this morning

I’ve actually been waking up at decent times lately.  Today I was up at 6:30, thanks to my cat who was continuously howling that he just had to go outside. I know that’s not all that early, but it is for me at this stage in pregnancy.
I don’t mind at all.  Sam heard me get up or something because he came out all sleepy eyed and smiling.  He’s sitting here enjoying some Blue’s Clues on Netflix.  I’m sitting here enjoying him squished up against me. 

Today is Ryan’s birthday and it just so happens that he isn’t on the schedule at work today.  What an awesome birthday present!  that just makes it an even better day to have a baby.  Plus, my nose is completely dried out.  I don’t know why this is a sign of approaching labor but for me, but it is.  I guess, at this point, however, everything is a sign of approaching labor.  I’m now past my due date.  Labor is coming.

My husband doesn’t know how old he’s turning (34 by the way).  Every year it’s the same thing.  He always thinks he’s a year younger or a year older.  It cracks me up when he gets it wrong, then stops, and gets a look on his face and says, How old am I turning again?

You know they let him fly helicopters, right?  There are a lot of numbers and calculations involved in that.  The man can’t even remember his own age but he makes an exceptional pilot.

Funny.

Last night I had a dream I had the baby.  It was a little boy and I passed out during labor and didn’t wake up until after the birth.  The baby was really chubby, but the right size for a newborn. 

Except he was walking already and saying Mama and carrying around Hot Wheels cars.

Ryan told me yesterday that he had to run to Lowe’s this morning.  I’m going with him. 
He said we’ll run laps around the store if we have to.  He really wants the baby to be born today.

Well, he can run laps all he wants.  I’ll sit down, enjoy a water, and laugh the baby out.
