We're Due In A Week...

...but it feels like it's months away.  It's getting really aggravating.  We pretty much did a stellar job of not getting too excited over "why can't it be the due date yet?!" through the first eight months, and were fine through the first few days of month nine.  But then E started having pre-labor symptoms that all the doofuses online say are indicators of being 2-4 weeks from delivery.  Well, it's been four weeks, lying jerks.  Also, when we found out she was dilated 1 cm a week and a half ago, it seemed like Matthew's arrival really was imminent.  Yet here we are 10 days later.  Don't get me wrong, E might still go into labor tonight.  Or she might go into labor next July.  Regardless, the waiting sucks.  Neither of us are really nervous about being parents or the pain of labor or having to be in a hospital or any of the other "normal" stuff soon-to-be parents worry about.  But we like structure.  And we like planning.  And we do not like wondering every day when this is going to happen.  It is not going to be a pleasant three weeks if we have to wait until the induction date.

WBU was taken tonight, but I'm in bed and the camera is in the other room.  You can see the predicament I'm in.
