Waiting Game...

My due date was yesterday and... yep, I'm still pregnant!  I don't know why I'm still surprised every morning when I wake up and realize I still haven't had my baby.  Immediately after my final exam today (side note: HOORAY!), I started trying a few tricks to get this little man out because my maternity leave is ticking away and more importantly, I'm dying to meet him!

Step 1: Long, strenuous walk. In the rain.



(Found two tiny dogs - again!  I have found one of the dogs 4 or 5 times now and returned it to its owner... some spirits are meant to run free, I guess!  Little gypsies.)


After at least an hour of going up and down hills, she faceplanted.

Step 2: Spicy food.



Step 3: Plop in front of the computer and watch YouTube because I've exhausted myself.


Step 4: Take videos of my creepy cat.  




She does this obnoxious crying on a daily basis.  Is this normal?!


Okay, so the last two aren't tricks at all.  They're just me being bored and anxious.  Well, I'm about to make a labor playlist (lots of Rihanna... as in her entire "Loud" CD + her new song with Drake "Take Care") but I figure I will also listen to my Jack Johnson/Dave Matthews and country Pandora channels as well to mix it up a little.  I'm hoping that having my jams will keep me sane.


Any tips of getting the little guy going?  I'm ready... so ready!
