...39, 40...


This is me on my due date. 40 weeks exactly!


And I'm alive, typing this two days later, on the other side of 40 weeks...

And being SO patient and NOT complaining!

Really though, I can't complain. I feel pretty good, considering the circumstances, and Ben and I are living up our last days together of just the two of us (I'll blog about that later).


Next time I blog, I will be typing on the other side of motherhood...instead of the expectant side!

Meanwhile, I'll patiently wait to kiss his soft cheeks and stroke his dark hair (at least I'm betting on some hair).

I can't get over how incredible you look for 40 weeks. You don't look like you've gained an ounce anywhere but your belly! We're keeping our fingers crossed that he comes soon.

You look great! I can't wait to see pictures of the little guy. I'm getting antsy waiting to hear if you've had him yet. What's he waiting for? :)

Just wanted to be the first to congratulate you of the birth of your baby boy! I saw the blue balloons on your parents and Ben's mail box this morning!!! I am tickled with excitement for you and Ben. Can't wait for the pictures.

Hey Girl I can't wait any longer. You must have had him by now. Hope it went great. Can't wait to see him. Best wishes being a mom. The first few weeks were really hard for me but they got better. Hopefully you're doing amazing but if not, it will get better.
