- Well here goes. We had some family in town this week. Marissa's Mother, sister, and grandmother flew into town and spent some time with us here. I also had my Mother come and stay with us. So we had quite a few family members down here having fun with us. It's been great to have them here. My mother has had fun watching and playing with our little John. Tonight John was crying at his door because he didn't want to go to bed. John will cry every
name he can think of to get out. He was crying for Grandma Cheryl and my mom came up there and had some good one on one time with him. She talked to him and rubbed his belly till he fell asleep. That was cute. We have had lots of fun so far. Today we even had to drive under a tree because it began to hail some huge ice balls. I was worried the car was going to get some dents. Then later it rained so hard it almost reminded me of a southern rain. Hard to drive in. It was fun. - Marissa had some contractions yesterday. Her family were here and I told them that she didn't need to go to the hospital. All of a sudden I had a multi-generational assault of women all chatting at me at the same time. I had to take a few steps back and submit. I guess joking was not right at that time. We were excited to think that we would have the baby when the parents and family were already down here. (by the way the baby is not due officially till June 12) We went into the hospital and they hooked her up and looked at her for a bit. They ended up sending us home. It was a false labor. Bummer. Oh well, we will keep waiting.
I went to my 3rd official Chiropractic appointment today. I will be going there for the next 180 days on the schedule they set up for me. They took some x-rays and we looked at them. Even before the doctor came in I was able to point out the problem area. I have this 12 degree angle after one of vertebra. My neck has been a problem since last summer when I went tubing and took a big wave. I flew about 10 feet and landed on my face. I came out of the water thinking I had a bloody lip. My neck didn't feel the same after that and this last few months it was getting worse. After the first visit I felt I was able to get the full range of motion back in my neck which was great. I am glad I can get this fixed. (picture is not my neck x-ray)- Marissa is really looking for ideas to induce labor. So anyone who has any ideas let us know. She is ready to get this baby out of her. ha ha.

Hang in there Rissa,
We're praying this baby will believe he's done baking and come on out! Until then lavish little Juan with as much attention as you can, because he's going to have to share you soon.
Love ya.
Hey Riss. You are looking for ways to induce labor? Well, my doctor had suggested several for Maiby - even sworn, tried-and-true methods suggested by her midwife friend - but NONE of them worked, and some were really gross (think fish-flavored eggs). Eventually I just had to accede that we have to wait until the baby is ready, which is such a sad thought. Good luck.
I keep checking your blog to see if that new baby is here. I hope Marissa is doing ok and I bet she can not wait now.
