Dr appointment
I had another Dr's appointment today and things went well. Here is what we found out: I am 2-3 cm dilated, my cervix has thinned out 80-90%, the baby is sitting really low, and he weighs about 7lbs. the doctor did say that she wouldn't be surprised if he came any day now and went over all the details on when to come in. I am having several contractions through out the day, but none have been consistent.
Pretty much we have everything done around the house that we need to bring him home. Now it is just the waiting game and both of us are trying to get as much work done as possible so we can take time to spend with the baby when he gets here.

Baby Facts
I know many inquiring minds want to know what is going on so here a few little tidbits.
~ We don't have a name for the baby yet, we are still calling him Baby Mitschke, we have come up with a short list, but haven't finalized any names yet. Hopefully we'll have a name before he comes home from the hospital. :)
~The baby will be born at the North Austin Medical Center (St. David's)
~ Things are progressing wonderfully and our due date has not changed from November 15th.

This is an email written to your Daddy.
They didn't measure me so I don't know if I am further dilated or not. She said it looks like the baby has fully dropped. She guesses he is about 6 1/2 lbs. She says loosing the plug this early is normal. the lightening pain I have been feeling is actually his skull hitting my pelvic bone, which is normal too.
They do perform the circumcision 24 hours after he is born. I am going to continue to swell, she recommends me putting my feet up at all times.

Baby update
This is the second ultrasound we had. It looks like all is well and he is progressing wonderfully. They also did take one 3D photo of him! Right now they are estimating him to be about 6 1/2 lbs. I am 1-2 cm dilated and cervix has thinned out to 50%, the baby has also begun dropping, he is about half way there. It is hard to believe he should be here 3 weeks from today!

Nursery
We have completed the nursery! We decided to go with a neutral celestial 
theme and to decorate the walls with hand drawn photos of the Peanuts that Amy's grandfather drew. Along the top of the room we painted orange, yellow and white stripes. Three walls are a soft green and the wall behind the crib is a slightly darker green. We really like the way it turned out.
Baby Mitschke
Baby Mitschke is scheduled to arrive around November 15, 2007. We are very excited to welcome this new bundle of joy into our lives! We are currently very busy trying to get everything ready for him to come home.
