January Absense and No Baby!

Sorry for the absence of blog posts lately- I have not been interested in doing anything lately. 

We are expecting our first baby, our precious little baby girl.  I have been eagerly anticipating her arrival.  At the beginning of January I was a little stressed; I was sick and everything wasn't ready.  Our nursery wasn't done, Christmas wasn't put away, my hospital bag was not fully packed, we didn't have a car seat.  I thought she was coming any day and I wanted to be prepared. However we have finally reached my due date (TODAY- January 30) and still no baby (I am beginning to be over prepared and I am going a little crazy).  The doctor said he didn't want me to go past two weeks- so we have scheduled an induction (Feb 8)- hopefully she will come on her own before then.

Many of my friends and a cousin all have a due date within a week of mine- this made the second trimester of pregnancy kind of fun- swapping stories, good and bad.  Now everyone has their baby EXCEPT me; People who's babies were due after mine even have their babies and no, they are not skinny premies, they are beautiful, plump and already out.  I know I should not be bitter about this fact; maybe I have a late bloomer, maybe she will be EXTRA healthy, maybe she is getting her beauty sleep and will come out the best and most beautiful baby of all, or maybe she is just lazy and content (which seems like it runs in the family).

So I figure I need to be less lazy and content (give her a good example) and get MORE done- so here I am, ranting about my unfair life and blogging about January.  Pray that I have her soon or you will hear me ranting about February also.
