I’ve spent the last several days hoping for some progress on the baby front. I got checked on Wednesday, and started to show signs of early labor within a couple hours! Yay! Right?
Wrong.

It’s no small undertaking to move while pregnant. You know how normally your nesting instinct goes into overdrive? You start to clean out the linen closet and reorganize the pantry, in addition to washing loads of little baby clothes? While my instincts were telling me to do all that, I did the opposite.

Prior to this week’s OB appointment, I’d had a few painful contractions. I’ve been feeling more pressure. In short, I’ve been feeling that there’s just GOT to be some progress on the baby front.
After this week’s appointment? I am convinced that my body and I are horribly out of sync with each other. Because while I was thinking progress, my body was apparently thinking status quo.

Everyone tells me my life is about to change dramatically. That two children don’t just double your workload – they triple or quadruple it. I wonder if I’m prepared.

Ah, a good night’s sleep. It’s what we all long for, right? To be cozy, cofortable and well rested…wait, cofortable?

The big news from today’s OB appointment: there’s nothing goin’ on. Zero. Zip. Nada. Ten days out from my due date, and as the doctor put it, “the baby’s still floating around up there.” Uh huh. Great.

There are four members of our family whom we have to keep tabs on at all times. If one of them were to get lost, our world would surely spin out of control. Introducing…Boo Boo, Gretel, The Captain, and Betel.

I SO wish I had more energy right now. I hate that I’m not blogging on a regular basis! But alas, it’s just not in the cards at the moment…

Our house is still not fully unpacked. We still have no shower enclosure, towel bars or toilet roll holder in our master bath. I could go into labor at any time, really. And yet, we decided to leave town for the Fourth of July weekend.
Boy, was that a smart decision.

This is a perfect patriotic parfait for the Fourth of July holiday. It is kid-friendly, healthy, and most of all — fun! What kid doesn’t like to eat food in the shape of a star?
