Waiting

Norah,

I bought Evening Primrose Oil at Sprouts just now, which means only one thing... Your eviction notice is coming soon! Your Dad and I will start trying to ease you outta here (naturally, of course) starting Tuesday. As "popular" as Castor Oil is for naturally helping to induce labor, I will never ever ever take it. I've heard it makes mama super sick and turns labor into a disaster. No thank you! We have a LONG list of other ways to get things started. (Think spicy foods, "hugs, not drugs", tea, etc. More on this later.)

We're just so excited for you to be here!!

Love, Mom

P.S. Thanks for trying to kick a hole in my side all day today. I think you're making progress. ;)

Letter to Norah

Dear Norah,

This letter is for you only, although I'm sure that many others will read it on this blog of ours. I started a countdown on my phone a few days ago... It says that there are just 17 days and 5 hours until you are full term, or 38 weeks. Thinking of how close we are to meeting you makes my mind race like crazy!! I know the moment you are born will change your Dad and I's lives forever, it's just hard to imagine how we are going to feel in that moment where our eyes meet for the first time. I am definitely beyond excited to see you and hold you. Having you in my belly will always be the biggest, longest, warmest hug I will ever be able to offer you, which is sort of bitter-sweet for me to think about! I have LOVED being pregnant with you, but I know I will love watching you grow and learn about this crazy world much much more. God has blessed my life so much already by sending you to us. Keep growing in there!

Love,
your Mom
