• Home, sweet home.
        It's so GREAT to be home.... and still have you inside cooking a little while longer.  I got a week off of work though, so that's nice.  I suppose that kind of makes up for the torture you put me through...   After sleeping most of the day yesterday, Daddy and I finished cleaning out your closet and got our bags packed for the hospital.  We were so not ready on Saturday.  I sincerely thought they were going to send me home with gas.  Funny huh?  Everything is washed and packed and ready to go... in case you decide to get things going in a hurry again.
        Your dad is fantastic.  He is the best husband and future daddy ever to walk the face of the earth.  When I couldn't move my legs or even talk without slurring from the drugs they had us on to stop contractions, your dad never left my side.  He was holding my hand, emptying my bedpan, and telling me all along how beautiful I am to him.  He helped me not be so scared... which was great because I was pretty terrified when we first got to the hospital and they told me I really was in labor.  It makes me want to cry, Aidyn.  I don't deserve such a wonderful man.  But God gave him to me anyway.  So wonderful...
        We have our 35 week appointment scheduled today... They're going to do an ultrasound to make sure you're alright and that your placenta is still in good shape because I was bleeding a bit more than I should have been over the weekend.  I'm so excited to see your face again... and to think... it won't be long at all now until we get to see and touch your precious face.

        Just hold on another week or two, Sweet Pea.  I want to see you and hold you so much...
                        but I have the rest of my life to do that.  We can wait... you're worth the wait...

                                                     I love you.
