Today was my last day at work! I'm so glad I saved enough vacation and sick time to leave early. It's such a relief to know that I can relax and get some more baby things done over the next couple of weeks, but I am already anxious about going back. I don't want to leave my baby, and I am not looking forward to returning to the negative environment I've been working in for the past several months. We've been waiting for the past few weeks to find out if Rob will be promoted to manager in his store, but we haven't heard anything yet. I'm ready to know because if he gets the job it could be enough for me to be a stay at home mom. That is something that is so important to me, so the waiting is killing me. I'm trying not to let my impatience give way to negativity though. I have to keep reminding myself about God's timing. He'll reveal the answer when the time is right.
Pregnancy-wise, I've been feeling okay. I'm having more contractions lately, and they are closer together, stronger, and more uncomfortable than they have been in the past. My stomach is starting to drop. The combination of those things have me wondering if my little boy will be here before his due date on the 29th. Wouldn't that be an amazing Christmas present?

How exciting!!!
I;ll be praying Rob gets the promotion... I know how you feel about wanting to be a stay at home mom. I am so envious of all my friends back in the mid-west who get to be stay at home mommies. Its practically impossible for anyone to do that out here in Cali. :-( The only thing that gets me thru is the hope that we won't live here forever and maybe some day i'll be a stay at home mom.
We're starting to try for a baby again, and my dr. just told me i can no longer get my allergy shots!! Oh no! Seriously... I don't know what to do... I really can't part with my kitties.... but I also really can't breathe! *sigh*
I'll bet you are getting so ready for your little guy to be here! Keep me posted!
