The Last Day

Well, it has officially been my last day of pregnancy number three.  I am done.  Yay!  Tomorrow, I will have a new baby.  All of the sudden I am feeling very unsure.  I am definitely ready to be done being pregnant but I am feeling a little crazed about the idea of a little person who takes so much work.  Sometimes, I wonder what I was thinking.  I am trying to think back on the good things and forget about the sleepless nights, constant feeding and diaper changing, and lugging the car seat that weighs more than I do around.  Not to mention the fact that I have a good 70 pounds to lose.  yIkEs!

I am being induced at noon.  If all goes well I bet our baby will be here by four or five.  It took three hours from the time they broke my water with Eli so I'm hoping this will be as painless and fast.  The unfortunate thing about all of this is that my poor husband started a new job last week and works the night shift.  So, tonight he works until 7 am and then has to be up and ready to take me to the hospital at 11ish.  He's going to be one exhausted guy.  Hopefully he can sneak a few minutes of sleep while I am hanging around the labor room.  I just can't believe this is real.  I know I've done it before but I still dread the misery of the hospital birthing room and the horrible recovery process afterwards.


On a more positive note...  My little guy had his first day of school today.  He was so big and so cute and he loved it.  I have some great pics I'll post later.  I can't believe that my Eli guys is already big enough for preschool.  He looked so amazingly cute sitting in the little chairs singing about fish and whales.  Time sneaks by so quickly and my little children that I still call babies aren't so babish anymore.  I just love them so much.  They make my life happy.  That folks is what I'll try to hold onto instead of the nervousness I feel.
