Waiting...patiently

So what’s going on at our house lately? Lots of nesting and lots of waiting. Patiently. 16 days to go and as of last Thursday I was 20% effaced and dilated to 1cm, which means it could still be a while. Over the weekend there was some loss of mucus, lots of pressure on the pelvic bones, and I felt more energized than normal, which are all good signs, but we’ll see what the doctor says when I go back on Wednesday. If there has been no progress, the hubby says we’re going to go walk the mall 5 or 6 times. I told him he’d be lucky if I could walk it once. In the meantime, I’ll continue to wait. Patiently.

Have I been knitting to pass the time while I’m patiently waiting? No. For some reason I am just not motivated to knit wool socks when it’s in the 90’s outside. Even when I’m indoors in the cool A/C, it just seems wrong somehow. So there’s really no telling when I’ll get back to all the partial socks I have started. I have been scrapbooking some, but again I’m not making that much progress. And then there’s the cross stitch birth record that I started for baby girl. I made one for the boy so I feel obligated to make one for the girl. Other than that, I’ll continue to clean and try to get organized and oh yeah, be patient while I wait. I hope to have some news for you soon!

The folks at work had a really nice shower for me and I'll try to share some pics of that tomorrow.
