38 Weeks or 15 Days Depending on how you look at it

Its week # 38 and we are trying to wait patiently for Allyson to arrive. I am not sleeping well and am up every two hours or having a horrible time trying to go to sleep. Thus according to Michael makes him not sleep well either. We thought things were starting this past Sat as during the Red Sox's game we were timing contractions that were 8 minutes apart and they quit around 3 am. How nice to see false labor pains. It all seams to be very weird to us as there are times I am starving for food and then I have days where I'm not interested in food at all much less at the thought of eating...Scary huh considering they say babies gain a 1 lb a week in the last month! Her room is ready, the hospital bags are packed, the car seat has been installed in the Jeep and for some odd reason we feel rather ready to be parents at the moment yet terrified at the same time. The dogs are even ready. Today Butters went into her room and cried and was looking around the room. I couldn't figure out for the life of me what he was upset about perhaps hes just as anxious as we are...Now to attempt to try and get some sleep
