40 weeks and counting...

So, you're all probably amazed at that I'm actually posting, but more amazed that I'm still pregnant! Me too! This is what happens when everything on your pre-delivery checklist is done and you have nothing else to do while you wait to go into labor. So now it is the eve of my birthday and while before tonight I was doing everything you could think of to get this baby to come (including a run to the park) now I'm going to sit on the couch and try not to move a muscle for the next 27 hours. Call me selfish, but I really don't want a baby on my birthday. A baby is a great present, an incredible present, but it is still awesome whether it's on your birthday or not. Just because I'm writing about it, I'll eat my words and it will happen tomorrow. Everyone needs to combine together and pray that I can hold off for one more day, then in our little family we would have birthdays on the 19th, 20th, 21st, 22nd and 23rd. We'll keep you posted...

Oh great job posting Holly! It was really fun to get a sneak peak into your Christmas. Looked like such a great time that you could all be together. Yeah for Jack on his bike, that is so awesome, and I am glad that Jordan was ready to let go of her binki. Perfect timing. I hope you have a great birthday today. I was going to email you this morning that, but saw you had posted. I will be crossing my fingers that little baby Taylor will wait just one more day!

Holly!! Happy Birthday today! Madi had surgery on her ears today, so I'll call soon. You look so great! I love the picture of you reading to your kids on the couch. I'm so glad that you had such a great Christmas. Jordan's birthday party and cake were darling. Savannah would have been in heaven with that darling Cinderella! Well, I sure hope you can wait until tomorrow to have your baby. That's incredible how your birth dates would turn out. That would be awesome! Calling you now! Love, Jen
