The waiting is the hardest part
Due date is today, or either we're t-minus two to the due date...either way, we are tired of waiting! I mean, I know the part after this -- that would be the actually taking care of a baby -- is exhausting and challenging, and we should be enjoying our time before that, but still, we are ready. Nicola is about fed up with being pregnant, and I'm not sure what to do to help calm her anxiety, except to tell her it will be over soon. Instead of the negative "God, we're tired of being pregnant" thing, how about a positive perspective -- "We can't wait to meet our new daughter." Another one just like Ella would be great, thanks. Ella is truly delightful -- what fun we had today walking Bailey around the block and splashing in rain puddles. To see her in her pink sweat suit, green frog boots and yellow rain slicker -- so adorable. She's just the best.
So Lindsay, come on out! Your big sister and your mom and dad are ready to see you!
Not much to discuss other than that...work was nuts this week with the Web site launch and a board meeting, but now that I'm past that hurdle, it's all about the baby. Oh, and my mini obsession with getting an I-Pod Shuffle. I've found a buyer for the Boise tickets who will pay me enough extra money to get one! Yeah, I know...new baby, new digital music player. Really similar in terms of importance.
