Officially Overdue

So today was supposed to be the day for Baby Azer's arrival, but he has decided to be fashionably late. (Good thing he has an eviction date already set up or who knows when he would arrive.) Maybe it was a blessing he did not come today because his Daddy spent the day in NYC, which would not have been very convenient. Now it really could be any day and I am have been walking around as much as I can stand it in the heat. People get fearful when they see me because I must look like I am about to pop and if they are near they will be caught in the blast. Someone asked me today when I was due and when I said today, she literally backed away, as if I might have the baby right then and there on her shoes or something--hilarious.

Now I am just growing impatient but getting so sleepy all day that it feels like I am in Egypt again and I have to constantly nap or I am a zombie. Everything is set for the baby, all he has to do is decide to come on out and join the party. (Do you think he is mad about being born in August? I have this new theory that he is angry that his future birthday parties may not be well attended or something and, therefore, he is trying to hold out for a September birthday, which I have blocked with his eviction date of August 27th.) We are all anxious and just waiting, and waiting, and waiting. Hopefully, he makes some progress, because I am seriously considering the wives tales I have been reading about to induce labor. (People, it's hot and I am tired and huge; I will try anything at this point.)

Keep us in your prayers! Big congratulations to Wendy and John on the birth of their son William! (I am also officially the last person I know pregnant and jealous that everyone I knew who was due right after me has already given birth.)

  1. Hey sweetie! Hang in there. I feel your pain. I remember well the agony of waiting each day past the due date. Promise your little man will come when you last expect it (or early next week as scheduled) so rest up TODAY! The fun is just days away now!! Love you!
