Well, we start 39 weeks today. I can't believe he's not here and I can't believe at the same time that he's almost here. We went to the doctor yesterday and boy was it an eventful and uneventful appointment. We were running late so we sat longer than usual in the waiting room. Micheal of course was restless. Something always comes over him when we get to the doctor's office. I guess it is the unknown of what the doctor might say. He acts so weird and hyper the whole time. So we finally made it back to the little room where the doctor would come meet us. Micheal decided he would hide in the changing area behind the curtain. I know what you are thinking. I'm about to have two little boys to take care of. While he was behind the curtain, he decided to pass gas. It was pretty loud, so I was hoping it would not smell up the room. No matter what it was not appreciated. Well, within seconds the room begins to smell terrible. I told Micheal he better open the door before the doctor came in. The aroma could have knocked anyone out. As soon as he opened the door our nurse walked by and asked if he needed something. Haha, boy did she get a surprise. Both her and Micheal were laughing as he said, "I'm fine." She definitely knew what was going on. Micheal shut the door because he was soooo embarrassed, but the smell was still lingering. Then walks in the doctor, we call him fish hands because of his soft handshake. I was so embarrassed. He acted very professional and did not say anything of course. I on the other hand could not stop blushing. I knew he thought it was probably the constipated pregnant woman. Oh Micheal how I love thee!
We celebrated our 2 year anniversary yesterday. It was the 3rd day in a row that I cried. I have been so emotional these last couple of days. Poor Micheal! I thought that might mean something since I haven't been the whole pregnancy, but the doctor said we were still 2cm dilated and 75% effaced. This would be the uneventful news. With tears and still no Brooks, Micheal and I managed to have a wonderful dinner. My mom keeps talking about the full moon and how that will bring Brooks out. Well, I hate to bust her bubble, but we are having a waxing crescent tonight which means over a week and 1/2 before the full moon will arrive. We go back to the doctor in a week. They will do the sonogram and make sure Brooks is not too big. I guess if he is we will discuss a c-section. Otherwise we will schedule a date to induce. I really hope he comes on his own. I've been excited to say to Micheal, "MY WATER BROKE!" I guess time will tell.
Dear Brooks,
Hi it's mommy! I can't wait to hold you in my arms. I promise you will enjoy it much more than my tummy. Daddy can't wait to kiss your skin instead of mommy's tummy. We are both very excited to meet you and introduce you to so many people who already love you. I know the thought of leaving your home sounds scary, but it will be okay. I promise! Love you!
Mommy
