Just Over Six More Weeks

I feel horrible for saying this, but I am done. I don't want to be pregnant anymore. I'm glad that Raul and I are done, that this is our last baby. I seriously do not know how people do this so many times. I had an easy pregnancy with Joshua...no complaints, even when people would tell me I looked uncomfortable, even when I was eight days past my due date. I felt awesome and could pretty much take on the world. This time around. I ache. My back, my stomach, my pelvis, my legs, my feet, even my hands have begun to hurt and look a little puffy. At least I can still wear my wedding ring this time. I just hope that the next few weeks go by as quickly as the past 32+ weeks have because I really want to feel like my old self again. I'm sure I'll swell even more after Matthew is born like I did with Joshua, but hopefully not too much.

I have started my list of things to pack for my hospital bag...don't worry, my laptop is on the list (but that won't go in until either labor starts or the day before our c-section) because the hospital has free WiFi...oh yeah, I'll be updating with pictures here, on facebook, I'm sure friends will be dying on the on the other end of the Yahoo line to hear all about how he is doing. Three days stuck in the hospital I need to stay busy. I got bored after a day with Joshua and never slept anyway since every nurse known to mankind had to come in and check my vitals or Joshua's vitals. It drove me crazy. I also hope that our friends will be so kind as to wait to come and hold Matthew till he is home and we have our "Meet the Baby Gathering". 

We have our hospital tour on Sunday...yep, that is how we are celebrating our anniversary. We'll catch dinner afterwards then go and pick up Joshua from Jen and Ray's. But it is something we felt we needed to do sooner, rather than later. Don't want to not know what to expect as this is a new hospital for us.
