still waiting...

 Yes I'm still here and STILL in one piece.
Unfortunately.
I don't know why I tell myself I'm gonna go early every time,
because it almost never happens (ryder was the only one early).
I was having contractions all last week and every day I thought
was the day.
But it wasn't and I'm still here, pregnant.
I hate to complain, 
but the last 2 weeks of pregnancy are a KILLER!
Everything hurts, nothing fits, and my brain does weird things.
And I don't even want to see anyone because all I get is the
"you haven't had that baby yet" look,
 and all those lovely comments.
I have no sympathy for my mom who had all her babies 2-4 weeks early.
Why couldn't I inherit that awesome gene?
I guess it's my fault for getting my hopes up. 
I still have 3 more days till my due date and soo anxious
to get this show on the road.
I've tried everything to try to induce labour 
(except castor oil - yuk!)
but nothing works.
I guess we'll just have to wait for this stubborn little guy to decide he's ready to join us.
Until then, I'll be an emotional, uncomfortable, frustrated pregnant lady.




This was the kids and I
the day before maysa

Crazy what 4 years can do!
