Happy 40 weeks! :) Oh the emotional roller coaster I have been on this past week. I've been (impatiently) waiting on this boy to make some sort of move to show that he is, in fact, coming. And let me tell you, I am trying all the tricks. Cajun seasoning on everything, bouncing and rocking on my exercise ball, walks with Andrew; you name it, I've tried it. I guess my little man is just too happy and content to move on down though.
I had a bit of a break down last night due to the frustration and just tiredness I feel. I have been so blessed with such an amazing pregnancy. I'm 9 months pregnant and still able to go about my day like nothing's different. However, I'm 9 months pregnant and it's taking a toll on my body and brain. So, I just got so weepy last night. Once again, Andrew saved the day. After holding me for a good half hour and reassuring me how strong and beautiful I am (God bless him) he told me he needed to go fix his tail light. When he came back in a little bit later he asked me to go pick a movie for us to watch upstairs. When he called me back to ask a question, I see a huge bouquet of pink, red, and white roses with Pringles and chocolate. Somehow he picked up me whining about my craving for Pringles in the middle of my sobs and went to go get them all for me.
Husband of the year!? Uh, yeah!!!! He has kept me sane throughout this pregnancy, and I'm so blessed to have him as my partner in all this.
I woke up this morning with a new sense of peace. After praying/sobbing/begging God for some relief, He gave it to me. (As always!) I realized how truly blessed I am that I get to experience the privilege of carrying Jack. My biggest problem is that my baby boy is fully developed and healthy and just wants to hang in there a little while longer. What a beautiful problem to have.
So here we are, 40 weeks pregnant and probably still goin another week. God's timing has always been much better then my own. I trust in Jesus and His plan for me and this baby. That's all there is to it!
