Why couldn't I be more like a lion??
Did you know that lions on average have their cubs after only 108 days of pregnancy? That's only about 3 1/2 months. I would have had my baby back in the middle of March!!!!! The blog has been silent for a long time because I am leading a very boring life of waiting. I had some early signs of labor back at 28 weeks, so I've been trying to take it easy (watching my summer disappear :( ) It has been a boring and very uncomfortable few months. I am now so excited to be done and meet my little boy, but of course now that I want it to happen, it won't! So, I'm am sitting at my computer google-ing pregnancy and I notice how lucky some animals are. Rabbits are only 30 days!! But they also have a gajillion babies at once (no thanks!!) And all I can say is poor poor African elephants--645 days or 22 months. Maybe I'll just be grateful it's only nine-ish months for us humans and go take another nap!

Oh you poor girl. I'm sorry you're having a miserable summer. Both my kids were due in January, and I felt like I was hot all the time even then! I can't imagine going through it in the heat of summer. I hope things go well for you! Can't wait to see pictures when the new little guy decides to come!
You are so funny. I'm glad you always have a positive way to look at things. I'm sure once you are going in to the hospital you will be thinking "wait, I want to go back...I'm not ready for this" Who knows. You are awesome! Can't wait until he's here.
Oh, good luck, only 3 more weeks to go! Ya, I'm glad we're not elephants either!
