Tomorrow marks my official due date and boy is it scary and exciting at the same time.
Scary because...
-giving birth is scary
-nothing is in my control (and if you know me, you know I hate that)
-the pain I plan on experiencing
-of all the unknowns
Exciting because...
-we will soon become a family of five
-we finally get to meet our second son
-everything is done, my mom is already up here, and Nate's job has calmed down dramatically
-the weather is perfect, no chance of a snow storm here :)
Well I have no idea if baby boy is going to arrive tonight, tomorrow, or even be late (which is really funny to me), but until then we are just continuing to pray for a smooth, quick and safe delivery. We also would appreciate prayer from you. We will keep you posted, but hopefully the next blog post will be us introducing our newest little man.

Scary? Yes. Exciting? Yes! So, let's get the show on the road. :) Praying over the whole thing!
So excited for you! :)
Making it to your due date is AWESOME!! We are so excited for you, and eagerly awaiting the big news.
And your head may not be in control of giving birth, but your body totally is - it's what women are specially designed for :0) If you can relax and let your body and baby take the lead, you'll be just fine in the end (whatever path it takes to get there). Plus the final result is most definitely worth it!
I totally agree with Shawn and Amelia's comment...and from one control freak to another, I totally get what you're saying. ;) But trust that your body knows what to do, and don't go into it scared of the pain. The beautiful thing about labor is that you get a total complete break from the pain after every contraction...remember that!! And the baby at the end is SO worth it all. You're going to do fantastic!!! Giving birth is one of the most amazing experiences on the planet, and I am so stinking excited that you get to do it!!! :) God is SO good. Can't wait to meet your little guy.
Can't wait to see pictures of your little guy! Especially the big sis/bro pic. Those are my favorite :)
