Lots..

Lots of thoughts...Lots of emotions...Lots of activities....Lots going on as usual... and yet I find myself BORED! I'm so weird.

I'm 37 weeks pregnant. Baby and mommy are both measuring perfect and doing quite well. Heart beats, blood pressure, weight, size... all good. He could come today or he could come in 3 weeks. This is one of my least favorite parts of pregnancy...all of the unknowns at the end. When exactly will it all happen, How exactly it will all go, Where will we be, How will we feel, What will it be like to have two kids? I've have had a couple evenings with fairly intense contractions, cramping, back pain etc that have eventually let up. The doc says that's my body gearing up and doing what it should do. BUT it doesn't mean we're hours or days away...it could mean that... but it could just mean weeks still. Awesome. I feel really prepared as far as my house, and projects and having baby things goes. I'll likely need to make a run to walmart for diapers and a few last odds n ends... but that's no big deal. I would like him to wait till October so that we can enjoy s.i.l. Audrey's wedding in a week (WE'RE SO EXCITED FOR YOU GUYS!) I guess I need to just relax and quit worrying. Ultimately I really will just be happy to make it to October AND ecstatic to be holding a sweet healthy little boy in my arms AND almost as overjoyed to not be gigantic anymore :)

In the meantime we're soaking up the last few softball games (and bike rides and bbqs) of the season, potty training Miss Abigail, and trying to keep busy and keep my mind off the waiting game...
