What will this week hold? Flying and....a baby?

Now, one week later, we are still waiting on this little baby to come. He/she seems to be taking their time.  I am a little over 40 weeks now.  So at the last appointment we had a bpp ultrasound to make sure the baby was still healthy and not under any stress. And baby looked great and so cute. It won't be long till we can hold him/her. And our whole lives will change. The Lord knows the number of our days even before He starts forming us in the womb. He has the birth date picked out already. Come on baby! We are so excited to meet you and, besides, everything is ready. Peter and I even had a fun date weekend together. So our to-do list has grown pretty short.
But an exciting event to note this week was my first dream of the baby. I know! It has been a long time in coming. Finally though, after 40 weeks of pregnancy I have had a dream about the baby. (Peter, however, has had countless dreams of both boys and girls being born). But in my dream we had a little boy with lots of dark brown hair. He was born in a small fishing boat and labor and delivery only took about 15 min. Incredible. And not quite realistic. But it was a dream. In one of Peter's dreams we had a little girl who came out talking and told him that she liked being in the living room.
Peter will hit the flight line this week, meaning that he starts flying the T-6. His first ride, called his dollar ride, will be on Thursday. It's called a dollar ride because you give the instructor a dollar after you land. Why a dollar when they just risked their life flying with you? I don't know.... But Peter is ready and excited. It's amazing to think of him flying the planes I see over head.
