We've obviously had a frustrating weekend here. Both of us keep getting faked out by these contractions, thinking it's finally coming, then nothing. Needless to say, I've been an emotional wreck all weekend & Edward's patience with everything is getting less & less. Don't get me wrong, he's been wonderful, but there is only so much both of us can take.
Today I was actually have a pretty good day. I got dressed somewhat nicely, managed to make us a nice lunch, get some laundry done, etc. Edward even agreed to let me have some much needed "Lizzie" time & go get a much needed pedicure (seriously, it's been awhile!). He told me to take the Altima. I just had a feeling that something would happen since I've been driving not so great lately.
Wouldn't you know it, I couldn't even back out of the driveway. I ran smack into the fire hydrant that's next to our driveway. The front driver's side is all smashed in. I don't even know how I did that much damage. Seriously, it was the absolute last thing I needed.
Edward won't let me go get my pedicure now because he doesn't think I can drive safely. I seriously hope this baby comes tonight then cause I can't stand the thought of not driving all week. It just won't happen! I'm so desperate for pretty toes that I even let Edward paint my toes. HUGE mistake. I had the nail polish remover out before they were even dry, he had done such an awful job.
I am upset that I did something so stupid, but honestly, I'm almost beyond caring right now. My mom also reminded me today that although the official due date from my ultrasound at 6 weeks is Feb 22nd, the ultrasounds I had at 20 weeks both measured Feb 16th, which means I'm due today. Since I never had a period since having Ava (I was nursing), the ultrasounds are all we have to go by on a due date.
Part of me is wondering if this baby isn't coming because we still don't have a name picked out for her. We went through one of the baby name books again last night & still came up with nothing. We do have a few names on our list, but none of them feel 100% right. We're kind of just hoping something comes to us when we see her.
Speaking of her, my mom is wondering if it is a boy after all because as she put it "only a boy would do this to his mother!" The ultrasounds really weren't all that convincing, but we've been planning for a girl so that would certainly throw things for a loop! Guess we'll just have to wait & see!

Not much longer now!! It's hard. *hugs*
I'm so sorry. Ugh. :( Yes, that's frustrating. I'm sorry about the mess your car is in now. Wish you could have gotten your pedicure. :( Maybe after the baby is born, you can have some "me time" and go out and get a manicure, pedicure, etc. while someone watches the baby! BTW ~ I saw a neat girl's name the other day: "Emaleigh." It's pronounced like "Emily," but it's so pretty and unusual with the way it's spelled.
