It's time...

I love my little baby and I am so excited to welcome him or her to our family. I'm ready to see this new little person for the first time.

And let's be real. At 40 weeks of pregnancy, I'm ready to be done.

It's D Day (baby's due date) and it seems I am constantly finding myself stuck. I'm stuck between frequent hunger pains and heartburn, laziness and nesting, excitement and worry, insomnia and exhaustion. And the other day was no exception.

Lunch. Chores. Heartburn. Chores. Exhausted. Tried napping. Heartburn. Finally fell asleep. Dog starts crying. Dog has diarrhea. Fantastic. Let dog out. Clean up dog. Try napping again. Toddler wakes up from nap. Nap fail. Chores. More heartburn. Dinner time comes. Still have heartburn. Skip dinner. Bedtime comes. Hungry but afraid to have more heartburn. Can't fall asleep. Read. Still can't sleep. Baby has a party in my belly. Can't sleep. Finally fall asleep. Dog starts crying. Dog has diarrhea. Fantastic. Huge thunderstorm. Take dog outside. Clean and dry off dog. Hungry. Snack. Heartburn. Try to sleep. Thunder. Baby kicking. Read. Finally fall asleep. Dog starts crying (seriously). Dog has diarrhea (seriously). Fantastic. Take dog outside. Try to go back to sleep. Read. Finally fall asleep. Husband's alarm goes off for work. Toddler wakes up. Two and a half hours of sleep.

It's time for a baby.
