6 p.m. July 24th

We're almost through the due date that the ultrasound technician cited when we had our first ultrasound back on January 2nd. Sammy has decided to defy both dates - this just confirms my suspicion that a fetus doesn't have access to clocks or calendars! I'm doing quite well today having had a productive day of work. I've been spoiled by Skills Canada - Ontario (www.skillsontario.com) as they've allowed me to continue working as long as I'd like AND I get to work from home. I find that it's really helped me these past few days especially to be able to focus on something other than 'waiting for baby'.
