So again, let's face the fact that I am clearly a horrible blogger that keeps you hanging on for months on end with no updates! I PROMISE to keep this story going as best I can with the new life we have coming our way. I know I will be 2x busier, but for the sake of memories and my own sanity to get things out of my head and off my heart, this blog is like therapy for me! So here we go! AGAIN...
Woke up this morning, with a call into the hospital at 5am to check in for my delivery. Sundays are considered a turn around day (I assume like at a hotel) and they are all booked up until later today. I have been fasting since 9pm and I can't go much longer without food in my system so to be nice to my husband (I get HANGRY real quick) we have decided tomorrow will be a better day for us all!
This being said, I feel like I've been given one last chance to make the best of the day! So for the next 24 hours I will take it all in and enjoy this last day of being a tribe of 3!
Hubby and Harp are still upstairs snoozing and I'm enjoying the stillness of my living room, got my CMT video countdown on in the background (which is rare since Ty isn't a country music fan), a load of towels in the laundry smelling the house up oh so good and making my list of things to delegate to do while Im in the hospital.
This whole process has been a whirlwind. Just when we thought we had life figured out and on somewhat of a schedule.. those two pink lines showed up again! Weird how that happens. (We celebrated our first wedding anniversary which is on Valentines Day and nine months later here we are) Do the math.
I again have been super lucky to have had another amazing pregnancy. I didn't have any morning sickness or anything to really slow me down. If you know me, you know I am always 90 to nothing all day, errr' day! I don't really have a choice with lil miss Harper Rose running our lives! In fact there were times I would forget I was pregnant and wonder why I was SO exhausted at the end of the day! These last couple weeks have slowed me down a little with the horrible, awful, no good sciatic nerve flaring up. (That thing is NO JOKE and will make you STOP in your tracks to sit down and just breathe it out) Also, just the whole hip expansion, changing bra sizes every month, the pee sneezes and emotions. (My poor husband, he will never understand that sometimes I just need a good cry, stop asking WHY cause I don't know!)
This lil boy, Beckham Bradley Holmes will be the perfect addition to our crazy life. Ty is so so so so so so so so so excited to have his boy to play baseball with and take fishing! He keeps saying "I can't believe we are gonna have a mini "ME"! "
Prayers for a safe and easy (as can be) induction tomorrow are appreciated! I won't lie, I'm extremely excited, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't scared out of my mind to start this next chapter. I try to be a planner and that has been something I have struggled with. Kids don't allow for much "planning". They dictate what, when and how you are going to do things. So I've learned to take things day by day, communicate with my husband better and just enjoy the ride! Here we go! AGAIN.
