Little One,
You are so almost here!  We had a check up yesterday and the doctor told me that we’re already 2cm and 80% effaced (TMI).  This could mean you’re coming soon or you’re coming in 2 weeks but goodness gracious progress is progress and you are on your way!

You’re dad and I are freaking out with excitement at the thought of getting to meet you and we’ve started walking for a while at night in the hopes that we will shake you out (or something like that…we don’t know how it works).  Everything is set up and ready to go, we have everything we need and its all in its rightful place…all we’re missing is you!  So you can totally come out now, we fully support it.

Even though I’m actually quite a bit terrified of labor It’s amazing how excited I’m getting.  It’s almost (i repeat ALMOST) overshadowing how incredibly tired, and miserable I am. I blame the weather and its brutal hot days for this…I don’t think its really your fault at all.   But mama is beat.  I cannot believe that we are nearly at the end of this part of our journey together.  Next stop FRIENDSHIP!  It’s gonna be AWESOME!

We love you Penelope Joy.  And this is only the beginning of how great our love is for you.  It’s gonna grow like mad and we are so incredibly excited about you.

XOXO,

M
