Hurry Up and Wait!

Here it is the beginning of August. We are finally 9(10) months pregnant. Will can come at anytime and we will be thrown into parenthood. We feel like we can't wait for him to get here but, we have to wait just a little longer. For the past few weeks Mike and I have talked about how we are so ready to see Will, and even how I am ready to not be pregnant anymore, but we have also tried to focus on enjoying each other for these last few weeks. I have to brag on him, he has been so good to me during this pregnancy. He has doted on me, and not let me lift a finger. He reads all the pregnancy books with me and has even gone to every doctor's appointment. We have our next appointment on Wednesday of this week. I will now be going once a week, which makes sense, because we are four weeks away from the due date.
I started school today. It was so good to see all of my friends and to work in my library. It really gave me a sense of purpose to be working and not laying on the couch watching TLC and Jon and Kate re-runs. I was really surprised to come home and find out how tired I was. I haven't been sleeping well at night, and I did not sleep well last night. In fact, Mike had me take a nap when I got home from school because he knew I didn't sleep well. I can honestly say that I am tired right now and am looking forward to a good night's sleep, or as good as it can be at 9(10) months pregnant!
My 36 week belly
Last week, our friends Todd and Lori Magouyrk had their son Henry Monroe. We were so excited to go and visit them in the hospital and celebrate their new little boy. He is so cute and tiny and I enjoyed getting to rock him for awhile so that Lori could eat dinner. Todd and Mike go way back. They went to opposing high schools, but played East Cobb baseball together for several summers. These two are tight friends, but very competitive. They have had fun for nine months talking smack about whose son will be the better ball player and so on. I think that Lori and I just hope that Will and Henry can grow up to be good friends like their daddies, not who will strike out who or have the highest batting average! Anyways, welcome Henry. We look forward to watching you grow up!
