I Think Only Inomniacs, Drunks and Parents Are The Only People Up At This Time Of Night
Well, we have one day left until the baby arrives. It's now 3:00 AM and I am up as I have been the past few nights. Anticipating the arrival of your first will snap you out of sleep and you will find it hard to relax your mind enough to go back to sleep. I can't imagine what tomorrow night will be like knowing that the following morning we'll have a baby. I'm sure I'll be on here again. We're very ready and even got our hopes up when I had some pretty major contractions earlier this evening. No such luck on going early. We're taking tomorrow off to enjoy our time together and finish up some last minute errands. We're trying hard to focus and come up with some names. I guess the reality of the situation has come to us finally. It's so different to think that the baby can come at any time and you're always wondering, "is this it?". However, when you've schedule the day and time of the birth, you never wonder, "is this it?", you just wait until the days count down and hold on. It's such a strange feeling, one that I am not particularly fond of. We hope that you will all keep us in your thoughts and prayers that everything goes well and that the baby is healthy and well. We'll keep you all posted.

Well hopefully you'll catch some zzzz's today and tonight. You know we will all need one more shot of the belly before you start to shrink again.
It is rather surreal, to imagine that this time tomorrow, you will have a new member to your family...have changed it's diapers, nursed it to sleep and taken your first family photos.
All the while, you will have a whole horde of friends and family thinking and praying for you all morning - and anticipating the news arrival of your first born. Now, that's something you are blessed with with the scheduling of a birth. :)
Love to you, Jones Family. We are counting down the days!
