We're Still Here!

I'm still here and ready for our little baby whenever he's ready for us! I'm progressing along quite well and surprised that our son isn't here yet! I've been extremely anxious the last while and finally feel like I've come to terms with still being pregnant lol. Our Dr has been telling us since 37 weeks that I could deliver any day! I wish she wouldn't have because it has made this last month painfully long. I really want our baby to stay inside as long as he needs and I've vowed to not do anything to rush him out, but I can't wait to love him and tell him how much I've wanted him my whole life! I'm sitting at "almost 4 cm's" (so what is that anyway? 3.5? 3?) dilated and completely effaced... if you're a mommy you know how uncomfortable it is! I had a few down days last week and was so grateful to have my sweet mother come rescue me over the weekend. She is such a wonderful, spiritual and gracious woman! I feel so much peace and love around her. I was pretty jealous to hear 2 of my neighbors delivered their babies last week when I had the first due date of us 3, dang it! So I can be jealous, but have all the more reason to be grateful. I know that this last little while will go fast... even if I go past my due date! What's a few more days if I've gone almost 40 weeks, right!? I can tell you that my tired body is quite ready, but I guess he's just not! And that's okay! Being pregnant has truly brought me an added measure of the Spirit and I'm not anxious to let that go. I love my husband and can't wait to watch him with our baby boy!
