4 wheeling to induce labor?


Yes it is true- I'm still pregnant. Yesterday we went 4 wheeling in an effort to move things along- I've tried everything else. Eating spicy foods, I made egg plant Parmesan-yummy, drinking raspberry leaf tea, and even Caster oil- none of them worked! So yesterday we rode about as hard as a pregnant lady can without real really hurting myself. We found about every pot hole and bump in the brush that we could. It was fun but unsuccessful. Apparently I am part elephant and after 4 children my body hasn't figured out that humans only have a nine month gestational period- as opposed to elephants which are two years if you didn't know. Anyway- Eli's been enjoying riding grandpa's mini 4 wheeler for a while now and yesterday Eve got brave and did it too. She has a little trouble steering and driving at the same time but who doesn't? :)

So there you go- still pregnant, still uncomfortable and amazed every morning that I wake up- still pregnant. I expect no less then a 9lb baby at this point- anyone care to place some bets?

You have your own "MythBuster" experiment going.... Every myth is busted but the one we want to bust!..It's OK..that one is NOT a myth, it will bust. This little spirit just wanted to be in on the celebration of Christ! A December baby is just what we need.
