I didn't even ask the doctor about having this baby early, but he gave me the option of being induced on Dec. 27th. My due date is January 2nd. I don't know what to do, but he said I have to decide by next week because all the appointments will be booked after that because Provo is a baby factory. I have a list of pro's and con's that I am considering, but any suggestions would be appreciated.
December pro's (being induced):
-We would get an additional tax cut
-We would have a little girl one week earlier
-I would be done being pregnant earlier
-no false alarms and I would get to go to the hospital calmly
December con's:
-Our little girl can blame me if she doesn't like her birthday being 2 days after Christmas
-David's b-day, Caleb's b-day, Christmas, and baby girl's b-day will all be in December and occur within a 2 week period.
Anyways, that is what I will be thinking about. Here are some Thanksgiving pics:
Caleb looked like a stud on Thanksgiving and he knew it. He was totally posing.
We tried to take a family picture before we left the house for Thanksgiving festivities; as you can see the picture didn't turn out very well and our camera broke in the process. We tried setting it on the mailbox and it fell down a couple feet onto the cement. Sad day. Now our camera is permanently blurry. All of our pictures look like this:
Blurry picture of Black Friday shopping. Caleb chased the train through the whole mall when he saw it drive by and he had quite a crowd laughing at him. How could we resist taking him on the train after that?

Don't do December, you know baby will be happier the further away her birthday is from Christmas and Caleb's (I'm putting all person feelings aside:)
ps - I missed you at home, but you guys looked so cute on Thanksgiving...you can't even tell you're pregnant in pictures!
I can't believe that it is already so soon! If you aren't miserable those last couple weeks, why not wait...you could have a new years baby :)
Gosh where has the time gone? As far as what to do? pro's and con's for both but I have had TONS of people tell me that being induced is not to much fun. (They had more problems with the delivery and it was harder on the body since the body was not ready to have the baby....) That after doing it both ways everyone I have talked to would prefer to NOT be induced. But I have never been induced so you may have heard different.
My birthday is 3 days BEFORE Christmas! My parents always made my birthday especially special because of the nearness to Christmas! Now-I LOVE my birthday (even though I'm almost 24, haha.)
I saw your mom and sister the other day! :) I hope your doing well Aleasha! :)
