Baby Davey (Or Davy? I'm not even sure how we're going to spell that!) seems to be very comfortable right where he is, despite numerous signs that labor is supposedly just around the corner. Today I'm 3 days late, which isn't too bad, but it feels like an eternity! I am trying hard to be in good spirits, but I'm getting a little discouraged and more than a little uncomfortable. My mom, David's mom, and David have all been very good about helping out with the kids, the house chores, encouraging me to take long walks, etc. but I feel like we're all waiting for this big event which could happen at any given moment. There's sort of a palpable tension in the air, and it's starting to wear on me.
The good news is that the end is in sight --- my doctor won't let me go overdue past Saturday, so I just have to endure the rest of this week, at worst.
Today is the feast day of St. Francis, who I chose as my confirmation saint. It would be a good day to go into labor, right? :). Or at least a good day to have an extra treat. As always, your prayers are appreciated and we'll update you when there's more news.
