so, I have been up for the last hour and 15 min having contractions anywhere between 5 and 9 minutes...more than that is a restless mind..(is this the big day,is it not? i just want to fall asleep just in case it's not but my body wont' let me) The contractions are not fun but not horrible.. and I wish I only KNEW if this was labor or not. I know of women who last weeks with braxton hicks like this. I'm just waiting to see if the pain begins to intensify-which oddly I'm a little anxious for, but I know I won't be once I'm there (if I even get there today).
Life has been good. John was out of town for a week on a missions trip in Jamaica. Blessed to have a husband who loves God and desires to Share the gospel of Jesus with others. We sure missed him while he was gone though.
Hayden is a "busy" girl. ALWAYS on the go. She has become better as listening to us. She has become even more "lovey" in her words. I.e. she will randomly say "mom, love you" or "mom, miss you." the funny one are when she out of nowhere says " sorry mom" in this cute littel voice as if she is not really sure what she is sorry about (and most the time doesn't even make eye contact when she says it). It's cute. We love her so much.
It's kinda scary knowing we are adding another to the mix. I know most parents go through this. Will I have enough love to go around? Will my first child feel unloved or not given enough attention to? But I know (having lots of bro's and sis' myself) that we all get past it and having sibling is one of the best blessings in life-thus we are happy and excited to give that experience to Hayden.
