my days are going way too fast, and my nights, too slow.

another rough night but I still think I'd rather choose rough nights and wonderful days over the opposite any day.

feb 24

last night was the worst one yet, and still manageable, and dare I say enjoyable when I think about how long we waited for this little gift.

I'm well aware that things could go drastically worse than they are - that's why I'm thankful for how smooth this transition seems.

today is a new day and i pray, a five a.m. prayer, that we can go home.

Micah is jaundiced and the sight of his tiny little body under the big blue lights is enough to break my heart.

my heart is full to the brim - and already i cannot imagine our life without him.

we are trying to enjoy these last days/weeks of just the two of us,
but it's becoming increasingly more difficult the more excited we
become.

feb 14

i am glad that valentine's day doesn't define our love - but i do wish
i was better at making time to prepare for special days beforehand.

feb 13

I've been productive despite myself today - a very good start to a very busy week.

Saturday, February 12, 2011

feb 12

no baby last night and that's okay - we still have to pack our bag, take the maternity ward tour and pre-register at the hospital today.

feb 11

i am seriously uncomfortable at my desk today - i wish i would go into
labor tonight - tomorrow i'm technically full term after all.

feb 10

i would seriously rather be cleaning at home then stuck at a desk
today -- and if you know me, you know that that's saying a LOT.

feb 9

it may not be wishful thinking anymore to hope for an early delivery - we've got a big boy on our hands!

it's becoming very real - i only have 12 more days in the office - ah!

feb 7

don't like: doing errands after work; like: Curtis taking care of dinner; don't like: his dinners usually consist of some microwavable Nestle product; like: him, even though he doesn't cook.

i am looking forward to getting some use out all the baby stuff we
just accumulated as we babysit two scrumptious little ones tonight.

feb 3

after two days of working from home in the dreary grey cold, i'm
feeling antsy at my desk - but the sun shining through the window sure
helps my mood.

Wednesday, February 2, 2011

feb 2

ice is blowing off the trees and i pull my sweater tighter and hold my
breath as the house creaks with the sounds of the frozen wind.

feb 1

i have thoroughly enjoyed a blissfully productive false alarm "snow
day" at home today - i wonder if the snow will hit tomorrow.
