No baby...everyone relax ;)

I should know better than to get my hopes up things would happen quickly...after all, I've done this before, and if there's one thing my body doesn't do when it comes to having children, it's "quickly."

The funny thing is how psychological this whole thing is. I'm not due until October 1st. But as soon as my doctor says those magic words "It could happen..." all reason shuts off, and the countdown begins. After Thursday, my internal clock started shrieking, "OVERDUE! OVERDUE!" Too bad that internal clock can't trigger labor ;) I really can't and shouldn't complain, I know that. This last little bit turns into a giant whine-fest, and I'm trying like crazy to keep that all to a minimum...at least what I vocalize.

But there's some good that's come with this possibility of unpredictability. I got motivated again! I got all of our papers filed (this has been needing to be done since April), my craft room cleaned out (ahhhh!), and today, I'm planning on finishing our giant family magnet board...it's awesome, at least in my head it's awesome, we'll see how it turns out.

For now I'm enjoying the peace and quiet that accompany 3 am postings, laundry and contractions strong enough to keep you awake, but too wussy to actually do any good.
