WHAT!!! THE BABY COULD COME NOW???

Ok, so here's an update on us. Nikita was a tomato yesterday in the pre-school play. It was one of the most wonderful things I've ever seen. He was so funny and said his lines loudly without mistakes. We were so proud of him. We will add video ASAP.
We received some interesting news yesterday. We went to the doctor for a normal weekly check-up, and after touching my stomach she said that I was very far along and should expect the baby within a week. (WHAT???) Then she did a...let's say more uncomfortable exam and said that she was sure that this week was the week. (WHAT???) Ok, so I know that most women want their babies early. They want to be done with being pregnant, and they want to meet their little one. Well, those things are true about me. I would love to walk without an occasional leg or rear cramp, to sleep on my stomach if I want, and to fit into my winter coat. :) And, I do want to meet our baby. However, over the past week or so, I've thought to myself, I really like sleeping through the night, and I feel like I've got this pregnancy thing down. Basically, I thought, it might not be so bad to go a little late. I mean, the baby is going to be gigantic no matter what. (Besides 2 people, all the babies on both sides were over 8 lbs. and my dad was 11lbs 10oz!!!) So, I guess, maybe God doesn't want me to be on tv with a 15 lb baby and is going to have me go early, but I was getting used to the idea of another 3 -5 weeks of sleeping and relaxing.
Well, maybe the doctor's wrong. It wouldn't be the first time. But, to be honest, I have been feeling contractions and other signs that it might be soon. We'll just have to see. We'll keep you all updated as things happen.
