Reflection

Well, we've got about 25 hours left until we start the induction. I'm really excited to finally see lil Ryan, especially the feet that I've felt kicking me for the past several months! I can't wait to see him in all of his cute outfits. I probably over bought, but I wouldn't be me if I didn't. :) I also can't wait to hear him cry for the first time, even though I'll probably get over that pretty fast...hehe. It makes me so happy to think that by the end of the week, he'll be sleeping in the crib that we picked out for him months ago and we'll finally be able to hold him.

On the other hand, I'm really nervous about the whole induction process. Since he's not really ready to come out yet, it increases my chances of a C-section. I keep on telling myself that no matter what way he physically makes his way into the world, we still have a baby in the end and that's all that really matters. It's all means to the same end, right?

The process to get to this end has been quite a journey. There have been so many people who have surprised me by their thoughtful words and actions, I am truly lucky to call them friends.

Thanks to all of you for your phone calls and emails just to check up on me, it really has made this time in my life more special. Thank you to all of those people who offered continual support and always made me feel better about what was going on.

Hopefully we'll be posting baby pics soon!
