Wanting to go into labor
Praying to go into labor
A week of sleep-deprivation due to contractions, restless legs, and nesting
Vacuuming underneath the furniture
Having long discussions with the baby about how nice it would be if he would decide to see the outside world TODAY... really baby, it might be very noisy out here, but there is MUCH more room to move around!
Long walks down a country road while herding toddlers
Taking long hot baths
power vacuuming
power mopping
power window washing
power dancing
Laughing so hard your insides hurt (thanks Mary Anne and Anette!)
ENORMOUS amounts of adrenaline coursing through your body after what looked like a major head injury to Aggie (she is fine!)
Running full speed through a parking lot in a thunderstorm (after eating too much fried onion!)
Watching MICHIGAN STATE clobber UCONN! Whoo hooo! (During the game even Marcus learned how to say "they're going DOWN" ...of course it sounds more like "GO DOWN!"
So as you can see, we are still waiting. It is nice to know that we will not have to wait any longer than this wednesday (the 8th) when I will be induced. In the meantime, we are enjoying our oddly quiet house... the 3 older children left with Grammy Pammy and Bump for vacation early this morning! It has been a fun day so far spoiling our little Marcus, babying the baby who will not get to be the baby much longer!
PS I can't wait to see you mom!!!!

OH Emily! I had to laugh out loud when reading your blog!!!! It is SO TRUE!!!!!! NONE of those things work! I would also like to add the "unmentionable" (which got us into this in the first place), getting a massage and pushing on pressure points, weather pressure changes or eating spicy foods. Guess it should just show us that these babies come when THEY'RE ready! Praying for you!!!
