Waiting

Sorry for the lack of blogging. I've been not so patiently waiting for the birth of jellybean.
This waiting thing is completely new to me. With Levi I wasn't prepared to have him yet when he was ready to arrive. I went in just for a routine check and was told that was the day we were having him.
I've learned over the past week that patience is not a virtue/fruit of the spirit I posses. You may be thinking that I'm not due yet, you'd be right. However if you went down a list of the signs of labor I have all of them but two: my water hasn't broke and I'm not having productive contractions. After two trips to the hospital and two promises that I'd be back in a day or two, I'm mentally exhausted. I don't want to deliver early if the baby isn't ready. I've been struggling to remember that over the past week. I'm so ready to meet him/her it's ridiculous.
The end is near. If I haven't had the baby by Fri. I'm being induced. I can't tell you how excited I am.
Thanks for reading.

Hope you waiting ends soon! By the way, the teeter totter is at our church playground. Ryan's school also has one. If you are ever down in the area, we'll hook you up!

Just praying for you and your sanity. Think of you many times during the day and sending you positive thoughts.

WOW, you're getting close. You must be so excited. I can certainly understand the lack of patience, I was the exact same way even though they induced me 2 weeks early.

Congratulations on your upcoming "jellybean". Can't wait to read about the new little one!!!
