Addison, the Hiccups and the Ox Roast

For those who do not know(shame on you) the Ox Roast is the annual Labor Day extravaganza that occurs in my hometown of West Jefferson. It concludes each year with the roasting of thousands of pounds of beef - then sold on Monday as Ox Roast sandwiches...yummy!

37 Weeks!



Today, July 20th, is 37 weeks. A quick update...





  • on July 10th we had a doctor appointment. We were told that Melissa was 1 cm dilated and 50% effaced! This was pretty exciting news and raised our hopes that Addison will enter the world in July.


  • on July 17 we had another doctor visit. Nothing much happened and we were told that not much had changed. This was welcomed news because we were suppose to leave to go to Lancaster, PA for teacher training.


  • July 17th also marked our 3 year anniversary!


  • we are now back from an awesome training session! We are super pumped for next school year...however our main focus is else where=]


  • Melissa has been experiencing an increasing amount of cramping for the past week. The frequency and intensity have been increasing!! We hope that her body is positioning Addison for a 'special' delivery!



That is a quick update of how things are going. Our bags are packed and we are anxiously awaiting Addison!
