EDD DAY
Well it has arrived! No not the baby but the 5th July our DUE DATE.
The date that every parent-to-be circles on the calender (well the women probably do anyway!). A day of great anticipation and excitement and yet probably for many just another day. It's not many parents that greet their new baby the day it is due. We're happy to be the exception to the rule though so I have been encouraging this baby to start making a move.
Today is also exciting for us as Bex arrives today. She will be a tired soul by the time she gets here having left NZ 38hrs before arriving in Nottingham. I think both she and I will need a nap this afternoon. So in all honesty it's quite alright if bubs doesn't turn up today.
Ryan is still betting on the birth date being the 7th of July. I'm not sure that I've said but he had a dream not long after we found out we were pregnant. This dream wasn't specifically about the baby but was along the lines of his world changing on the 7/7/7, so it was decided that this must be the day that our baby arrives as obviously from that day on our world will never be the same. It would certainly be convenient if bubs arrived this weekend giving us all, especially Ryan, chilled out time with the little one before he has to go back to work.

So come baby come!
Enter the world!
Begin the journey of your lifetime!
I know it's cosy in there but out here is just as good.
We have lots of love to give you.
We have hugs, we have kisses
We have eyes that will be content to simply gaze on you...
Hour upon hour, upon hour.
I look forward to the touch of your skin
I look forward to the softness of your hair
I look forward to discovering you
Your wrinkles, your toes, your fingers, your sparkly eyes
Your grin (no doubt as cute as your papas)
I look forward to the joy of seeing the creation of our love
And most of all of feeling a sense of touching heaven when we see and experience all this for the very first time.
Go well precious one.
See you as soon as you're ready.
Love ma
