Will Leo have been right all along? Perhaps this kid is very much a daddy's boy and looking to please from the start by arriving on St. Pat's. Another 24 hours will tell.
We were discussing which part of labor will be the hardest. I'm thinking this part is! The waiting is tough. (As you all know too I think!) Not only because it is physically rough, but you have so much more time to think about things. Yeah, some days I feel good about the extra time and use it to learn something new or get closer to finishing a book (or this puzzle that has been sitting on our dining room table for weeks). But for the most part, the more time to wait, the more time to wonder things like, "Did I pack the right outfit to take him home in?", "How much will it hurt to have these needles sticking into me? And will it really help with the seriously real pain of childbirth?!", "Am I gonna miss Lost this week?", "Is he gonna be a good sleeper?", "What if I forget to pay my credit cards this month?", "What if I can't sleep again tonight?", "Am I gonna feel fat forever?", "What the heck do you DO with a kid all day anyway?", and most often "When is this event actually going to happen?!" See what too much time can do to a person?
Well, as far as baby's outfits go, we have a special one all ready to Baby Trend tomorrow thanks to Grandma Sharon (AKA Nonni). It is washed and ready to go. Even if I do have to pin it to my belly for the day . . . :(

I hope he decides to come out tomorrow, because how pissed will he be in 21 years when he becomes legal a day or two after St. Patty's Day. Leave it to Aunt Danielle to point that out!
