Insanity makes a comeback

That pretty much sums up my weekend. Thursday I had another dr appt, (on the 21st I had another ultrasound to double check my amniotic fluid levels-they've been a bit low, and by Thursday my doctor hadn't recieved the results), they decided that baby girl should come next (this) Friday morning. The hospital scheduled us for 5 am (ugh!).
At 3 pm we got a call from our realitor saying we could have the keys, everything was done and recorded. Yeah!! Now reality sets in, and we realize that we are really moving just one week before I am going to have a baby. And Eric told me that he might have to work Saturday, and Sunday too-the govenor wants the budget done NOW. After getting home around 10:30-ish, Eric told me that he didn't have to go in, but needed to be available by phone. Okay, I can handle that.
Saturday, was just insane. Eric's sister and I headed over to clean the house while Eric and others packed the truck. Some things went wrong, some things went well. It was not a pleasant experience for any of us, lots and lots of work.
We have slowly been getting things put together. I never want to move pregnant again, ever. I am usually able to get things unpacked and put together within a week, that is so not happening this time.
Today, I took Aidan to school and then went back to the rental house to gather more of the loose stuff together (we're only 6 miles away). I had a message from my doctor's office (we don't have our phone transfered over yet, that will be Friday, so I also have to check our phone when I drop off and pick up Aidan), it turns out that after they got the AFI numbers, they were really not okay with what they saw. I had to go in again today for a quick ultrasound to determine whether or not baby needed to come tomorrow instead of Friday. Thankfully, I was stable, no change in the fluid levels, and baby is still moving okay. My doctor decided that she was okay with baby coming on Friday, but absolutly no later. Like I needed that extra stress today. But all is okay, and after some cookies and ice cream, I feel better.

I love you! I'm sorry for all the extra concern, but so glad that it'll sift out alright. I love the restorative effects of cookies and ice cream...
