Lunch today was a real treat. When I stepped out of the River Street Deli Cafe I heard a familiar tune, something that I hear almost every football Saturday, but usually on the TV.
It was the Auburn University band performing at Chattanooga’s Miller Park. I walked over (stopping for a few contractions along the way) and sat down on the hill. I borrowed a cell phone and called D who promptly ran the 5 blocks from his office to the park.
We sang, cheered, and yelled along with the other Chattanooga-based Auburn fans. It was a real pep rally, a place for the band to stop along the way to Knoxville. (After the rally they were going to have their lunch and go to the stadium (Findley?) and practice before finishing their trip to Knoxville.)
Vegas odds say that the Vols are the 2 point favorite, but I still stand by my claim that Auburn will leave Knoxville winners.

Auburn is going to win tomorrow. WAREAGLE!
Oh, and I am 3 cm dialated and contracting consistently until I lay down. Booooooo.
I had a little bit of a breakdown in the doctor’s office yesterday. I was just so tired and feeling so heavy and sore. Once I got to D’s office I was feeling a bit better so I think we can make it another week. That is, if we have to make it another week. The thing about being 3 cm dialated is that I could stay 3 cm for weeks. (So no getting super excited missy- you know who you are.)
The weirdest thing about the appointment (and you might want to file this under TOO MUCH INFORMATION) is that while the doctor was checking me, she could feel the baby’s head! As she kind of tickled him/ her the baby kicked and squirmed. It was uber weird and cool all at the same time.
That is all for now. We will be doing little “getting ready for baby” things this weekend and bracing ourselves for getting through another week.
