41 weeks and a few days

the last preggo shot

41 weeks and 4 days and i'm still pregnant. this doesn't really alarm or bother aaron or i, but we are in the minority. everyday there are emails and texts from concerned family, friends, and coworkers. i understand that people are concerned. but we are not, not until the midwives are. they assure us that things are perfectly healthy and normal. they conducted a non-stress test to make sure there is enough water, and the placenta is healthy. a-ok on both fronts. 

he has a few more days to make his way out on his own, otherwise we will be induced by saturday. it's so weird to think that in a few days we will be meeting him and our lives will change forever. i can't really imagine what such a life changing event will be like. 

can i tell you that the absolute worst thing about pregancy has been? at 41 weeks, going to work and dealing with comments from absolutely everybody. the boss, co-workers, other offices..."what are you still doing here?" "no baby, what's wrong?" "you should do this, this or this" "how far dialated are you?" blarg. please just let me work. i know the intentions are good. but every. single. day. so annoying.

in other, non-baby news, aaron and i had a great date night last night. we saw kumiko: the treasure hunter at the bear's tooth last night and had a yummy dinner. the movie was excellent - the last time we went out to see a movie, just the two of us was well over a year ago. not something we do routinely, but it was a nice way to spend one of our last nights as just a family of 2.
