And the wait continues...

The idea is that we will post about all sorts of things that are going on in our lives but right now it's hard to think about anything else other than "when the hell is this kid coming out of me?"
At this point I am 5 days past my due date. She was due 4/1 but I guess she decided to play a little April Fool's on us and keep us waiting.
I keep explaining to friends that it feels like we've been preparing for the big earthquake that is never really going to happen. We've taken all the preparation classes, we've got all the supplies, we know the signs to look for, but really, in the end, it's not *actually* going to happen.
But people who have had kids keep telling me that she is indeed coming. And when I explained to my mother recently how it's strange to be sitting around all day just waiting for her to come she told me that very soon I will be wishing I had one of these quiet days alone to myself. The reality is I only really stopped working last week on my due date (yes, I have workaholic tendencies) and even then I've been checking email.
And so, the wait continues...
