Last Call

Alright, well this is the last post before the baby! a little update first on the house situation, we are probably closing monday. tomarrow is possible, but not probable, we are thinking it will be monday. as for the baby coming tomarrow. im happy, and excited, and nervous. the pregnancy has been good, its definatly different than not being pregnant, but maybe trying for so long to get pregnant made the little inconveniences of pregnancy stay to the back of my mind. im still amazed that there is a living baby in my belly. and that i was able to bring him here to earth. its like seeing the circle of life thru me. its pretty amazing that God has given this gift to women, even ones that dont in our opinions deserve the babies they get. but its pretty significant that He has given that gift to almost all women if they want it. i mean, that is the most precious gift available. there is a quote i liked "A Baby is God's opinion that the world should go on. Never will a time come when the most marvelous recent invention is as marvelous as a newborn baby." So in my mind, pregnancy is one of the greatest blessings i've ever recieved. its something i've always dreamed of since i can remember. i always wondered what my babies would look like, and having one of my own to take home was always somethng i knew i wanted more than almost anything. so tomarrow will mark a huge day for me. and dan. he's gona be a great dad. today i was saying i should have had my hair touched up since its growing out and i wont be able to go in for a while, and dan said maybe he could take the baby to a movie- you know a cartoon- something he would like while i get my hair done. hahah. he was kidding. but i thought it was funny... anyways, i just thought i would leave my thoughts on my pregnancy one last time since next time i post i wont be pregnant. thats hard to believe, i feel like i've been pregnant so long. it has been 41 weeks... its hard to imagine life without a belly- with pants that button or zip, or that even stay up without rolling down below my belly... and shirts that dont always have to be pulled down... and sleeping any way i want to! it will be so much easier to get up and down... anyways. Good night! we are making Lettuce Wraps tonight for dinner, so that should be good:)

Cass and Dan,
I can tell you've thot about this for a long time, and yes I agree with you, it is one of the greatest of blessings for not only a mom but also for the dad. I agree also that Dan will be a very good dad, you two are well suited, and living your dreams, that makes me very happy.
Love dad--RWH

Cassie-
Jeremy showed me your blog several months ago and I've been trying to keep track of how you're all doing. I hope everything goes well for your induction! I am very excited for you. :) Our little Reilly is 6 months old now, which is so crazy...
