Still on schedule

I had a dr. appointment yesterday and we're still on schedule to go in on the 3rd!  She checked me and said I was dialated to a 1 and that she could feel her head!  She said I have a really long cervix and that compared to last time, I'm not thinning out as much as she thought I was, but it was good that I made some cervical change.  Then she kind of sat back and was thinking about what to do.  Because at my last appointment she said depending on how things were looking at this one, we might decide to hold off another week (my official due date is Nov. 3rd, which I thought it was the 8th, oh well) or continue to stay with the 3rd and 4th as the induction date.  I didn't say anything but in my head I was yelling "PLEASE DON'T HOLD IT OFF ANOTHER WEEK!" then thankfully she said we're going to keep it on the 3rd.  She said I could still go at any time on my own (doubt it) and that usually with first time moms she likes for them to go on their own, but she said since we live an hour away and I've already made some change she would feel more comfortable inducing on the 4th.  It's so weird to think that in 6 days she'll be here!

I've been trying to keep the parents at the daycare updated so they know when I'm planning on being out and a few of them are actually surprised to see me still working, they're really surprised that I haven't taken maternity leave yet.  Not my husband.  When I called Colton and told him that we're for sure scheduled for the 3rd I mentioned that Friday (today) would probably be my last day and I'll take Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday off to get everything at home ready and rest up.  He said "What!?  You're not going to work until Wednesday?"  I told him "gosh...I guess if you think I should I will, I just want to make sure everything is ready for her."  That boy is crazy!  He's gonna work me to death!  Physically I have no reason for not working except that I am just exhausted ALL the time, my main reason for taking a MEASLY 3 days off is just to prepare.  He of course is working until Wednesday evening, he'll probably get home an hour before we have to leave for the hospital!  He also thinks I'm being ridiculous for keeping our bag in my car.  I told him I don't want to have to worry about forgetting everything if for some reason we have to rush out the door.  I told him just to leave me alone and let me do it for my own peace of mind :)
