My Week(194) in iPhone Photos
I hate everything.
I’m still pregnant. I haven’t managed to shake the baby even the littlest bit loose since before my due date, so we’re waiting it out a bit longer. The good news is E’s departure date keeps getting pushed back so he’s not going to miss the birth – he still might have to do a mad dash to the hospital to get there but he shouldn’t be At Sea.
The other good news is my house has never been so clean and well organized, since my poor mother has been trying to keep busy instead of just sitting on the couch staring, waiting for me to pop.
Sunday:
Mommy I’m a walrus! A turkey walrus!
Obsessed with the new bathmat
The kids are enjoying the clean, newly made-over bathroom too
Monday:
I want to buy everything too, buddy
Princess Grumpypants
Well, that explains the grumpy pants
Tuesday:
Ikea is fun for everyone
Making herself at home (more Ikea)
Bedtime stories
Wednesday:
Bounce house center smiles
I’M MAKING POOR CHOICES smiles
Thursday:
Finishing up errands I NEVER thought I would get done before the baby came
OK MY TOES LOOK NICE I CAN GIVE BIRTH
Evening aquarium visit
Friday:
3.5 hours in L&D for tests, NO BABY
To the pond for some fish-catching (we caught no fish)
I enjoy sunsets and long walks on the curb trying to get the baby to FALL OUT
Saturday:
Infant seats are useful, even without an infant
Trapped in my seat by bins of baby clothes that are ALL ORGANIZED now
We actually did even more stuff not pictured. As much as I want to just crawl into bed and sulk until I have a baby, doing stuff is better for me and the kids and my very patient mother. Although I’m starting to lose any semblance of motivation and the bed-crawling thing is looking better and better.
Since I’m NOT having a baby I’ve been editing photos and might actually have some non-iPhone posts up. UNLESS I AM IN LABOR RIGHT NOW IS THAT A CONTRACTION? (No.)

Ikea is amazing. Did you ever see that movie 500 Days of Summer, where they kind of play house in Ikea?
And tell the ginger bebeh to be an outside baby soon :).
Girl, I have been waiting… Ha ha as a recent mom of 3 (youngest 5months) I so know the feeling and I’ve been scouring social media waiting to hear the good news and relief! I’ll keep checking and add some prayers for a fast and smooth delivery. You deserve it after this baby is making you wait So long’
I love reading your posts. You are in my thoughts and prayers. I can’t wait to meet the new precious Ginger baby!!!!!!!!
My midwife gave me great advice when I was at the end of my last pregnancy- she said if you go to the grocery store, walk around with a pickle jar. That way if your water breaks, you can just throw it down on the ground and say “How did THAT happen?!!”
Good luck, these final days are so long. Glad E will be home!
Here’s hoping that baby comes soon (or has already arrived, fingers crossed). I’m 36+6 and reading this post has put things into perspective, am also hoping for an early birth, but suspect it won’t be to be. Anyway, best of luck and enjoy it when the time finally begins xx
