Waiting on our little Girl

I've been dilated to a 3 & 80% effaced for the past 2 weeks...on Wednesday, we shall see if that makes it 3 weeks.  My sewing machine has been used more in the last month than it has in the last 2 years.  I celebrated Harry Potters birthday with a butterbeer toast + got my braces off.  I cut 7.5 inches off of my hair + dusted off my paintbrushes.  Along with Ashley, I snuck into the basement of Bluebird just for kicks + I have let London paint my nails/toenails a few times too many.  My house almost started on fire + I went camping TWO times.  Blake & I went went to the fair for the first time together + I packed my hospital bag.  I put together activity packets for London to do while I nurse + London got the flu.  London & I found fall leaves on our walk + Blake has been B U S Y with school. 
Dr. Kirkman asked if I wanted to be induced on Wednesday.  I declined...wanting my body to go into labor on it's own.  However, he is going to strip my membranes Wednesday.  That put me into labor with London.  I can, but totally can't wait to meet our sweet new baby girl.  I am SO nervous to be a mama of two.  I get so worried about the littlest of things.  But, at the same time, I am SO excited to be a mama of two.  I can't wait to see this little girl + watch London with her.  I know I will instantly fall head over heels in love with her...just as I did with London. 
I've been having small contractions + cramps for the last few weeks.  
Everything is ready for her to come.  Room done.  Clothes washed.  Sewing projects done.
I can't believe I only have days or at the most 2 weeks left.  It went by so quickly!
Blake is such a hard worker.  He has been CRAZY busy with school.  Goes to school from 8-3:30 & then comes home & studies until midnight.  He is doing such a great job & I love him.  
He's stressed, I'm stressed.....but, it's totally worth it.  Even if I am going to pretty much be a lone ranger with two babies for the next 9 months. 
Come soon my sweet baby girl.  
I can hardly wait to meet you!
+ your big sis talks about you all day.
