38w2d - 1 year anniversary

Today is the 1 year anniversary of my mom's death. It's been a long, difficult year, but I also look back at all the wonderful and exciting things that have happened, which of course makes being without my mom that much more difficult as well. I wish I could go to the cemetery today, but with work and it getting dark early, it wasn't possible. If I haven't had the baby by this weekend, I'll try and go then. Regardless, I still miss her a lot and wish she could be here with me as I have this baby. I know she would have been a great grandma and I know she will be watching from heaven as I give birth and we raise Noah. Luckily I have lots of good family and friends!!!!

In baby news, I have starting contractions...and not just braxton hicks contractions, ones that actually feel like cramps. Sadly they come and go and the closest they ever get to each other is about an hour apart so no real labor yet. From what I understand, I can go for weeks like this or I could give birth tonight, so no real indication of when things will get moving. For now, I'll just try to rest and relax and wait until we get to meet our sweet baby boy!!!
