The Waiting Game...


We can finally say we are on the home stretch...and we are SO READY!!! My poor husband can't sleep anymore because everytime I move, he wakes up and says, "Is the baby coming?!" It is getting harder for me to move around, but I feel fantastic. I have more energy than I did a few weeks ago, and no more back pain:) With my due date on Monday, the baby could come any day now, and I have started some pre-labor symptoms.
We had a few days of frantically running around getting Gabe a phone(his died at this very inconvenient time;), finding a video camera so we can capture the first days of our babies life, and selling my car and looking for a new one that is safer for the baby(mine was on the brink of death). The fam has all submitted their guesses of what the baby will be, when it will come, and how much it will weigh...the guesses have been nothing short of comic relief for me. I am now left to the longest days of my life awaiting the birth of our little Gabe or little Anna. Prayers are needed to prepare us for what is to come no matter what-so please don't forget to toss up a few or more;) We know that whatever He has coming is what is the best possible thing for us. Hopefully, you will be hearing so me good news soon! Until then I remain a beached whale....

  3. Anna, one of these days, we will talk instead of leaving messages or posting comments on eachother's blogs. You look amazing and so beautiful! I can feel your excitement. Please count on our prayers for you and know I think of you often, especially when I am waddling around and getting up 4 times a night. I will try to call you again soon!
