Just Waiting
October 25th, 2009 @ 11:05 pm
I can’t even begin to tell you how bored I am right now. I know…I’ll regret saying that soon and wish I had time to be bored again. We are so ready for this little guy to come. It’s just crazy! I’m definitely in the uncomfortable stage. Sleeping is the worst and I’m so tired. I’ve even been taking naps (not that those are any more comfortable). I’ve even gotten several more things off my list that didn’t need to be done now.
Today I worked on going through my “Clean Eating” magazines (I was behind on two of them). I just love these magazines. They have great photos of “clean” items and recipes galore. I always mark the recipes we’d like to try, then put them in a spreadsheet (name of recipe, what magazine edition it’s in, and the page number) for easy reference. That’s where I go to when making my grocery list and planning out our weekly menus (which I haven’t done for a while now). Then I post pictures and the recipe on my blog. I highly recommend checking out the magazine if you have time. It’s great!!!
I’m so bored, I’m rambling. I’ll stop for now and hope to be able to blog about our new little edition very soon. He’ll have his own website, so my blog will go back to being my blog (creations, recipes, etc…). When I get approval to start exercising again, I have another blog that I plan on using to document my weight loss (with fat pictures and all…LOL). It’s ready to go (had planned to start it when I found out I was pregnant back in February). It’s just waiting to be filled with content.

You are too funny, Jan! Just revel in the fact that everything is off your to-do list– what a feeling!
Chris and I are praying for you big time!

Love this post! I check your blog daily to see if there is any news:)
Cherish this alone time with your husband. These are the last few moments when Jason is the only other person in your family you have to care for. Never again will you have a moment when he is the only person on your mind. Hug longer, talk without interruptions, sit with each other and don’t say anything- just enjoy the stillness. Because in a matter of days your hugs and your conversations will be shortened by the cry of your little one. And stillness..well enjoy it while you have it

Amy, What great words! Thank you! I love that you check on us (via this blog) and can’t wait to update with news of our little one. I went to the doctor today and my cervix is still closed, still 75% effaced, but she said his head has dropped considerably, so that’s a good sign. No contractions yet. Taking each day as it comes.

Hi Jan!!
I’m so excited for you and Jason!! I’ve been checking with Grandma to see how you are doing and if you had your baby. He will SOON be here!! The last few days are so hard and you ask yourself if today could be the day. But baby White will come so cherish these days with each other! I will be thinking and praying for you! You take care! Love you! PS…I love Gpa’s tie quilt…it IS the BEST!! You did an AWESOME job!!!

Everyone keeps saying to soak up these last moments with Jason (as a couple). We’ve thought of something to do with each other every day to maximize our time together. Tonight is date night.
