Steve and I went to see Eclipse last night. We figure it's the last time we'll be able to go see a movie in a theatre for awhile, so we might as well live it up! I thought it was pretty good....not at good as the first two movies, but good nonetheless. I got a big bowl of buttery calorie filled popcorn and hoped that it would somehow send me into labor. Really all it did was make me feel ill though. Movie popcorn has got to be one of the most unhealthy things to eat in the whole entire world.....it sure is good though! :)

I woke up this morning to get a message from a friend that I've been playing phone tag with for the last few days. She had some good news to share with me and it literally made my whole day. I feel kind of like I've been in a constant bad mood because I am just getting so impatient to get this baby out of me and it was so good for me to think about something else and rejoice in the good things that are happening to the people that we love. Totally changed my mood and perspective.

I tried taking a long walk this morning hoping to walk this baby out of me. I forgot to factor in that I pretty much have to pee every 10 minutes at this point in life though and realized when I got 3/4 mile away from our house that from here on out I need to stick to just circling the block a few times.

Now, in a good mood and full of perspective I'm enjoying a beautiful morning sitting out underneath the shade of the giant tree in our front yard that Steve hates. I love the quiet of the morning partnered with a good cup of coffee and people watching as the neighborhood wakes up to walk their dogs, kids, jog and ride their bikes. So, so peaceful. I might not have that baby yet that I'm anxiously awaiting the arrival of, but I will enjoy the beauty of the day and bask in the goodness of God and how blessed I really am.
