The Agonizing Last Week...I'm almost there.


A lot of people have emailed and asked me to send them a picture of my big ol' belly. I am 39 weeks...only 1 week to go! As much as I want this child out every single day, I am trying to remember that this pregnancy has been a true miracle for us and I should be taking in every last minute of it. Who knows when I'll be pregnant again! And seriously, forgetting about the last few weeks of irritability, so so swollen feet, ankles, fingers, excruciatingly painful tendinitis in both wrists, heart palpitations that just about make me pass out, peeing every hour on the hour, crying at Pedigree commercials and all that fun stuff, this pregnancy really hasn't been too much trouble at all!

It will be just under 3 years when he is born from the time we tried to conceive him, so I have said it before and I'll say it again --this pregnancy and baby are the answer to a lot of prayers from this mommy and daddy to-be.

So hopefully the next post you get from me will be of Ralph and I holding our little boy.

Becky!! When I noticed you and I both had a "wha?!" moment with Walker's Facebook status it reminded me I have not been in touch with you lately! My mind started reeling - "has she had the baby?! how is she feeling?!" and I planned to touch base this VERY evening to see how you were doing. Mystery solved. One week to go. I can't WAIT to hear the updates. You are going to be such an incredible mom!
