I can't believe that in 2 weeks, we will be completely FULL TERM! In fact, we really are right now, but how many baby's are actually born on their due date, or early? I know some are, but I am not holding my breath. Besides, I am actually kind of happy he/she is still in there--holding out for a bit longer!
I am definitely going to miss being pregnant with this child. I was telling Carl the other night how thankful I am that I can honestly say I have LOVED every minute (thus far) of being pregnant. I feel great, and have done everything that I normally would have done before being pregnant (sans alcohol and a few other things). This baby has already been a real blessing to me, and although I am excited to hold and love on him/her...at the same time I feel like I could spend the rest of my life content just to be pregnant with this baby (check back in in the next month and see if it is still the case). As much as I love being pregnant though, I really am on a time crunch to get this baby out before October 4th...or at the latest October 7th. To be able to bring my precious little one to the Atlantic Ocean for the first time when they are so little--would be AWESOME! Hopefully he/she will love the ocean and cherish the time spent at the beach with family as much as his/her mommy does! There is just nothing quite like the beach!
We'll see how the rest of this story plays out, and what we can/can not do after the baby is born. I am praying that my hormones will level back out quickly after the baby is born, and that I will not be to upset that I am no longer pregnant!
Carl leaves for out of town business tomorrow--and doesn't come back until Wednesday! I told him that it definitely (if I can help it) isn't going to come while he is gone--however anything after that point is FAIR GAME! We'll see what day this little one chooses for his/her birthday!
