THUNDERCATS ARE GO!

I'll be headed to hospital at 6:45 for my scheduled induction. Hopefully my cervix will respond favorably to gel or pills or drips or whatever is on tap for me tonight and I'll soon be snuggling my new baby girl.

I'll post soon as I can!

Perfection is being able to look your friends in the eye and know you did everything you could not to let them down.

Saturday was Homecoming for the Plymouth Canton Steelers. I am happy to say that I was able to watch my boys play in their final game of the season. The 6 hours on the bleachers was a little rough, but I made it through. The games were excellent! Calvin's team scored 6 or 7 touchdowns to the opposition's 1 touchdown. They don't keep score at his level. Calvin played almost the whole game and even got to run the ball for a gain of 3 yards. Christopher's team lost by four points but they played so hard and it was a very exciting game to watch. The entire stands were on their feet. Poor Christopher was pacing and jumping and talking to himself on the sidelines. I was really proud of the way the boys gave their all and tried so hard. It was a fun day for all of us! Thank you to all the family and friends who came out to support them and to Alicia for keeping Cameron and Spencer for me. What a favor!!

Random Thoughts from the Westland Mall

So, I'm still pregnant. Nothing is happening. I am almost hoping that it doesn't happen until after Saturday. Saturday is the boy's second and last football game. For Calvin, it is the only game he gets to play in. It is also Homecoming which means extra festivities that moms and dads need to be there for. If I go into labor by Thursday, I would be able to attend. If I go Friday or Saturday, I will miss. I will not have Chris miss. If the horrible happens and I go Saturday, Anna will have to be my coach. Chris has to be at the game with them. That's not selfish of me is it? Will Lizzie feel slighted later in life is Chris misses her birth for a football game? I hope not because if she does that's just too freaking bad. She has had ample time to come out and if she picks Saturday that's her own fault. :)

I went to the Westland Mall this morning to walk around and maybe get my slow moving cervix moving faster. I am not a mall frequenter. I can't remember the last time I went...maybe in March to get Emily's ears pierced. I am always shocked by the things I see there.

I am pretty sure that Satan and his minions live at Spencer's Gifts.

Some store called "Forever 21" was selling a crested sweater. The crest was exactly like the one on my HS uniform blazer. I could totally be in if I had saved that blazer!

Victoria's Secret is selling U of M t-shirts. Ok...it's been a long time since I've worn lingerie and even longer since I've been in a Victoria's Secret but since when are college t-shirts considered lingerie? I really want to know.

Charging $0.75 for a little kid to ride a little car for 3 seconds should be punishable by law.

All of my favorite scents are no longer available at Bath and Body Works. :(

That's all I have to say about that, Part II

Cervix has not changed since last appointment on Wednesday. I feel crappy. Scheduled to be induced on MONDAY, OCTOBER 6th. Maybe changing her name to Mandakini which means "slow moving."
