T minus any day now...

It's the waiting game! (:

Nicholas and I are currently staying with his parents in Joliet, IL, until D-Day, by our midwife's request. Had one of our last checkups yesterday, and the baby's head is in the birth canal. We are go for launch! We just don't know exactly when launch is yet, haha! The midwife says that any day now could be the day. Could be tonight, tomorrow, two weeks from now, anytime.

Nick is working hard every night, and we are slowly getting accustomed to the new schedule.

Sorry the update is so short, but there is not much to tell just yet. All is going well, and we are SO EXCITED to meet our little girl!!!!


Love. (:

Contractions Are Fun.

Just kidding. They're terrible. Not fun at all. But I think that if the right people were here right now, I could be having a lot of fun. Mostly because I slept about a grand total of two hours last night. I get really painful contractions every time I lie down. So I don't lie down. They subside/cease when I stand up, walk around, sit. Anything that's not lying down, and I feel much better. BUT. Sleep is supposed to happen WHEN YOU'RE LYING DOWN. So please, please, if you have a heart, pray that I can get some sleep. I would love to lie down again. The real kicker is that I don't even know if these are real contractions or Braxton Hicks/false labor. Who knows for sure.

On a happy note, my sister gave birth (albeit prematurely) to healthy twin girls yesterday! Yay! We are very happy that everyone is doing so well, and it sounds like we will continue to have good reports. (:

More praises: We have been blessed with a car to use, and a much better job for Nicholas! He is starting work today, and will make more than he did before, which is great! Praise the Lord for His provision! We are so grateful and thrilled. Nicholas will be working nights, so during the day our little family will be home together. I am thinking that there will be a designated family "naptime", about which I am very excited. (: Everyone sleep!



That's enough for now. I'm going to pee for the thousandth time.
