Alive, Tired, and Babyless...
I just recently woke from my short afternoon nap to realize that I had 6 missed calls, all from concerned friends and family frantically asking why I hadn't picked up the phone or why the blog wasn't updated since Friday. The hysteria that babymo made her appearance without notice to anyone was apparently shared by many....and for that, my most sincere apologies for the lack of communication and unnecessary scare!
Rest assured though that babymo is still snugly and happily sleeping and playing INSIDE my tummy; I'm completely convinced that I've made too much of a comfortable home for her, which is why she's refusing to come out. Babymo better have more game than that since her ever resourceful momma has been maniacally googling everything under the sun to find information on bringing on labor naturally and getting her out!!! To give everyone a quick snapshot of what my tactics have been so far: I have eaten/been eating spicy foods, repeatedly bouncing on an exercise ball, doing lunges, and of course walking, walking, and more walking. All of these activities have been stimulating contractions, but not long enough for me to really believe that babymo is serious about coming out anytime soon...!
But now that I've given my unfortunate update that I'm still home, still pregnant, and still waiting...I'm off to eat my spicy dinner and then for a walk. Keep your fingers and toes crossed that this will help speed up the labor process...!
Oh and last but definitely not least...HAPPY BIRTHDAY KOREN! I know your birthday request was to have babymo share your birthday today, but I'm not so sure she's being entirely cooperative anymore. The night is still young, so hopefully she might hear your birthday wish and decided to make an appearance tonight. She and I will have another little talk-to and maybe, just maybe, she'll do it for you... :)

OK, ok, so you're still hanging in there. Like everyone else, I was checking the blog for the latest posting and wondered if you were at the hospital, too busy to update. Well, what can we say except she'll be here when she gets here. Rest up the miracle of Life is about to unfold!
