And....

Nothing.


Still waiting.


I have decided, though, that this baby girl, besides being very stubborn (like Daddy perhaps?), also has a sense of humor and must be in cahoots with the man upstairs. You see a while back I was inspired by good cousin Abby and her scripture reading goal. I decided that I would make the goal to read the entire Book of Mormon in my third trimester. I did fairly well at first, but true to form, I have dropped off in the last month or so. As my due date came, I found I still had the last books, Ether and Moroni, to finish. I've decided that our baby girl wasn't going to let me out of finishing my goal, so this morning I sat my little hiney down and finished the rest of the book. Oh how grateful I am for the Book of Mormon! I am grateful for the clear testimony of Jesus Christ that it contains and I'm so grateful for the innumerable sacrifices of those that labored to bring it forth for our behalf.


So baby girl, I finished. Now will you come?

I'm not gonna lie, that little post was a little cruel. I saw a new post in my google reader and got all excited. But I am also glad that you finished your goal! Now you must pick another good book (or the same good book) to have something to read while you nurse. It's the best to sit and relax and just take your time.
Hooray! Hurry little girl, hurry!

Wow. You got us all with that little blog topper...waiting for a baby to come that is pass the due date is TORTURE! You can hold that over her head for the rest of her life...I'm hoping she is officially born and you just haven't posted yet.

Can't wait...can't wait.

You poor woman. I will pray for your baby to come so you can be done and see your little miracle! Congrats on reaching your goal.

Oh, surely that must have helped! On the very day I finished my 60 day challenge I had an emergency C section that night! Seriously. I hope you are birthing a baby this moment--without the emergency stuff--just a happy healthy birth!
