Waiting Game

So this has been a very long month already...you know the saying " a watched pot never boils" ...I am waiting every day for the new baby to be born but he/she must be very comfortable just where he or she is.  I have had so many false alarms that now I am just nearly giving up.  The funny part is my due date is not really until July 19, tomorrow...but in my head this one should be born around the same time as Roxanna so in that case I'm over 2 weeks late!!

So we spend the days doing errands, going on small walks, watching TV and enjoying Roxanna. Perhaps I should consider it a blessing, this baby is giving me a couple of weeks of uninterrupted Roxanna time.  Gary is teaching her lacrosse, I'm teaching her to bake and she is learning to take care of her new baby doll...

  1. Wow! she seems to have grown in just the time frame between your last post! How cool she gets to experience this with you. Even if she's too little to remember it, I believe emotionally she will.

    By now I'm sure you've delivered. How is she doing sharing her momma for the first time? How are You doing?

    I haven't read your older posts save the last one I commented on. I wasn't even supposed to be here. I was looking on the web for something else. But your writing style is unique. Intriguing. Like talking to an old friend so of course I've been totally absorbed.

    Still, I'm on a time-limit. And though I must leave to finish my search I felt compelled to see how, a year + later you and your little one were doing with the transition. Only to find you're right where you were when I found your first post!

    So thanks a lot for sucking me in to your world - twice ;-)~

    I'm sure if not positive your hands will be much too full to even extend your fingers far enough to touch the keyboard for any extended period, at least for a while. And as much as I miss your posts already, I'm oddly happy that you, a stranger to me, but a sister too as we all share the same sky, are able to again relive the joys of motherhood.

    My body, fate, or lack of trying have kept me from experiencing the same and at my age, the probability of ever doing so is getting less and less. But it doesn't stop me from enjoying your joy.

    Thank you again for sharing. Did you have a boy or a girl?
