Waiting Game...

Day 6 of "pre-labor"...it really should be called a big huge tease. With braxton-hicks contractions, full blown contractions and a few other signs of labor going on I've decided that I'm just going to pretend I'm not really having a baby so I can stop getting my hopes up. I hear it all the time from nearly every single woman I talk to that first babies are always the most difficult. Well thank you Royce, you haven't let me down! Stubborn already. Today is Wednesday, I am due tomorrow, but have a Doctors appointment Friday...INDUCE ME PLEASE! Wouldn't it be great if babies knew our schedules and would make their grand appearance on the day that we get all our laundry done, are having a great hair day, and have had a good nights sleep? Just another reminder that parenthood is going to be a sacrifice. I love this bundle growing inside me with my entire heart. Prayer for patience. Prayer for a willingness to give up a need to control everything. I ask Royce everyday very nicely, "Please come out to meet me"...he doesn't listen very well. Again, a reminder that it's all on God's timing, I am not in control. Anxious for Friday to come. I need to enjoy these last few nights as a single unit...

    1. Love you too. Can hardly wait to share him with everyone. I couldn't ask for a more supportive family and group of friends :)
