As I sit here watching my stomach move like crazy, I wonder when the time will come to hold my baby girl. I'm not in any particular hurry, but I'm just wondering when the time will come to head to the hospital. I went to bed last night feeling certain that it would happen either in the middle of the night or sometime today, but nothing to report yet!
Yesterday was my first time to stay home from work, and I spent the day going to the grocery store, eating lunch with Evan, and picking him up from school in the car-rider line. It was so much fun to see him during school! He was so cute when he saw me walking down the hallway toward the cafeteria with a McDonald's happy meal; his face just started beaming!!! I hope it was because he saw me, and not the McDonald's. :)
I also got to meet the friend that he's been talking about for a few days, Noah. Noah sat with Evan at lunch and it was so cute to watch the two of them talking together. I also got to meet Noah's mom (she didn't give a name), who happens to teach at Earhardt. I also stayed to watch Evan during recess for the first few minutes. Well, if by the word stayed you understand that I watched from my van in the parking lot, trying not to look like a stalker! But I loved every minute of watching Evan. He and Noah would follow each other around, talk, play on the playground equipment, and even sit next to each other talking under a beautiful tree on this beautiful afternoon. I have to admit that I started to cry while watching him. There's just something about watching your child when they don't know that you can see them, and thinking about how big they are getting. Evan is such a wonderful young man, and I can't imagine my life without him. :)
I guess we'll just keep waiting for Elise to make her appearance. Until she gets here, I'm just going to enjoy the time I have with my family! Can't wait to meet our newest little girl!!!!!
