Showering

One of my best friends in the whole world is having a baby. Just four years ago we were listening to Portuguese marching bands and hopping random trains to Amsterdam, and now we’re both going to be parents. Crap. I fear for the future.

With the help of the wonderful Kristi Kay and my gorgeous mother-in-law, I threw a ducky themed baby shower (based off this shower on Hostess with the Mostess) for my dear Abbie this past weekend. After the guests had left, I took some quick photos of Abbs with her big ole belly. Taking pictures at events like these always makes me yearn for a new lens. One that possibly doesn’t suck and that can actually handle high exposure. The grass is always greener, I suppose.

Nope

No baby, and no scheduled induction until next Wednesday. If you’re calling my phone it is off because I literally can’t deal with having to tell yet another person that she’s not here and probably won’t be here for another week.

Due Date

Stubborn girl. Grrr…

You’ve Got to be Kidding Me!!!

OK, now I’m starting to get a little pissy…for the past three weeks I’ve been sitting around, waiting for this little girl to make her first appearance. She has had the wonderful intention of making everyone happy (she gets that from me) and has waited to be born until after some people’s final exams, some people’s graduations, weddings, business trips and high school reunions. Either she really wants to make sure that everyone who may want to be present will be there, or she is just taking a really warm nap (she gets that from Trent). I can just see her now, sleeping soundly, almost starting to wake up and then she thinks, “nah, it’s just so warm in here. I think I’ll stay for a while.”

And to top it all off those damn celebrity babies are popping out all over the place. Not only did they steal my pregnancy thunder, now they’re beating me to the punch. How am I supposed to make millions on the first (very anticipated) photos of my baby when Shiloh and Kingston are taking all of the attention?! I wonder if I’m going to hear a nice speach from my mother on how nice those names are and how they don’t at all sound Mexican?

Last Day

Today is my last day of work until I return from maternity leave. I was hoping by this time I would actually HAVE A BABY, but, oh well. The time will come soon enough. Actually, it will never be soon enough!

So now the world must get ready for me to begin posting about the joys of parenthood. Diapers, burb pads, strange secretions…and not just secretions coming from my body, but from a whole other human!

Lucky, lucky you.
