Photo is Lancina at 24 weeks engaged in her favorite in utero activity: playing with her toes. I think this is what's she's up to these days while we all bite our nails anticipating her arrival.We're 10 days from our due date today, and Lancina seems to be quite settled in with no plans of an early entrance. I woke up this morning with a belly jutting out to the right, and I laughed to myself that she seems quite comfortable in there.
It's funny - every time Lance and I call our parents, they answer the phone with an element of happy alarm in their voices, and they respond with a little disappointment when we tell them there's no news. As everyone packs their bags and prepares for the big day (or night), little Lancina seems to be laughing at herself that she's just fine where she is for the moment. She's on her own schedule, and she doesn't seem terribly concerned with everyone else's excitement.
We started putting up the Christmas tree this weekend, and we plan to put the ornaments on tomorrow. That is, as long as Lancina doesn't decide to make her entry into the world tonight.
We'll see, but I'm not counting on it. I guess it kind of makes sense - perhaps she should just enjoy her worry free experience in utero. After all, there's plenty of time for the many "wonders of the world" awaiting her.
