Waiting Game...

I find that this point is the most difficult. Everything is ready, his room, his clothes, everything. I'm having contractions. Sometimes fairly hard and regular. And then, they peter out into nothing. And of course we've tried all the home remedies for getting labor going. Before this is all over I'm going to need a new pair of shoes from walking. I could be sitting her three weeks from now waiting...or he could be here tonight! Why on earth do they tell pregnant women that. I think it's mean!!!!
I'm so ready to hold my little man. If he comes now then I won't have to get a new dress for my sister's vow renewal. However, if he lingers then I have to go to the outlet mall and get something that will cover my massive girth on Saturday. I'd much rather wear what I already have and save the money.
Grasshopper please won't you come??? By the way...we've passed my original due date on Sunday. Please pray for us but don't pray for patience, pray for DELIVERANCE!!! Mommy just can't take it and AJ keeps asking if we forgot to get him out last night because he wants to come to the hospital and see the new baby.
