What lovely timing it would have been for baby boy to come this weekend—and he did not. I may have even "dropped by" the hospital just to see if I had progressed at all and if they would want to admit me because I was sooo dilated. Turns out I hadn't changed since my appointment last week even with all the contractions I've had and a good, long outing to IKEA. Now, I think baby's destined to arrive Christmas Eve (absolute worst timing) but I really just hope he'll hold off for a good 10 days (and then I'll deliver a 9 lb baby!) Oh it's not at all about what I want though is it?
We did get some fun family time in this weekend indulging in cupcakes from the Sweet Tooth Fairy and getting letters sent off to Santa at IKEA. I love that Olivia told me to write that she wants a new Barbie and a fancy outfit—just like her cool big sis. So cute how much Livs wants to be just like Cares :) And Bentley wants Legos and Hot Wheels—plain and simple and the same wishes he's had for like 3 years now. Love that too.

I have two good friends that were born on Christmas Day, and neither one is the oldest either, so there was definitely some juggling at home with older siblings and still celebrating. Such a joyous day/time of year, whenever he comes, it will be so wonderful and exciting.
I'm still rooting for the 22nd! :)
I'm rooting for tonight! And no, sadly, it is not all about you although it should be after all the discomfort of the last 9 months. Take care, sweet girl!
I love Heidi's comment...he will be welcome whenever he comes. You are totally prepared so it will all work out and if he comes on Christmas Day, we will have even more to celebrate.
So nervous for you! Can't wait to see when this little man decides to make his dramatic entrance!
