It's another bright, steamy, hot day in NC! We have tried walking a lot and usually go right before it gets dark, but it's really hard to walk when you can barely breathe outside and it's still 96 degrees at 8:30 pm. I also can't walk at the gym because my poor feet are so swollen I can't wear anything but one pair of flip flops. So, we went walking around Walmart for a while last night :-) Not sure yet where we'll walk tonight - I'd like the mall, but that may not be a good idea!
We went in again for another non-stress test today as scheduled by our Dr to make sure Bella girl is still safe and sound. Apparently, the test is good for 3 days, so we'll be taking it every 3 days. The nurse from last time forgot to write down that we were coming in today, so the other nurses had no idea we were coming in and pretty upset with the other nurse about that :-/ They checked her heart rate and my contractions for a good 30 mins and everything seems to still be going well! Every time I had a contraction, her heart rate would go up - not too high though! We are scheduled for another non-stress test for Monday - if Bella still doesn't want to come out. When we left, I saw a woman in labor walking around and another one checking in - I was so jealous :-) Please keep praying that Bella will arrive on her own and that we won't have to force her out! Thanks so much for thinking and praying for us through this long journey!

She is feeling so comfy she wants to stay where she is. She won't be as late as bekky sue so comfort yourselves with that knowledge!
Love, Aunt Kathy
