The Waiting Game

If you look on the right side of this blog you'll see that cute little brunette holding a stuffed bunny telling us all that my little girl is done cooking. Well, if this is true then shouldn't I be holding her in my arms and kissing her soft little mushy face right now? Ha ha, ok I know that most people don't have their babies on their due date, but for 9 months I have had a date in my mind so all of the sudden when that day comes and goes and my little nugget is still in utero, I tend to get a little anxious.
Is she going to come tomorrow? Am I going to have to wait another week? Is she ok in there? It's the unknown that's so exciting, stressful, frustrating, amazing!!!
Things are going well, I'm just so ready. I never thought I'd get to that place because I've always had a list of things that I wanted to get done before she got here. Well, the list is finally complete and so I'm emotionally and physically ready. Today was my last day at work (I do have to go back for a few days in August, but I'm pretty much done). Here I wait....regardless of what happens it's still crazy to think that in less than a week I will have my baby. Yay!!!!
She is moving around like crazy as I'm typing right now. We've been chatting all day. I told her this morning that today was her special day and there were a lot of people, especially her Mommy and Daddy, that are really excited to meet her. She just doesn't like everyone making a big deal about her arrival. She's so shy and modest so I'm trying to calm her nerves. Ha ha, ok now I clearly need to go to bed. Happy Baby Week for Me!!!!

I still say the 25th is the perfect day! Good luck on whatever day she decides (or has decided for her) to be her big day.

Oh man, tell your baby to come out. Dee Dee wants to play. Good luck with everything and let me know if you need help and such.

Steph - I'm so sorry. Baby girl- get out of her belly!!! Going over is not a great thing. You sound far more patient and collected than I was. You're going to be amazing parents.

I know how you feel! As soon as she's out, time will start to fly! We REALLY need to meet for lunch in the future and have our little girls meet! Please! Really, I bet Sara would come, too. But first, have that baby girl! Maybe in a few months when you feel like you want to venture out. I'll be waiting!
