Well, I'm home...Jeff is at work...I should be doing work, but for right now I'm blogging :) Nothing new around here today except I was able to get some sleep after Jeff left for work--a couple of hours at least. It boggles my mind that I can get up to go the bathroom every hour during the night, i.e. when I should be asleep, but when I should be awake I'm able to sleep! Then I got up and made us some pancakes. I say "us" because it makes me feel like someone else is eating them too and, thus, I don't feel so bad for eating so many of them! They were really good though...

Now I'm watching Ellen...she makes giggle, especially when she dances :) Today she's filming her show from Universal Studios in Florida...I wish I was there!! Of course if I went now it would be pretty boring since I wouldn't be able to ride any of the fun rides. Jeff can't wait until we can take Izzy on her first trip to Disney World! I can't wait to take Jeff on his first trip to Disney World! We'll get Jeff and Izzy some ears :) Can't you just see them?!?

After reading the comments (and from emails and various conversations with people who didn't leave comments), I realize that Jeff and I have created mass confusion regarding my due date. So, since I have nothing better to write about and am procrastinating right now, I'll try my best to explain it in print. We went to Dr. K for the first time on August 22nd. Disclosure: If you want no more detailed information than that, stop reading NOW. If you're still reading then I refuse to feel bad about giving you too much information...although most of you know this stuff already. Usually when you're pregnant, the doctor calculates your estimated due date ("EDD") as 40 weeks from the day that you started your last period. I could not tell the doctor when that was because I had taken my pills straight through for the previous 2 months...so I did the best I could at estimating when that would have been. Dr. K then did an ultrasound, which revealed a little kidney bean (just over a centimeter in a half in length) with a heartbeat. The ultrasound calculates the gestational age of the embryo with pretty decent accuracy when done before 10 weeks--something about the rate of cell division and growth, etc. Anywho, the ultrasound put the gestational age of the baby at 8 weeks 5 days, which put me due on March 28th. The doctor took what I said, along with the ultrasound results, and rounded it off to 8 weeks--which put me due April 1st. We had two subsequently ultrasounds, both of which put the baby due either March 27th or March 28th. Now, for various reasons that no one really needs to know, Jeff and I both think that the baby was due on March 27th or 28th. So...according to the date my doc wrote on my chart the first day we saw him, I'm not officially due until tomorrow. However, everything else points to the earlier dates. I hope that clears up the confusion that I know I caused :)

Jeff and I have been trying to mentally prepare ourselves with the later due date in mind...although it was still a little rough when the 27th and 28th (along with the entire weekend) passed without incident. But, my maybe clairvoyant client did say that she thought I would have the baby yesterday or today...there are still over 12 hours left in the day...come on baby...
