How many times have you heard that lil' ol' saying? Too many to count or remember, huh? Ever since we found out we are having a baby girl I have been so impatient! I want her here NOW!  It seems like my days just drag on and on and that each day gets slower and slower. I try to keep busy by doing extra cleaning projects, taking naps when needed, and staying busy with "getting ready" for her. However, it isn't helping. I am so anxious to see her and to start our lives with her. Even my youngest son said, "I can't wait to meet Kaitlyn." So, thankfully it isn't just me, it's legitimate that I'm not the only one who can't wait to meet her. And I REALLY can't wait to start the shopping for girl clothes, accessories, &  furniture. I know that if I start buying for her now it'll only make this waiting thing that much harder. A friend of mine sent me some cute onsies and I immediatly wanted to give birth!!! I know it's not possible, or it is but instead not safe, but shoot 4 months seems like forever! Anyone ever gone through this stage this bad? I was super excited about my boys, but I think b/c this is our first girl and the 1st one in 2 generations on my husbands side, that its making it harder to wait it out....I feel crazy at times.

In other news, we're all healthy again, or at least getting back to good health. DH has strep and pneumonia. Apparently his illness was so bad that his doctor told him at his follow-up visit that had he waited 12 more hours to come see him he could have died!!!!!!! Imagine my reaction!! His x-rays and blood work had showed some really bad things about this sickness, wosre than any of us, including his doctor, realized at the time. Adam was so sick, the sickest I had ever seen him. He took an entire week off from work and just laid in bed. He took 9 showers one day b/c that was the only way he could get through the day. :-( His doctor had seen 8 adult men around Adam's age that same week and 2 had already died. It's crazy about all this pneumonia and how bad it is around here. Thankfully, the boys didn't have any of it. Their allergies were the pits! DS2's asthma was really bad that he was on his nebulizer about 6 times a day and his dosages for his asthma medication was doubled for 2 weeks. That's a lot of meds! DS1 is still nasal-y (sp) but feeling better. The blessing in it all, besides Adam making it through & the kids not getting pneumonia or strep, was I never once got sick. I was tired, but that was expected. God is good!
