Two weeks and counting...

So, we're 38 weeks as of today and it is pretty crazy to think that at any moment I could go into labor. Everyone keeps asking if I'm ready. Well, yes and no. I would love at least another week or so to get my "stuff" in order but also would love to meet him whenever it's time (whether that be tomorrow or in two weeks.

I've been to work for the last two weeks which hasn't been too bad. I kind of figured at this point I would be miserable but it hasn't been that way at all. I'm hoping that all the walking and sitting on the floor talking to kids will pay off and help start labor when he's good and ready. My coworker Laura laughed at me yesterday as I was sitting on the cold hallway floor talking with some first graders. Several teachers kept peeking their heads out and asking me if I needed chair. The truth was, it felt pretty good sitting on the cold, tiled floor. The other part of the truth was that it wasn't such a pretty sight when I had to get up off the cold, tiled floor.

Another funny thing at work has been the comments from the students. About a million little girls have asked me "Are you having a baby??" and one of my students asked me "What is that baby doing in there?". I'm not sure if she meant how did it get in there or what activity is it doing in there. I've often wondered the latter question myself as it feels like he's playing a nice game of ping pong or boxing with his invisible twin. Soon enough I will be able to comment on exactly what my baby is doing and will probably do so often in this blog. We can't wait to meet him and see what he's going to be like.
