Patience is not a Virtue that I have been blessed with...







Here I am, still pregnant, and over my due date! It makes me nervous as each day passes. I find myself worried about homework, even though I've done a good job of staying ahead, and making sure the car seat is properly installed. Not to mention, I'm still working!! Who does that!?

My son has been in California with his grandma for a little over a week. I want him back!! But she won't come up until I go into labor!! I keep telling Jackson (the little boy in my belly) that we need his brother back up here so he needs to hurry up and get out so we can all go home :) Apparently, he isn't as excited as I am and likes the way I feed him. Oy...

So, everyone thinks I'm crazy for still working even though I'm over 40 weeks pregnant. I have to remind them that I'm in the military, unless the doctor specifically tells me that I can not work I'm still working until I have the baby. Which, I sit at a desk and process paperwork so it's not like it's a huge strain on me.

Let's see...I have tried almost everything to get this little guy to come out. And let me tell you...those old wives tales just are not working in my favor.
Things that didn't work for me:
-Eating a lot of fresh pineapple
-Going on long walks up hill
-Drinking a lot of grapefruit juice
-Having the husband rub my feet
-Eating a huge breakfast and going for a walk
-Climbing stairs
-Having someone scare me
-Eating at a buffet
-Drinking A LOT of water

I'm usually one who can see or plan my future pretty far in advance, I like to plan...I hate supries, however I can't get see past my History test today and having a baby. Homework and baby. Maybe I need to take my History test and then re-visit some old wives tales! I'll keep you posted, hopefully the next time I blog it will be a very exciting story like how I drank chocolate milk and my water broke. Or maybe it will be another list of failure...let's hope for the first idea. Fingers crossed!
