Big News!!!

So, I went to the doctors yesterday and I am no more dilated then last week... Still at a one. The contractions have even slowed a bit and I have not been having as many. Maybe that has to do with the anxiousness of knowing it is getting so close causing that! Who knows, maybe she is just going to be stubborn like me. But, good news the doctor decided that he will induce me. We will be checking into the hospital on Monday night at 7:00pm. They start by giving me something to soften the cervix and then later that night they will break my water. Then in the morning on Tuesday they will give me pitocin. It's a drug that gets the contractions started. I had to have it with Trais too since the contractions tried to stop half way though... So, we will be having her on Tuesday at some point! Hopefully early in the day not the end. My mother-in-law April flies in tomorrow night and then my parents fly in on Monday night, so it works out perfect to have her on Tuesday. Donny also has a huge test on Monday so at least he will be able to get through that before we go into the hospital... I can't wait! Trais is very excited for me to not be pregnant anymore! He has no idea what is really coming!!!

Well thats the biggest news that I have for you. Like I said before I am really slowing down. If fact it seems like it takes all that I have in me to make dinner or to go grocery shopping! Trais has been my amazing little helper boy! He comes and pats my shoulders and asks me if I need anything. He is such a sweet kid. These last few weeks have been great getting to spend so much time with him. Never in his life have I been able to spend this much time with him. I can tell you though he is probably very ready to go back to school and start making some 'real' friends.

Like I said earlier Donny has a big test coming up on Monday for Academy so he has been studying every night for hours. I think he is going to do great, but he of course is worried that he needs to study more! He gets to get out of the classroom the following week though (Not next week, but the week after that)! We got his new schedule for when he rides with his training officer and he will be working two 24 hour shifts! I am so happy that he will be home with me and the kids for 5 days a week!!!! It will only be that way for 4 weeks, but I couldn't be any happier about that!!!

Anyways, I am going to go lay back down for a nap now, so I will write later!
Love ya all!!!

This is good news! I know Trais has no idea what he is getting himself into! Hopefully he does better that I think Trysten would. Just having Khylee stay the night is exhausting. He makes a 101 rules about why she can't do things cause she is 4 and he is 5. Then he tattles on her for every little thing she does.
