Any day now...however....

I am about 39 weeks along now and I am so done with being pregnant. Let's move on now already!!! Although, I'd rather wait to have her come next Saturday...Kent has the opportunity to get some great overtime at work and I mean GREAT, so if she could just delay her entrance into the world until next Saturday or after that, then that would be great for us, hehe.

My official due date is the 28th, but I've been feeling like this could happen anytime. I actually went out yesterday to this hill by our house and went up and and down it a bunch of times. I ran up the hill half way but then was wiped. I realized that if I want this baby to stay put for a few more days I probably shouldn't do that. Yes I had contractions for a while after that little event. I have been swimming a bunch also, but as the time grows nearer, I fear that maybe I shouldn't be swimming anymore until after the baby comes. I don't want to go into labor in the pool or leak anything fun, I know the people at the pool would really love that and really appreciate me...not. So, I'm taking it easy, although I have the urge to workout, I want that overtime haha!!

I've been cleaning our home like there is no tomorrow. I think I'm driving my family crazy. Cooking is the total opposite. If you know me, you know I love to cook. But not lately. It's like my brain has drawn a complete blank and I can not for the life of me think of things to make and so I don't. My poor family. We've been eating some pretty simple meals. Simple as in cereal. Or eggs. Or smoothies.... Okay, maybe more than just that, but sometimes that is all I have the energy to pull together. I can't wait to get my creativity back. I'm sure my family feels the same way.

I feel very large, but not as large as when I was pregnant with Chloe, so that is a good thing I think. I probably feel as large as any woman who is almost 10 months pregnant. What's with the whole 9 months pregnant thing??? I don't even want to talk about that.

I miss Tony Horton. For those of you non p90X-ers, he was my full time trainer before baby Luci and I hope to hire him again after she arrives. He's great and I miss all of the silly things he would say to me while we would work out together everyday. Okay, not personally, but on dvd. Although I felt like he was right there. I also want a rowing machine. I'll look into that....and I'm not planning to train for a marathon this time, but who knows how my crazy mind will go after I shed this suit. I'm ready though, but not until after next Saturday. Luci stay put, mama wants that overtime check!

Okay well that's about it for now, the girls are doing good and ready to meet their "so called sister". I say that because we've been talking about this baby who will be coming, but has yet to prove to her sisters that she is really coming. I keep telling them that my tummy wouldn't be this big if they weren't getting a sister soon, but I think they're starting think their mama is crazy. Yes I am. I've accepted that. I think I get crazier with each child. Oh well, I own it.

Will post soon about Luci's grand entrance, lets just hope it's non-eventful and quick. Yes QUICK, PLEASE! The last two were so long, please let this be quick. We live 2 minutes from the hospital, so it's okay if it's quick. Funny thing, this hospital presents the new parents with a steak dinner after the birth, I thought that was funny. How formal. All I wanted after Chloe was born was a milkshake!

Okay, stay tuned!
