week 37 Dr. Appointment

We just got back from seeing my OB and he said everything looks wonderful.  Joshua is still head down.  He didn't check to see if I am dilated any further but I don't feel like I am.  Unfortunately, my contractions aren't getting any stronger.  I asked about the ultrasound he mentioned last week and he didn't sound to enthusiastic about it.  Maybe at 39 weeks.  I was hoping to deliver before then.  I'm so tired and ready to be done.  Tim and I have an interview appointment scheduled next Wednesday with a pediatrician that comes highly recommended.  So after we see him I'm going for a long walk, while eating spicy foods, pineapple and a coconut cookie from the Cookie Shoppe (they boast a 60% success rate.  It's worth a shot!) and whatever else to get the show on the road.  I know it is ultimately the Lord's timing and not mine but I'm just so ready to be done.  Can you blame a girl for trying? Okay, I'm off to bake a whole bunch of chicken to freeze for dinners later.
