Claire is absolutely adorable and it has been so much fun to see the Chesemore home invaded by pink and frills. Meanwhile the Bradshaw fam is eagerly awaiting the arrival of blue and dirt.
My official due date is November 21st which is the Sunday before Thanksgiving. What could be more perfect? I’m torn between a desire to go really early or really late. I’m hoping to avoid a Thanksgiving baby. I really want to be able to fully concentrate on my turkey dinner and from what I’ve experienced of our hospital cafeteria, well, let’s just say I’d like to be home for Thanksgiving.
At my appointment last week I was 2cm and 80% effaced. But that doesn’t really mean much in my case. MJ was 10 days late and I had progressed even more than that. I hold those stats really loosely and am preparing myself for another late delivery.
We have finally given this boy a name after months of calling him “baby brother.” Drum roll please…Michael Hudson Bradshaw! Michael cuz mommy wanted him to have the same name as daddy and Hudson just cuz we like it. We will call him Hudson. MJ has dubbed him “Pudson.”
We’ll be sure to let you know when Hudson decides to make his appearance. Thank you so much for all of your prayers and encouragement for Kristin and me during this exciting time.
