Monday again, and still waiting...

Here I sit still wondering what my baby girl looks like and when she was born. The weekends are terribly long, and most of the time I wish I could go to sleep and wake up on Mondays so that I can start waiting again. There is nothing to read on the board, there is nothing to read on the internet, I know the call isn't going to come, it just makes for a really long two days.

We worked on painting the full length mirror that will go in the corner behind the crib, and I think I will order a few more wall words. I want to order "dream" for the mirror. I finished the curtain panels, so need to install the medallions, and then I will be ready to hang the curtains. I think the curtains will make the room look so different, and really soften the room. Hoping the bedding will be ready soon as well. Hoping to go to Canton this week to get a dresser/changing table. Waiting to hear back from the furniture people to see if they think they have something that will work. I am anxious to get this in the room, as I really need the storage space and I want to hang some things on the wall, and don't want to do that until I have all the furniture exactly where it belongs. So we are making some progress on the room, and will post a picture when I get the curtains hung. I think it will really be the transforming piece.

Now I just need her to call!!!! pleeeeease, pretty please with sugar on top!!

Trying to patiently wait

Well we have been in the #1 spot now for a week, and it has gotten easier as the days have gone by. However there is this strange cloud hanging over the both us knowing that any minute that it can all change and we will know about our daughter and know what she looksl like. After all of this time it seems surreal that we are #1 and that our waiting will change any time now. I have moments of thinking they will skip us, that they will forget us, that we really are not in the coveted #1 spot. Then I move to wondering what she is going to look like, how old will she be, will she have lots of hair, how quickly will we get to her???

It is all very strange,exciting,overwhelming, anxiety inducing. But in the end, I can't wait to see her, to know her, and espcially to hold her. We have been waiting a long time for her, and I am ready to move to the next phase of this journey.
