The Waiting Game

I've hauled the vacuum up four flights of stairs and vacuumed every room of the house. 

I've mopped the floor, washed the woodwork and bleached the sinks.

I've cooked seven meals to freeze in addition to our regular dinners. 

I've washed the sheets, cleaned the fridge, stocked up on stamps, toilet paper,cat food, toothpaste and food of every sort. 

I've got lanolin, a breast pump, nursing pads, vaseline, rubbing alcohol, diapers, wipes, and a nail clipper all within arm's reach.

I've cut and colored my hair.

We've washed the cars and have assembled the infant carseat. 

We've packed our hospital bags with everything short of our toothbrushes. 

We're ready. 

Come on, baby!
