A little quote that I want to remember everyday...
If you are still in the process of raising children, be aware that the tiny fingerprints that show up on almost every newly cleaned surface, the toys scattered about the house, the piles and piles of laundry to be tackled will disappear all too soon and that you will—to your surprise—miss them profoundly.

40 Weeks & 6 Days
Still no signs of labor. I have an appointment with my midwife this afternoon to get my membranes stripped. I hope this will start labor so I can meet Brooke tomorrow!

At least she'll be strong and healthy when you do finally meet her. Its all that extra time in the cooker :-).
It worked with Hudson :). She will be healthy and strong!! I can't wait to hear the news. I've been just a little obsessive about checking your blog and my email to hear that labor has started or she's arrived!! :)
Kurt and I are checking your blog regularly for news. Lots of babies come past their due date. I guess they just want some incubation time. She'll come when she's ready! Stay patient. (But hurry up because we are on pins and needles!) :) Kelli
WOW I can't believe Brooke hasn't arrived yet...your Dr. Apt should definitely work, I just walked a ton after my apt. and that seemed to start my contractions. Good Luck, I can't wait to see her.
Holly & Jason ~ She is just getting you ready for all the times you will have to wait for her.. She is teaching you patience :) Can't wait to meet Brooke!!! Denise Jacobsen
Jason and I met in Utah in 1997, married in 2001 then moved to Washington in 2002 where our beautiful daughters were born; Brooke in 2009 and Skylar in 2011. In autumn of 2011 we decided to move back to Utah to raise our girls near family. We are happy to be back in the mountains and sunshine. The purpose of our blog is to share the adventures, memorable times and updates of our daughters with our friends and family!

The stripping of the membranes seemed to get Peyton out - hope it does the same for Brooke!
Have you tried placing you hand in warm water? I saw that on teevee once.
Hang in there, Holly!
