I know that most of you are checking daily to try and find out if I have had the baby yet so I just thought I would update and let you know no such luck yet:( I didn't really feel up to going to stake conference this time and dealing with all the comments about being hugely pregnant and still not having had the baby on top of getting up to go to the bathroom every 20 minutes or so (he loves bouncing/pressing his head on my bladder!) So I went inactive today, bad example I know, sue me. Some have checked with me to see if the reason I was gone was because I was having/had had the baby and just so we are clear--nope, just lazy.
I am having a hard time wrapping my head around the idea that in a few short days I will be having this baby. I feel like I have helped raise several babies already (having so many younger siblings) that the day to day stuff doesn't really worry me. I have been a mother the past 2 years to Adrian and Luke, full-time with Adrian since March, but I didn't get to be their mother when they were babies. I am a little nervous that this time I am responsible and can't blame anything on someone else! (Is that terrible of me?) I know that mistakes will be made along the way, but hopefully it won't be anything too major:)
If anyone has any last minute advice to give a woman ready to deliver a ginormous baby in a few days feel free to share! (Interesting side-note: spell-checker is ignoring "ginormous." Does that mean it is a real word? I always though we made it up...)

It helped me with my first baby to remember that people had babies and then CHOSE to have more, so could it really be that bad? It can be (not for me), but even those people choose to do it again. So, hang in there and pretty soon you will get to meet that new little boy!
Ok...so technically you have 1 more day on the widget, right? (That is such an obnoxious thing to say!!) I am always overdue and I KNOW how those last few days can feel like an eternity. My only advice...eat whatever you want (comfort food) and stay home in a comfy chair with as little movement as possible. Watch a good movie...read a good book and get as much sleep as possible because you won't be getting much for awhile and you need to bank some rest!
Love you and thinking about you! If you need an ear...give me a call :)
So, it says 0 now!!! But I guess if you haven't had him yet then that might not be something you want to be reminded of . . . hang in there!
As for advice, sleep. As much as you can :)
