3 days and nothing

Today I had my latest doctor appointment and nothing. I'm three days from my due date and little miss still doesn't want to come out.  I'm ready to be done, but apparently Miss Lilybelle is determined to stay inside. I was hoping that I would be further along, but it was not to be. So to make me feel better, Tim went and got me some yummy, yummy ribs from the annual Nugget Rib Cook-Off. It's amazing how a few ribs can make the world of difference. Now I need some cookies. Cookies and ribs make the world all better. So I'll cross my fingers and hope that something happens within the next few days. I can only hope.

Yummy, yummy ribs

Cinnamon Rolls from Scratch

A month ago my parents gave us their bread maker.  I've let it sit in our kitchen still in the bag unused until a week ago.  I made some bread, and after that success I decided to try to make cinnamon rolls yesterday.  This is the first time that I've ever made them from scratch.  I've made them from a box and a can, but never from scratch. So yesterday early morning when I couldn't sleep, I loaded up the ingredients in the bread maker and let it make the dough. After that I kneaded the dough, made cinnamon rolls, and let them rise one more time before I baked them. I think they turned out pretty good.

Ready to eat - yummy!

Yesterday was also one year ago that we brought Sophie home. She's been such an energy in our house ( a crazy one), and we've all enjoyed seeing her grow up.

 On the baby front - she's still in there. I'm only six days away from my due date, and definitely feeling very pregnant. I could hope that she comes this week, but I have a feeling that she will be late. I just can't wait to meet her and hold her for the first time. Also I would like my feet back. I'm tired of swollen feet.
