Well, this is it. One last night of just two, one last late night rushing around getting things done and enjoying sometime with my husband. One last attempt at a solid nights sleep. Today was one last trip to the grocery store without a care in the world, one last long relaxing soak in the tub, and one last sleeping in until 10 a.m. With all of these lasts you would think that we were pretty depressed, instead we can't wait to throw it all out of the window, in fact, we wish that it would have ended a few weeks ago. Funny ain't it?
Tomorrow morning at 7:00 we begin a new journey. That's right, one of my biggest fears is now being faced, at 7:00 we are being induced. My sweet little one will officially be evicted from my body. Not going to lie, I am scared and yet excited at the same time. Hope and despair come in alternating waves. Currently we are floating back towards despair....but earlier today things were all rosy.
Well I had planed on posting a lot more, but it is getting late and David has finished his assigned task so it is off to bed so we can attempt to get a good nights sleep....HA yeah right, like that's gonna happen.

Pregnancy
Well, this is it. 40 weeks of excitement. 280 days of wondering and dreaming, and yet....she is still not here. I am going crazy! In all honesty this has basically been a dream pregnancy. I haven't been very sick, unless you count falling asleep at the drop of a hat a sickness. Lost weight until the third trimester, now slowly gaining it back. David has been very supportive of my every request and I know he is very very excited for her birth.
He said the cutest thing the other day. We were driving to our appointment when he turned to me and told me he is tired of being in 'baby limbo.' He has been discussing this with a friend at work about how they as fathers just want their babies out! They are tired of being pregnant and just want their daughters to be here. I love how excited he is, how much he obviously loves her already, and honestly I can't wait to see the look on his face when he meets her for the first time.
Sadly I doubt she is coming today, and not tomorrow, prob not for who knows how long. I started maternity leave on Monday, and am really glad I did. This week has been wonderful, I have accomplished so much, spent time with family, and had 'me' time. For the past three weeks we have been stuck at a one, and honestly I think I may burst into tears if the doctor says one on Monday. We are basically as ready as we can be, not much more we can do. Guess we should just focus on the approaching holidays and how to make them all that we can, all the while hoping each and every day that our little star will make an appearance in our lives.
