A restless night

So I cant sleep. I'm still trying to decide if it is because my mind is racing a million miles a minute about the fact I could have this child tomorrow, or if it is just the end of pregnancy lack of comfort. I truly think it is my minds fault. Although I would love to be holding my little baby in my arms rather than my belly, I feel like I still have a million things to do before he comes! Not to mention . . . tomorrow just isn't the best day for me. And then I think to myself, what kind of a mother am I!! I'm already putting my needs before his, even in regards to his birth! I just keep telling my self over and over again that Heavenly Father knows best and he will deliver my son to me just at the right time.

I had finally started feeling better about things (in regards to his position). I honestly thought he had turned back around based on the movement I had been feeling. But yet again, all night the movement I have been feeling is very low which concerns me. So alas, I sit here and wait until 12:45 this afternoon to find out what will happen. Has he turned? If so great! I'm feeling good and it will give me the extra motivation to truly get everything ready. If he hasn't . . . then I head to the hospital and they physically try to move him. I'm hoping my extra fluid will help the cause. But if it doesn't, I truly am hoping that my water is strong enough to hold out all the physical pressure So I can have yet again a little more time to get things in order. And if not, then WOO HOO!! I will be a mother tomorrow. WOW! That truly blows my mind.

Can you see why I cant sleep? After and hour and a half of just laying there not even close to dosing off I decided to get up and scrapbook. I'm hoping the next 6 hours go by quickly so I can at least know what is going to happen.

Hang in there Becca! Whenever he ends up coming will be the perfect time and you're probably more prepared than you think! Love ya!
This is probably too late, but you should eat lots of eggs. I ate lots of eggs with my pregnancy and they had a hard time manually breaking my water because they said the eggs made it super tough! Hope all goes well!

What to pack . . .

So now that he really could come ANY DAY I figured it was probably time for me to pack my bag. I of course have one of those "What to bring" checklist, but I was wondering what your thoughts where. Is there anything you wish you had brought but didn't? Is there anything you would have died without if you hadn't brought it? I'm just so clueless! A few tips from you experienced mothers would be greatly appreciated!! I cant believe it is so close!!

Have you noticed?

I need a haircut ASAP! This is me saying, "I'll smile if you ignore my hair." Don't get me wrong, I am really excited I have long hair, I love having long hair , but it needs a little TLC. It has been a few months since I have even got a trim and I am still re-couping from a not so good hair cut. The last few times I have really CUT my hair, not just a trim, I was not pleased with the results. Now it would probably help if I was willing to pay more than $10 for a hair cut . . . but I'm Mrs. High Pockets as my father calls me and it is really hard for me to spend money on my hair. So I need your help! What do you think I should do? Before you make any suggestions you should know: It MUST be able to go back into a ponytail!!!!!!! My hair is STICK STRAIGHT My hair will not curl to save my life (via over night curls, hot curls, even curling irons, they just don't work) I want and need something EASY! I do not like to spend time on my hair and I don...

No Use Crying Over Spilled Milk . . .

So being an emotional pregnant woman is definitely taking its tole on both me and Jeff (what a wonderful, patient, and understanding man he is). Saturday morning I was so excited because for the first time in weeks we actually had a morning together. I had planned to make us a delicious breakfast just like my dad always did for me. We had Eggs, Hashbrowns, and even Bacon; we were so excited. So I started cooking the bacon first, knowing it would take the longest. Then when I thought they were close to being done, Jeff started cooking the eggs and I threw on the hashbrowns. Well, needless to say, the eggs finished super fast and the others were not even close. And then to add more to my frustration the pan I was using for the hashbrowns was awful! Despite my many tablespoons of butter the entire thing was completely stuck! I switched pans in the middle to try to save them. In the meantime Jeff ate his eggs so they wouldn't get cold. I insisted on waiting so I could eat th...
