What's in a date?

I sit here today trying to figure out why we, as human beings, feel the need to set arbitrary deadlines on everything we do...including having babies!
Tis true, today is our official due date; however, for whatever reason, this little girl isn't quite ready to take on the world, and I am perfectly okay with that. I am trying to set aside my selfish reasons for wanting her to be here, including not being pregnant anymore, and just trust that she will arrive when she is really ready. So for now, we are going along with life as usual; mom and I are still conquering household projects. We get bored and go shopping all day some days, but we continue to stay busy. Yesterday we pampered ourselves with pedicures. My pedicurist even painted pretty little flowers on my big toes so that I would have something pretty to look at while I am in labor!!

So despite the fact that we don't have any news to share, we can confidently say that our little girl is one day closer to being here!!!! :)
