Dani is now over 39 1/2 weeks pregnant. We were really hoping Brylie would be born last Friday; my last day of work for the week was Thursday and I didn't work again until Tuesday; we didn't have school until today; we were already prepared with clothes, a bassinet/changing table, diapers, stroller/carseat, etc; Dani's mom was on her way to Utah to be there for the birth; and to be honest, we were getting a little bored with nothing to do (although spending time together walking, watching movies, and cleaning, cleaning, cleaning was lovely).
Needless to say, Brylie didn't come Friday. Nor did she come Saturday, Sunday, Monday, or Tuesday. Today we had our first day of school (and no Brylie). I feel like Dani could give birth anytime, but it's also entirely possible that she won't give birth ever. Did anyone else feel that way with their first kid? It's a weird feeling, knowing in my mind that Brylie will be born within a matter of days, yet not totally comprehending that things will actually be different then, we'll always have that Brylie kid with us, and the thing we've wanted for months (and years) is finally going to happen.
Perhaps tomorrow we'll have big news to report to the world... and perhaps not.
Get used to waiting - it isn't just with the first kid, either! You'll be a great dad, and Dani a great mom! We're also excited for baby news, though I'm sure not on pins and needles like you two are. Good luck!
