Baby Eleanor is due July 15. At the latest she'll be here by July 22nd (my doctor will induce me-at my insistence-at 41 weeks). So here are a few things I look forward to doing:
Sleeping on my back
Laying on my stomach
Sleeping on my back
Twisting from side to side to pop my back
Sleeping on my back
Not grunting to put on my shoes or do anything involving my feet
Sleeping on my back
Holding our baby (instead of feeling her kick me in the ribs or punch my bladder)
Waiting more than 40 minutes to go to the bathroom
Sleeping on my back
Holding our baby
It's like a bad poem, but I think you get the idea. I know that there will be a lot of new challenges, but I like to look for the "silver lining," as my mother would say. You know, when the sun is behind the clouds, you may be sunshine-less, but it lights up the back of the clouds so they look lined with silver or gold. I think the greatest silver lining will be holding Eleanor, though sleeping on my back will be a very, very close second!
THAT IS WHEN YOU GET TO SLEEP :O)
