Due!

This tank top used to fit me... Anyways, I'm 40 weeks!  This baby is due today!  I'm doubting that she will arrive today, unless I have a spontaneous fluid burst...  Doesn't Darrell lil head look cute in the corner of the picture?  I've been trying everything this past week to get things rolling.  I've been sitting on an exercise ball for hours at a time - it's supposed to encourage the baby to lower into the pelvis.  If I could walk this baby out, she would be here by now.  I go to the doctor tomorrow.  I doubt there's been much change but I'm hoping so!  My last official day of work was Friday.  What a good feeling to walk out of there, thinking the next time I'd return will be in late September.  But... if the doctor doesn't have any promising news for me tomorrow I'll probably pick up a few four hour shifts this week.  Sitting around the house is driving me crazy!  Yesterday I got this urge to shop for myself.  Other than maternity clothes, I haven't been able to buy any cute spring/summer clothes for myself this year.  It's so hard to buy when I have no idea what size I will be this summer... or better yet when I will return to my pre-pregnancy bod.  I hope I'm really motivated to lose the baby weight, because I know I'll feel crappy about myself if I don't.

Reasons why this baby should arrive today:
- she's due.  And I like things to be done when they're supposed to be done.
- my stretch mark prevention lotion ran out today (no stretch marks on this bod - boo yea!)
- my prenatal vitamins are almost gone
- I'm done with work
- I don't want my children to have to share a birthday.  (Darrell's is July 1).

This weekend has been very strange.  Mike and I had nothing planned.  We thought for sure we'd have a baby by now.  Today we celebrated Father's Day by going out to breakfast.  We are spending the day doing chores and home improvement projects.  Mike and our friend Doug are installing a ceiling fan in the baby's room which is turning out to be a major ordeal.  It's making me a little nervous that there are tools laying everywhere, but they hope to be done today.  Darrell and baby bought Mike this sweet bike jersey for Father's Day:

Not much else to report.  I'll update tomorrow after the doctor.  Unless I'm at the hospital...  :)
