My little Ballerina!

Well, its 3 days before my baby Lily comes... its 2:36am, and she has me up already! She thinks its a wonderful game to put her hands above her head (which, since she's already head down and ready to come out... this is UNCOMFORTABLE)... so she puts her hands above her head and twirls. Look at that picture!!! Do you see room for a baby to twirl? I am very ready to lay down comfortably, to be able to lift my legs without pain, to be able to turn over at night, run, ahh, and sleep on my tummy again! But then I think about how long she's been in there and how I feel her move and squirm and how recently she will poke her foot out and Dave and I can actually measure it, and I get sad for Tuesday! Tuesday I will wake up and not be pregnant anymore! I can say it in two totally opposite tones! Yipee! I will wake up and not be pregnant anymore... and OH NO! I will wake up and not be pregnant anymore! I just love it so much! But look at me! I really can't wait! Her room is ready, her bag is packed... she's coming on Monday! I will get to hold her in my arms and cuddle her, kiss her, and caress her! Oh how delightful!
I try to picture what she will look like, then I try not to so I can be surprised! I have her tiny little clothes layed out then I see that picture above and worry she won't fit in any of them! I look a these little bitty socks and onsies and wonder what it will be like. It seems like a while since I've held a baby so small. But I know it will all come back and with such enjoyment. I already have thoughts of how she's going to be. I believe she'll be laid back, go with the flow, patient, and very cuddly. Maybe because Zech was so bouncy and loud and not as patient as a mom would want. Still a very great child, but a bit more work in some areas. So I rub my HUGE belly and remind her that I already have the crazy active boy, and I can't wait to meet my calm, patient little girl! :)
But that won't be long now! Just the weekend, then she's here! I can hardly wait! I just hope I get to sleep soon!
