The countdown continues... Can you believe Melissa is almost into her eigth month of pregnancy? To us it seems like just yesterday we were thinking about getting pregnant and now little Molly is set to arrive in just weeks!

We are both very excited about her coming and are doing our best to prepare a warm and beautiful home for her (see the nesting instinct). The ironic thing is that Molly's room (which she won't even inhabit until sometime in 2008) is about a hundred times nicer than our room which we sleep in every night... I'm not quite sure how that happened.

Melissa is feeling good but slowing down just a little bit. This week she started swimming as walking is getting more and more difficult. Molly is still lying transverse (sideways) with her head on Melissa's right side and her feet on her left. We are encouraging her to turn head down for birth with incentives like a midnight curfew and unlimited text messaging to her friends but she remains stubbornly fixed in her favorite position. Any suggestions?

Thanks for your continuing support!

Love,

Bill, Melissa, and Molly
