Our Last Days As A Couple

Interesting title yeah? Well, it’s not what you might think. Of course, I’m referring to the fact that any day now we could have our baby, and become a 3-unit family. He still hasn’t blessed us with his presence, and instead has chosen to make us crazy with anticipation, anxiety, fear, and excitement.

Our due date was April 6th, which means he’s now almost a week and a half overdue. Which is enough to make anybody go nuts.

Right now is a very interesting time for us. It feels like we are going on some kind of strange vacation. It’s hard for us to plan work for tomorrow, or anything for that matter – ‘tomorrow’, because who knows if we will have a ‘tomorrow’. Tomorrow could be the beginning of this huge new world called parenthood.

Silvia is hanging in there, but getting increasingly nervous, and anxious. She’s really excited to see the baby, and to be over with pregnancy, to fit into her old clothes again, to be able to sleep on her stomach, and not have to start a huge ordeal to just turn sides while she’s sleeping – but is worried about labor and giving birth.

What else is there to say, we are both very anxious, excited, fearful, and happy to be almost done as a couple. ☺
