Well, it looks like the hurricane is coming here. The predictions for storm activity here in BR are pretty moderate, 30-40 mph sustained winds with 60+gusts, 4-15 inches of rain. I am thankful for this forcast, they are comparing it to Katrina (which we weathered awesome, only lost power for 8 hours). I do think it could be a little more intense as we are on the east side of the storm with current predictions. Who knows.....

Lucie went to Melba and Joes, so she should be very safe there. Mr. Joe had the trees trimmed around the house last week, just in case. They were so sweet and with the generator they are loaning us, they got "me" an AC unit for the bedroom. So nice....we were all sold out here of AC units. I hate that we had to split up the family, but it was either split Jarred and I or Lucie and I. I HATED to leave Lu but if the baby were to come, I would hate for Jarred to miss it. Lucie loves going up there, so I think it was the most reasonable and safe option. I am glad she is not here with us, as I would worry about my ability to care for her if we are messed up after the storm.

I am getting pretty big now, 38 weeks, and not moving very quickly. I am having a TON of prelabor contractions and just hoping the baby comes when it is ready (but hopefully not during the storm).
