look forward to our upcoming son! (We are so curious about his hair color! Kind of hoping he does not get his mother's genes!)

Oh my goodness hun! I can't believe you have crutches! I hope it gets better before the baby comes! Wow, you are so close!! Yea! Good luck with the labor and delivery.... and the foot! :>
Jenna! Oh no! I am so sorry about the crutches! Hang in there, you are almost done! I can't believe you are dilated to a 3 - that is so much already! I was a 4 when I was admitted into the hospital. I'll be watching the blog!
I am so sorry about your foot! That is the last thing that an 8 1/2 month pregnant lady needs!!! I hope it heals quickly!!! The last couple of weeks of pregnancy go by so SLOWLY, but it will be over soon! YEAH!! I am so excited for you! p.s. I LOVE your hair color!!!
You are going to have your baby soon! I can't wait to see pictures of him (and hear the mystery name)!
I hope all goes well for you, and that your foot gets to feeling better soon! Good luck with having that baby! Can't wait to hear more!
I can't believe that! At least it will be a great story to tell, right? I hope you've taken some pictures! And I assume you've made it to the end of school? Is it time to start curb walking now? (Oh, that might be a little difficult with crutches!)
