A little progress

At my 36-week appointment on Thursday, I was told I'm "a good 1 cm dilated." I guess that's better than a "bad" 1 cm? Baby's head is down and he's putting pressure where he needs to for continued progress. I have this image of Finding Nemo when all the fish were in the net and Dory got everyone to chant "SWIM DOWN!" So, everyone together now: SWIM DOWN BABY BEAN! My next detailed exam isn't for 2.5 more weeks, so I probably won't have much to report till then.

Dominic did a day of Ragbrai on Friday with the same group we've gone with other years. My hometown, Dyersville, was the overnight town, and Mom was gracious enough to host the entire team in her basement and yard. Dominic had fun riding and I enjoyed observing the town being taken over by tens of thousands of bikers and visitors. I also enjoyed spending time with Mom, Elaine, Gary and Bev's family. Saturday it was back to Ankeny for a block party in our cul-de-sac. It was fun and we're grateful to be blessed with great neighbors!
