Just an update: I am dialated to the big number of 1 maybe 1 & 1/2!!!! That's it! 38 weeks and I am a 1 & 1/2 at the most! AGH! And, I was not really happy with my visit yesterday and I actually bawled after I got out of the dr.'s office. =(
Anyway, all of that to say, that I know God is teaching me in this moment. He is using this waiting time to bring some things to my attention and I know that I must abide in HIM as I wait. It is difficult to not demand and whine and cry that baby Drew come out today as right now that does not seem to be in our Heavenly Father's plans for this little one! I MUST trust that HIS plans are perfect and that He has the perfect birth day for our little baby boy. Just please pray for me that I can have the strength and peace to do that!! =)
In waiting out this time, maybe I can get a few more things accomplished before he arrives! Or, maybe I can just spend more time just being with my amazing husband and little girls! =) If he is not here by Saturday, Charlie & I have a big day planned with homemade doughnuts for the girls, outside playtime with them, and lunch and shopping(for the baby) in town just me & Charlie! So, that will be fun!!!! Time by ourselves!!!! Yay!!!! (Can you tell that I am excited?)
Well, I have to get off of this computer and make breakfast and play with the girls for awhile. They are SO exhausted from the trip and missed naps yesterday! It will be nice just to hang out here at home and let them play and help Mama "clean". They love to "help" me "clean"!! I hope it continues as they get older but I am not holding my breath!! =)
Oh, and we will be listening to a "SELAH" CD that I bought yesterday while we work and play! I have been wanting a CD of theirs for awhile and I am blown away!! My Mama even likes it and we very rarely ever like the same Christian music!!! So, I would say, that if it bridges generations like that, it must be awesome!!! We listened to it all afternoon yesterday!! Mama even loved the African stuff!! REALLY cool!!! =)
So, enough rambling for today. I hope you enjoyed my little ecclectic post about anything and everything! I am finding that as I get closer to the birth, I am rambling a lot!
Blessings and Prayers on you and your families,
Julie

The best blessings are worth waiting for...and patience is a virtue....lol. I know not what you want to hear right now...But Jason, my uhoh and the one I waited for the longest, was and is the best blessing...I love my girls but he has been such a good baby and still makes me smile today...It will be worth it when you get to hold baby Drew in your arms finally....
Love Ya

ps...Kylie says thank you for your birthday post on her...
We will keep you in our prayers. I know how you feel and I am only 35 weeks pregnant!! Hang in there.
Prayers are never stopping for you my friend, love you.
Will be praying for you...I definitely can relate...And then it happens when you least expect it! (With DearDaughter2, when I finally resigned my anxiety to the Lord, my contractions started when I least expected it! It happened in His perfect timing and it truly was the best time!) He'll uphold you with His strength!
