"Due Date"

Today was my due date. I didn't expect to be one of the 5% that has their baby on that day. I'm still being patient. This morning we went to the flea market then took Cooper on a long walk in the park. Casey made me spicy buffalo chicken dip and I drank lots of pineapple juice. I'm just trying to help you out Benton but I know you'll come when you're ready.

In other news, our canoe was stolen today. It was tied to a tree on our river property. It's sad when you can't trust people.

The anticipation is killing me. I'm not feeling particularly impatient but the unknowns about when and how he'll get here keep me on edge. This weekend was full of swimming, walking and yoga. After any exercise Benton moves around so much it feels like he is trying to break out. Can't wait to see his face!

We had our good friend Seth to take some maternity pictures last week.  This little baby boy will be here before we know it.  I will miss my bump, all the little movements throughout the day, and being pregnant in general but seeing his face and having him here with us will surely top that. I can't wait to hold him in my arms.
