Hmmph. Whoever said that apparently wasn't an overdue pregnant woman. And he probably wasn't talking to one either or he likely would have gotten a punch in the nose.
Ok. It's only been a day past my date, and I am trying HARD not to get antsy. But Stephen decided to take off work the last two days to be a help here at home, and now I feel like we're just waiting. Like everybody is just waiting on me...as if I have some control over this. Even the three year old is demanding to know when her sister is going to come out.
I'd like to keep busy, but there is no baseball this weekend due to the holiday, and I don't want to stray too far from home either. The laundry is all done - except for the load of sheets in the dryer - and I did the cleaning earlier this week. I'm being told to relax, but it's hard to do at the moment.
So Stephen has gone to the store for a propane tank refill for the grill and some burgers and veggies for dinner. And after dinner we're going to do a family movie night and introduce the kids to an old Disney favorite - Blackbeard's Ghost.
We do have a wedding to go to tomorrow, but somehow I had it in my head that we wouldn't get to go as, surely, I'd be in L & D by that point. Well, we'll see. Maybe I'll get all dolled-up for the wedding and instead get to birth this girl with hair and makeup done.
So that's all there is to report. Or rather all there isn't.

Ahhh... I'm sorry! I know that feeling well. I LOVE "Blackbeards Ghost" and I grew up watching that as a kid. Have you seen "The Barefoot Exectutive"? That is a favorite too! You are on the right track though, one of the suggestions of how to start labor is to watch a funny movie and laugh a lot....maybe tonight? :) So excited for you guys and hope that she comes soon!
I'm voting for the dolled-up delivery! So sorry you're still waiting. The good news is that she can't possibly wait too much longer! Hang in there, friend.
