ready to go!

As of today at 1:30pm, we are 3cm. dialated and 90% effaced and ready to go whenever! can't wait to do this with you! you are the best support person i could ask for and i feel so lucky to have you by my side ;)

Trying to embrace the wait!

Hello handsome! I just finished writing my first "love note" on our baby's blog! I love that I have these blogs as places to write to you each individually and record parts of our lives. and I love that these notes will live on through the years and our babies can view them and know our love story and our lives before they ever were. Our to-do list is almost done- we are working on a few more things that can very easily wait for a while if baby decides to make her appearance. I am working on scrap booking, you are working on getting our screen door put up (with a doggy door!), and we want to find a lamp and get you a dentist appointment.  but the reality is, we are just waiting now! you are sooo excited- you want our baby girl here right now! i know you are going to be such a good daddy- just because you already love her so much! I can't wait to see you in action- diapering, burping, swaddling, rocking- it is going to absolutely melt my heart.

but for now, I am taking time to remember our relationship! a friend at church is getting married in august and asked about our venue and i took 10 minutes and looked through all our wedding pictures- what beautiful memories! and I am listening to "Hey Ho" by the Lumineers right now! I love our story, Jesus! Thank you for walking through life with me and being my best friend! You are really, truly my favorite person in this world and I am so thankful I get to do life with you. and that i get to have a family with you- think about how much we love our Booga and how much more we will love our Johanna! I can't wait for this new season in our life, but I am trying to embrace the wait and savor each of these few days with just the two of us.

Last night, we made brownies and watched "Scrubs" and just had a great time relaxing. I love our lazy nights! I love watching cheesy movies (foreign films anyone?) and playing games (even though you kicked my butt last time) and just enjoying the slow times with you! i love sitting around in our robes and cuddling on the couch... pretty much anything I do with you is wonderful! I love you!
