No baby, no worries


I'm gonna just pat myself on the back over here for having as good of an attitude as I have. You see, everyone around me keeps trying to hype me up.

The non-stop phone calls from both parents, the text messages, the FB comments of "any day now" " aren't you ready to pop?" "I'm sure you're so anxious to find out what the squish is!!"
My answer is always YES to every single one of those comments. Who wouldn't want to hold their baby at 38 weeks and skip out on those extra 2 weeks of pregnancy? Who wouldn't want to find out what their having after 9 month of anticipation? I mean, c'mon people...

All of this to say, I've remained A-ok with waiting this labor train out. Knowing i'm *only*dilated to a 1 and "soft and squishy" (what the heck does that even mean??) according to my OB. I know I can go into labor any second, and I welcome that with open arms. But until then? I'm soaking up these last few weeks of being a non parent. Of being just husband and wife and enjoying the rest of the Summer. I'm choosing to remain positive and not let my emotions get the best of me ( believe me, I've had my moments)

Monster baby will be here soon. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers the next few days and send us some good labor ju-ju.

Good luck girlie! I wasn't ready for pregnancy to be over...well, I was to know that she was okay but I wanted those extra few days to get everything in order and to enjoy being pregnant. The wait is well worth it!
