38 weeks.....

I think I might have shocked Josie last night- we went to Star Trek at the movie theator and the full sound effects were probably a shock to her system.... She was going nuts. And putting my hands over where I figured her ears were didn't seem to help much. Maybe she just liked it... maybe she'll become a Trekky... not sure. The movie was good though and it was fun to actually go to the theator in China and watch and English film! Just trying to get in as many dates as possible in these last few weeks!

Went to the doctor on Monday, all looks pretty good. She's head down but face up when means both knees and legs are free to move up and down the front of my stomach-- and boy do I feel it when she gets her little heel jammed into a stomach muscle. I'm just starting to get a couple stretch marks on my stomach and still very much have an inny belly button. It's such an inny I can't imagine it changing at all. She's a little squirmer though and has managed to get the umbilical cord wrapped one and a half time around her neck. I'm hoping she'll turn face down in the direction she came from and unwind herself. But, the doctors don't seem too concerned about the cord as it's quite loose still. We'll go in again this Sunday to check things out.

In the meantime, life goes on. I'm about to go to school and join Dave with the kindergarten class who is doing a simulation on what life is like in a Chinese countryside school. I'm sure they are loving it. The plan is to form a relationship with a mountain school Dave got to know well on his China treks and continue it through the years.

Besides that.... the waiting game is full on. I'm packed, ready to go, in fact, most of this stuff is in a bag by the door.... In other news, Dave celebrated his 29th b-day last Thursday and today is the last day we are the same age cause 30 comes tomorrow!!! I wonder how many May birthdays will be in this family?????

And, I just had to post this picture because it's just so cute. Little "miny Kim" is becoming so fun and animated!!! Check out Keturah!
