Winter is here
Well, it must be getting close to my delivery date because the weather has finally turned and winter is here. I may even have to go out and shovel. I guess it's a good thing we kept the snow tires on after all. At least now we should have some hope of getting out of Tuscany and to the hospital without skidding out of control on the ice and snow.
Last night Noel and I went out for a lovely Valentine's date. We're not usually ones to celebrate St. Val but we figured we should splash out since it's our last one as a family of 2. We went to Ric's Steakhouse for a change (Noel usually insists on the KEG) and it was sooooo good. I haven't eaten that much rich food in ages! And best of all I have left overs for lunch today. There was a couple with a 6 day old baby there for dinner as well. I like looking at new babies and comparing them to my belly. It's still so strange to think I've got a person in there!
I think all the rich food got to me. I had a terrible time sleeping last night. I kept dreaming that my water broke (and no it didn't and no I didn't even pee the bed). I guess it's not too surprising that all my dreams seem to revolve around labour and delivery. I'd just really like to have some idea of when it's coming...I'm a planner and I can't plan this!!!
Noel has started a "Birth Prediction Pool". He's calling for Feb 20th I think. I'm predicting March 3rd...but I've been saying that forever. I'd still prefer if Molly came late - then I'd have more time to stock food away in the freezer!
