Is this really real??

So I decided to just sit here and post something...anything, mainly because my kids are asleep, my house is cleaned from top to bottom (in hopes that I end up in the hospital first thing in the morning) and my husband is off at an Elder's Quorum party. BUT I really have thought ALL day about this little guys being born and it seems SO unreal to me. I am not sure why. I have looked at several of my used-to-be-pregnant friend's blogs today and to my surprise and unbelief there really was a healthy baby inside of them that came out. Sounds silly coming from someone who has done this 2 other times, but I really am in denial that this child will ever come out! I think my anxiety is getting the best of me and it takes all I have got to not burst into tears at any given moment. I know I have done this for 9 months, so 10 more days should be a breeze, but really I think they can also be the very hardest.

So to get my mind off of baby, I am taking my mom shopping tomorrow. We are going to get all of the "last minute" necessities. I am going to walk and walk and walk in hopes it will bring on labor...we'll see how that goes! If you are wondering, yes this blog was pretty much part of having the "whine flu" but now I am done and I think I will go take a hot bath and scavenge through my house to find some chocolate-possibly even break into some frozen cookie dough that has been calling my name for almost a week. YUM!

Hang in there Jess, That last week is extremely tough! But after that little man is born, you'll look back and think Wow, that went by so fast :) You eat whatever you want, you have to load up on Calories for the Delivery!
