March

Tanner's been asking me for a few days now when it was going to be "March." This morning, he was playing a game at the computer while I fixed breakfast.

Me: "Guess what, buddy ... "

Tanner: "What?"

Me: "Today is March!"

Tanner: (wish you could see the look of sheer joy and shock on his face) "Kellen's coming today?!!!"

Me: "Probably not today, buddy, but anytime ..."

These boys are so excited for the littlest guy to make his entrance -- they make it so much fun for me! Today was my weekly appt (38wks 2 days). I haven't made much progress since last week. Still 1-2 cm dilated, 60-70% effaced. No signs that this baby is in a hurry to arrive, which is quite alright with me. I'm still feeling relatively good, and am enjoying my huge ice cream sundaes every night without having to feel guilty about them just yet :) And also enjoying the calm before the storm -- my nerves about having a brand new baby to take care of are just starting to kick in. I feel like these last weeks are exhausting, mostly due to the anxiety of wondering EXACTLY when the baby will come, where will I be, how long will labor last, will our help be available, etc. Thank goodness I'm too tired at night once my head finally hits the pillow to lay awake worrying about it all! LOL!!

I'll keep you posted on any new developments!!
