I'm starting to like the names...

Jacob

Kaleb

and still ... Kai


I feel like Kaleb would be a good in between to mix the girls name... Jayden Kaleb and Keira....?
I haven't run them by Chris yet.... just thinking out loud... through my fingers... on my computer... on the blog....

16 days and counting...

i feel like i'm seriously in a funk after this monday's events at the Dr,'s office and the hospital... I'm feeling weird and depressed... I was ready for the baby, and now i'm not again... I'm tired, exhausted actually... but I can't sleep... 2 or 3 hours a night....?
I desperately miss Chris when he's gone all day long (12 hours usually) and then i'm so mad when he's finally home that i'm no fun for any one.

How do I get out of this funk?

I think tonight i'm going to go run around the big circle on campus (okay... ya, how does a 8 1/2 month prego run... well, it will last about 10 seconds, then i'll walk...) but lets just say i'm going to go run to get some endorphins and get this kid to drop a little... we'll see what happens. Any of you who care to help can send your best "going into labor" - vibes my way... they would be greatly appreciated...

or... going into labor advice and tricks... like eat spicy food, and drink rootbeer... castor oil (yuck...) and what else..?

I like Kai the best. Then Kaleb, but I'm not a huge fan of Jacob. I think just because it's too common. I'm totally in that same funk. I have been laying around every minute that I can feeling sorry for myself and totally neglecting my kids and house. I think the only way out is to have the stinkin kid. Good luck, and I'm sending you vibes!!!!

a whole pineapple is the word on the street here & deep knee lunges. i don't believe any of it., but it gives you something to do! :) good luck! & it's good that Chris has work- right? sad he's gone but, kinda the way life works w/ the hunter gatherer men taking care of their fam.

Dont try anything to get the baby out faster, usually doesnt work, just makes you frustrated! And let me tell you life is eaiser being pregnat with the third than the few weeks after he is born, so enjoy your time being pregnant! You look great

I think Jacob is cute, but it's also the #1 baby name for like the last 10 years in a row... too popular for me. Kaleb is cute, but I think you should go with an L name so you'd have a J, a K and an L :) Maybe Lucas or Liam or something similar. But then I also like Kai and I know you've always liked that name. Boys are way harder to name than girls. We have a few names on our girl list, but zero names on our boy list. Such a hard decision. You'll think of something cute though - even if it's a few days after he's born!

My vote is Kai, for obvious reasons. :) Had that third baby been a boy he wouldn't have been named Kaisa!

I don't know how I missed the last week of updates from you, but I did, and WHOA! what a crazy bunch of baby stuff.

Sorry you aren't going to be induced, but I guess it's better that way, even though it's going to feel like FOREVER, huh?

Good luck!!

I know a great way to go into labor! Accidently let the wind catch the open car door and have it hit you in the stomach! It worked for me! I've also heard that a little "mommy-daddy time" could move things along!
