I've been doing a lot more cooking lately than ever before. I want to make sure that everyone here eats properly. Especially me, though I really should be cutting back. I need to lose some of this baby weight. |

(Posted from my Mobile Device) Still at the hospital. Baby not here yet. Only to 4cm. Want to meet Christopher! |

Private to Alex, Kurt, Sue, Wanda, Pietro, Annie and Erik I'm going in for my induction on Monday morning at 6am. Hopefully it'll push me into labor, and Christopher will be born either that afternoon or the next day. My doctor says he's safer out than in, with my own health problems.
I'm super freaked out about it, though. As if the rest of the pregnancy wasn't scary enough! Wish me luck? I'll have Alex call from the hospital when he's here. |

The doctor says that Christopher could be here any day now. I've been going in for biweekly tests to make sure everything's all right. It's so strange and so difficult to have to keep things so secret, and safe. I sort of wish we could move my OB in here for the next month, so I wouldn't have to worry about going out. As it is, things are going to be fine. I'm safe, we're safe. That's what matters.
If you need me, e-mail or text. I'm on bedrest and bored out of my mind. |

Christopher is due on my 19th birthday. How strange is that? I wonder if we'll share a birthday, or if he'll come early. I sure hope he doesn't come late.
I apologize for the levity of this post. I just don't have it in me to write anything more emotional. |

(Posted before their meeting with Mr. Essex) Thank you to everyone who made our wedding day special! It was magic, and I'm so glad that we were able to spend it with our best, closest friends and family.
39 days until my due date! Gosh, i can't wait. I'm ready. Poor Christopher isn't ready yet, but I certainly am! I can't eat too much, i can't sleep... I'm peeing every five minutes... Sorry if that's TMI for you guys.
We're going out for lunch, I'll be in my wig. And I've got an appointment with my OB... we can kill two birds with one stone. Hope I'm not too tired by the end of the day. (Who am I kidding, right? I'm always tired.) |

I don't know if I'm going to make it to midnight for New Years. I've been so tired lately, so exhausted. Maybe I'll try staying up until midnight tonight as a trial run. Does anyone want to keep me company? |

Ugh, restless leg pains. Why else would a person be up at four minutes past ASS AM? Christopher has two more months to bake, but I'm ready to meet him now! 62 days to go. Boy, the time certainly flies.
I have the cutest dress for the dance tonight. I can't wait to see everyone else dressed up! |

I'm so excited for the shower this weekend! I know we've got a dance the night before, but we're going to be dancing again at the shower! I'm going to take a quick ride to the airport around midday, but I'll be back in time for the party. It'll be so great to get out of this mansion for a bit! I think I've watched Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog about a dozen times over the last week. I check my e-mail every five minutes, and have all my winter break homework finished already! It's good that I've got all these things done, but... I miss going to the mall! I miss Target with Alex, and I miss Starbucks. Speaking of getting out for a little bit, do I need to do anything else to help set up for the party? I can help with food or music or decorations or anything. |

Private to Meggan Meggan, I have an appointment set up for us at the Day Spa in town. Mani/pedis and facials before the ball. I won't take no for an answer. |

Ugh, dentist appointment and flu shot instead of power training. What a day. I hope everyone else is having a good one! |

Private to Sue, Wanda, Jean What can I do to help set up this Christmas Party/Bridal Shower/Baby Shower thing? I'm rather excited to get things planned out.
And, in case I forgot to tell you, Alex and I are planning for a New Year's Eve wedding. I hope you have the day open on your calendar. ;) |

No more pumpkin ice cream with chocolate chips and bacon bits for me. The doc put me on a pretty strict diet. 3 meals a day, with 2-3 snacks. Low carbs in the morning, high protein, iron-rich, less sugar and fat...
I have a feeling I'm not going to enjoy this very much.
If it gets worse, or I have any symptoms, they're going to have me repeat the blood glucose screen, and I may have to prick my finger to test my blood sugar levels throughout the day. Ugh. |

Everything's sort of gone back back to normal. I just wish I could delete those weeks from my memory. Alex is back, he's moved into my room, and we're never going to be pulled apart again.
[Private to Sue] I can ask Jean to get some extra blood for you to do your testing when I go in for my annual physical.
We should talk wedding plans. [/Private]
[Private to Alex] Before I forget, I asked Kurt to be Christopher's Godfather. I hope that's all right with you. And I was thinking to ask Sue to be Christopher's Godmother.
When do you want to get married? [/Private] |

I don't really know what to say.
I could use some homework help. |

[Private to Pietro] Sue wants some of your blood for a science experiment. I'd give it to her if I was you.
And is there anything going on between you and Ali? [/Private]
[Private to Wanda] Sue's running a science experiment thingy, and I volunteered. It'd be really helpful to her if you and Pietro volunteer, too. She can get the sibling thing. [/Private]
[Private to Erik] I'm letting Sue Storm run some blood work on Christopher and Me. I hope she's run this idea by you? Apparently she's doing some genetic research, and she and Reed discussed that her project would be better if she could look at people with similar genetics. Honestly, I don't really understand all that she's doing...
But I thought I'd keep you posted on what was going on. And if you want to volunteer for the project, I'd be shocked, but I'm sure Sue would be thrilled. [/Private] |

I'm headed off to the beach this afternoon, so if anyone needs me you can text. I've got my phone. [Private to Alex]I love you. I'll see you late on Monday night when we get home. Good luck with your Great Aunt's Memorial service. Don't miss me too much while I'm gone, okay? |
