Still Pregnant

Tomorrow i'll be 39 weeks. Yippie!! But my hips are telling me they would like it to be 40 weeks at the very least... I was sure that today - the date i so vividly dreamt about would be it and i'd have a new baby to cuddle this weekend but no. I was mistaken. :(

So tomorrow is my last scheduled day of work and I'm looking forward to either having a day or two to prepare at home or just to bring home a new baby next week.
Think labor thoughts for me so we can bring this little guy into the world. His big brother is beside himself wanting to meet him!

The Economy Sucks

I found out yesterday that i am one of 5 people in our 16 person office that is being laid off.

Being 16 days away from my due date i had to keep a level head yesterday because i thought the shock of it all would send me into labor!

Still pregnant and hanging in there. I wish we could afford for me to stay home but it isn't feasible and i think that sucks.

Please think good thoughts for me as i start to look for something new to start in January after a few weeks of leave at home with the new baby!

Happy October!

I love October. It used to signal the start of Fall, changing leaves and school time. Since i live in an area that doesn't really get all 4 seasons its not quite the same as when i was growing up. Especially today where the high temperature will be 101 degrees. Only 2 or 3 above normal for this time of year. Ick.
The only good part about October in the Southwest is that come Halloween you don't have to worry about the kids freezing in their costumes because by the end of the month i bet we will still be in the mid 80's.
In baby news it's 3 weeks or less until D day and i'm really hoping that after my check up tomorrow my Doc will tell me something wonderful like - Oh yeah this one will definitely be early...
For the sake of my back and my dear hubby having to listen to me snore recently i hope this baby is earlier than later!!!
