Still here

Every morning at work, this is what I am greeted with: "Oh, you're still here, huh?"

Yup, still here!  You would think that with my eagerness and anxiety and impatience that I have past my due date.  Nope!  So technically, I need to give this little guy a break.  He still gets a few more days to stay where he's most comfortable, until I start eating habaneros and going for 25-mile walks.

My work peeps have been so great and supportive.  The nurses that I work with take my blood pressure if I'm feeling weird (or bored) and have even offered to fetch the hot towels should I want them to attempt an in-office delivery.  They tell me what I want to hear and I'm sure they wouldn't let me stay in the bathroom stall very long, if I was to get stuck in there (these stalls are not very big...its a surprise I am able to maneuver in and out of them at this point). 

I have been annoyingly anxious, and I find that when Mike doesn't give in to my pity parties, the crazier I get.  UNTIL I found this quote (on Pinterest, of course!): Have you prayed about it as much as you have talked about it?  Errrrr no, you got me...so I am trying to take that new approach.  Turn my anxious thoughts into prayers and not babble on and on about how uncomfortable I am and how ready I am for the pregnancy chapter to come to a close. 



This weekend, I plan to:

Make lemon-mint jello
Buy a hanging flower basket for my front porch
Nap
Make an audition tape for The Mindy Project (I just LOVE that show!!!!)
