The time is near...

As I sit here thinking that the time is almost here for Payton to make his appearance, I can't help wondering if we have everything that we need. In the last week or two I have ordered some diapers and wet ones, so I know I have those coming to me. I also need to order some bath stuff and then I think I will have the bare minimum that we will need. I'm 35 weeks today.  So I have roughly 5 weeks until he gets here to make sure that we have everything. Sometimes I sit and wonder if he will come early and give us a January baby or if we will have our February baby. Also will he decide to come on his actual due date and be a valentine baby.

Also I sit and try to think if we are going to give him the nick name of PJ or make it just Payton.  I keep telling James we need to make a decision so our family and friends will know if it's okay or not to call him PJ.  Part of me is glad that we are not giving him a middle name that starts with a "B". I know our families probably wouldn't be able to help it by calling him PB&J... Instead they would get a chance to call him PJSquared. (don't even think about it, you know who you are).

I also sit and wonder how he will do on his first long plane ride. Going from Bethel to Chicago with multiple layovers and most likely flying standby. I'm just getting stressed thinking about it haha. At least at the end of all the flights there we get to see our family who we will not have seen in almost 2 years and get to introduce a new family member. Have to think of the positives. The only ones on my side of the family that we might not get to see would be my brother and his family. My brother and his wife are expecting their second child around the second week of June. Unless the baby comes early and they get permission to travel for GA to MI. I have not seen them in almost 2 years this coming February. My nephew was only 4 months old. Which I find kinda ironic since Payton will be around 4 months old when introduce him to everyone. I know I think of the strangest things sometimes. I have way to much time on my hands right now. I'm sure once Payton is born, I won't be focusing that much on my trip haha.

At the end

It's 8:05 pm the night before my due date. I can't believe I'm the end of my pregnancy. I know that Payton can be late, but knowing the end is near is kinda nice. I've enjoyed being pregnant, but these last 3 weeks have been really hard for me. I not the biggest fan of surprises. I have to know what or when something is going to happen. James has a hard time surprising me because I'm always trying figure out what he is doing. *He did surprise me today with some chocolate and a Valentines day card*  Anyways knowing that Payton could come any time excites me, but also terrifies me. I mean when in the world is he going to show. I wish I could just be give a date saying that he will be born that day. Not a due date since most babies are not born on their actual due date. Poor James, I've kept him up numerous time in the past few weeks freaking out, stressing, etc. over this whole not knowing and knowing that I can't do anything about it really. God knows and I h...

Trusting.

Well, I've been going down the road of life trying to trust God in every situation. I'm praying and hoping that my husband can get a job soon, seeing since we are out of money and have bills still coming, mostly my student loans. I'm struggling with all of this just because James doesn't have a job yet. I'm sure I wouldn't be as stressed out if we had some money flow coming in.   During all of this I think back to when my dad had his open heart surgery 9 months ago. My mom was also trusting and believing that God would provide during that time. My parent's had bills coming in and had no money to pay them. My dad had his surgery on the monday before thanksgiving in 2010. My mom would come home during the week stay and there would be money in the mail for her and it was always enough to get her through.  I wish I could be like my mom and have the faith that she did. I've been very emotional during all of this. I haven't gotten a good night rest since...

might be good-bye for now, but not forever.

Almost every night I have a hard time falling asleep. Half of the time it's because I just am not tired enough to fall asleep, the other half is because my brain won't shut off. I always have different things that I want to write about in a blog, but then by the morning I forget about it. During the day I think oh I should write a blog.  I told James that I want to write one blog per week for the whole year. He just laughed at me and said, you'll run out of things to write about. Right now I feel like he is write, but on the other hand I feel like I can write a lot. Everything I want to write about is getting pregnant and the separation period with James being in a different village. So I guess I won't be writing a blog for awhile, since my last I don't know how many blogs have been about getting pregnant and my separation time. I don't want to bore all the people that might actually read this. So unless I can think of something else, you might not hear from me ...
