We have been super busy these last few weeks with baby showers, family gatherings and last minute house preparations. Baby Elias will be here any day now and that in its self makes me so happy! Joey and I had a bet going on what day he would be born- Joey said Nov. 10 and I said Nov. 12... and those days have come and gone and no baby! (the loser would have had to change diapers for the first whole week- it would have been nice to see Joey attempt to do that lol)
As for Baby Elias and I, we are doing great! Dr. Ball reaffirmed at my last appointment that I am still on track and now it was just a matter of waiting.... and let me tell you waiting sucks! And if you know me well enough, you know I HATE WAITING! For about two weeks now, I've had dreams that I was going into labor and then I open my eyes and looked down and there it was my big oh belly! Sometimes I start cramping and I stop to time the contraction cycles, but shortly after they go away. I have even thought my water had broken... but no I had just waited too long to go potty!! (sorry to share that! lol)
People keep asking if I am ready... physically I AM READY... but in terms of everything else, I think Joey and I have done a good job of preparing ourselves. I have his diaper bag ready, my bag is somewhat ready and Joey will wait to the last minute... typical male mentality. Reality is this baby will come whenever he wants whether we are ready or not... personally I feel you can never be "ready" enough.
I have my next doctor's apppointment this Friday and hopefully I will have good news for you.
Keep your fingers crossed that next time you hear from us it will be about Baby Elias!
