Well, I cant believe it but you all were very very right. This last week has flown by and I will be having a little girl tomorrow!!! YIKES! Sounds soo weird! Rudy and I were both a little sad this morning that it would be the last morning of sleeping in and the last real morning of just the two of us (since tomorrow will be crazy nuts getting everything in the car and out the door.) I still dont know that it has hit me completely!! Maybe because everytime ive gone in expecting to have her, i have had to go home without a baby. The hospital called to confirm everything and i was half expecting them to say ....sorry, you have to wait another week.
We had a fall get together last night at my parents and even though the rain put a damper on the bonfire, it was so much fun and a nice thing for me since i wont be at the color drive- I at least got to roast a hot dog and marshmallows over the fire :) And it was quite the night for rudy since he had never roasted anything on a stick before. Next weekend we are going to carve pumpkins since it got late too fast last night and we ran out of time. He has never done this before either- so another adventure in towe for him then. :) It was good to see everyone and have a fun night . My sister and I got our last pictures of our pregnant bellies together and i got to enjoy mom's delish chili and cornbread:) What a night!
I have to say, i am getting a little sad about not being pregnant anymore. Never having known that i could even have kids- its been such a blessing to feel her move inside of me. Even though i am off balance and "clumsier than ever" It will be weird to not have her inside of me and to know that i am no longer pregnant. What a weird thing- to go in being pregnant and a few hours later- your not...its all very strange to me! I will enjoy being able to get up and down from the couch by myself and in and out of bed. etc. It will be nice to drive wtihout having my stomach get stearing wheel burns and be able to manuver without crutches or a wheelchair when we go out. AND the best part will be having our little Vaughn-elise with us! Bring it on 2 am feedings. Im ready!

Meghan, I can't wait to meet little Vaughn, how exciting you are going to be a Mommy in less than 24hrs!!!! C-sections are great, I had both of mine that way, a little sore afterward, but a breeze, just take the meds they give you and let everyone wait on you as long as possible to let yourself heal properly, don't do too much too soon, I did and had to have my incision repopened because it got infected. I felt so good that I thought I was superhuman, so I was walking all over the place a few hours after the baby was born, the nurses got so mad, they would turn around and I would be talking to them at the nurses station just 6 hours after Hilary was born, I was bored in my bed, so I just decided to go visit, they finally just accepted that I was crazy. I would also go across the hall and steal ice creams bars in the middle of the night, oh yea, I got a pair of scrubs too, from the linen closet down the hall at 2 am one morning, I think they were glad when I left, anyway, don't do any of that just rest and use that button to let the nurses do their job!!! I will be praying for you and Vaughn tomorrow!! God Bless all of you! Barb Wright
