Lady-in-waiting

I thought I'd become better at this whole 'patience' caper since The Boy was born but waiting for my little girl to arrive is certainly testing me. I think part of the problem is that I've been told I'll go early (also I was a week early with The Boy and he was nearly 10 pounds, which as you might imagine is playing on my mind a bit!). So I am doing my best to take it easy and enjoy these last few hours/days/weeks (eeek, I hope it's not weeks!) until the birth. It's still a bit over a week until my 'due date' anyway, I'm just feeling very impatient.

So - I'm making some Bolognese, stitching up some hexies for a quilt, having lovely long chats with my Mum, playing trains/planes/cars with The Boy, resting in front of the fan, eating copious amounts of ice and giving my increasingly enlarging belly a rub and feeling super excited about what the future holds.
