So, today I
am officially 36 weeks and 5 days pregnant. Tuesday was my appointment with my
trusty OB-GYN. Much to my surprise, I am dilated 2cm and 70% effaced. How cool
is that?! We are already making a little progress and getting this show on the
road!
Since that
appointment, Joseph asks me periodically if I’m in labor. Silly man. That’s
just one of the countless reasons I love him so much. Aside from that, he sent
me home early the other day with orders to put my feet up. I loved the sound of
that idea, but it didn’t actually pan out. I did go home, but I did everything
aside from putting my feet up. I even had dinner ready before he made it home!
It’s so weird to think that this time next month
I will have a beautiful little creature with me; a tiny baby that will need me
each and every moment of the day. Oh, it just lights up my heart to think about
this. Although I already know I will utterly miss the pregnancy, I am anxiously
looking forward to meeting Emma Claire and watching as her personality shines
through. I wonder what she’ll be like, how she may look, the facial expressions
she’ll share with me… so many other things, too! I can’t help but to smile as I
think about sharing our lives with our daughter and sharing her life with so
many around us. Needless to say, I have an abundance of things to look forward
to.
