Today?

I'm headed to the doctor this morning and we're packing our hospital bags just in case. The doctor told me that she "needed" to see me if I hadn't had the baby by today, and, obviously, since you haven't seen the baby announcement, she's still inside my womb! So, I don't know if that means she'll schedule an induction for today or tomorrow, but I hope so. I cannot wait to meet our daughter, and my brain is totally mommied right now, so I need her to get here so I have an actual excuse for that to be the case :) Well, we'll keep people posted. Like I said before, Cam and I have a baby announcement email list and we're going to try to send it out pretty close to time, so if you want to add your name to it, send me a message and I'll get you on there some how some way! (even if it's a little bit late!)

Tomorrow's the due date!

Well, here we are... tomorrow is the day we have been anticipating ever since our first sonogram, and what is so strange is that it very well could not be Zanna's birth-day.... she may very well deide to ignore the doctor and our persistent pleas to come out and see us and wait a few days. I just wanted to reflect on what I am thankful for today, as a 9-month pregnant mom-to-be....
Today, I'm thankful for....

• friends who text or call just to say " I'm thinking about you"
• smoothies at Jamba Juice
• church members who call me a "ticking time-bomb" :)
• having a husband who willingly cooks dinner (and likes to do it!)
  
• peace and quiet
• having the time to relax and have nothing, truly nothing, pressing to do
• baby kicks and wiggles
• God's abundant love
• feeling GREAT even with a 30+ pound addition to my body!

• laughing so hard with a co-worker that I think I might explode (talking about Eklund (spelling?) from the book of Judges, of all things...)

Well, we'll see! Either tomorrow will be the day, or it won't be.... whatever the case is, I'm grateful to be healthy and happy today and ready to meet my baby girl face-to-face whenever she's ready to meet us.....

10 Days!

I feel like we've hit a milestone- ten days until Zanna's due date! It feels sometimes like I can't remember what it was like NOT to be pregnant, and then sometimes it feels like it can't possibly be time already. Cam and I are ready to be parents; Cam of course is going to be, in my humble opinion, the greatest father ever and I cannot wait to see him hold Suzanna. I just know it will make my heart melt. There will be no more beautiful sight than that! Really, I'm just astonished that we just have 10 days until the due date- I know that it can still be a few days after that, or sooner... but, it still feels like a big milestone! :) Well, we'll keep you posted!!
