The waiting GAME...

Pregnancy. Blogging. And a WHALE. Can they be related? I think with my "creative" mentality they can. Follow me for a moment. Blogging is about new ideas, things close to the heart, and sometimes just down right word vomit. So where am I going with this.... besides the infamous trail of semi-related thoughts: THEY (pregnancy and blogging) both consist of playing the WAITING game.
It doesn't matter if I am waiting for a brilliant idea for a post or the arrival of our little girl. They both involve the patience that I continually lack. It's being worked on.

I was rebuked by my loving sister the other day that there hasn't been an update for quite a while. My response, "but I have five drafts done, just can't seem to 'post' them". Her response, "If I can't see/read them, they do not count". Sadly she is right.

Now, on with the topic: THE WAITING GAME. I am to that point in pregnancy where you have to wait. Graciously enough my doctor might start inducing me on Monday, August 17th. For those who follow, yes I realize I am not due until the 22nd, but with the chain of events that happened about three weeks ago, James' baby weight at birth (9.4 lbs) and my "smaller" frame, the doctor feels that it would be best to start the induction at 39.2 weeks instead of 41. I AGREED. Not to mention, when we went to the specialist for the last checkup to make sure she is A-OK, the tech kept hitting to us how chubby she is. So is that a nice way to say that I should be expecting a whale of a baby? Hmmmmm. Either way I am excited for her to be here.

People at work ask me all the time if I am ready. YES that is right I am STILL working, besides the fact they NEED me and I really enjoy my job, it helps with the whole patience problem. When I am busy at work-- I have less time to over analyze and worry. You ask about what? Well, I am good at conjuring up many "what if scenarios" that don't help with peace of mind. Back to the work question: my usual response is "I am sure ready to be done with this pregnancy state." Ready for motherhood- now that is another story. I am EXCITED about our new journey and life as parents, but READY.... that's a little harder to answer. We will see.

Hope you enjoy this weekend.

I have big plans while James plays golf with his dad. THE NURSERY.

Pictures will come shortly. Probably after the baby is here, to be honest.

till then.

*Note: James got me a dog (lil' Toby) while we were engaged, but I gave it back after a day.
