Well, we have an induction scheduled for Thursday. So, unless baby decides to make his appearance before then we should have a baby Thursday night. Everything seems to be going well with baby, he's just running out of room!
I'm very ready to not be pregnant anymore, especially since I found out last week that I have gallstones. I think I've had them for a while but now that the baby is pressing on everything my gallbladder is easily irritated. I've had 4 gallbladder attacks so far that last 4-6 hours and are ridiculously painful. I'm hoping that once baby comes and there isn't so much weight on all my other organs that my gallbladder won't be such an issue and I won't have to be so careful about what I eat. Right now I'm pretty much eating salads and baked potatoes. We will meet with a general surgeon a few weeks after the baby is born to decide if I need to get it out right away or if we can wait a little while so that Haydn can get a little older before I have to go through surgery. I've put Jeff & Elyse on update duty so they should be posting updates and pictures this week of baby Priour! We can't wait to meet him... we're still only mostly sure that he is a boy. We only had it confirmed once in Iraq and ever since then they've never been able to see anything. Soooo...I guess we'll find out soon enough! Thanks for all of your prayers, we really appreciate it.

It is a joy to share life with friends who have become more like family and even cooler to have community all around the world! I hope this will help us stay connected and be a bridge for all of the 'couch talks' that I miss having with my community everywhere.

Glad the end is near! I actually know someone else who's inducing on Thursday as well with their first. I look forward to the updates and meeting the wee one (though I might not get to read them until I get back from Turkey!). Praying for all 3 of you!
Oh, and they're having their little boy in Houston as well...small world!
We hope everything goes smoothly! Looking forward to seeing his sweet face!
I love you and can't wait to meet him:) We are praying for your health and a smooth delivery.
Hi! You don't know me but I am Cody's siter, Noella. I was interested to see if you had your baby yet and got to your site through Team Fish. Sorry to hear about your gallstones. I too had attacks, but only after the birth of our first child. I had surgery 8 weeks after delivery. I'll be praying the attacks subside with the pressure soon to be gone, but would so do the surgery again in a heartbeat just to not endure the attacks. God bless you and your new family!
