Things and things.

While waiting for baby, Nathan and I decided to try to get some things done this weekend! We went to Scalini's to try the world famous labor-inducing eggplant parmesan (that was supposed to make me go into labor today at 6:20pm... clearly didn't work). It was very tasty though! And it's also the exact same restaurant as Provino's. 

Then today (Labor Day!) we walked the mall for a few hours to get baby back in his lower position. He had creeped back up into my ribs and that was not fun! So I ate some spicy food, walked a couple miles, at some more spicy food for dinner, and partially decorated for fall. 

I really am happy to have these easy going date days with my husband before the baby comes. We are both definitely more than ready to meet him though! 

I thought a lot tonight about growing older. When we are little it seemed like Summers lasted years and that I would always "have time" to do things later. Nathan and I were trying to figure out how you can change your perception and "slow" down time like when we were little. The only thing I can think of to do is to not be so task oriented in day to day life and relax a little more. But I don't know. It makes me tearful to think of my childhood as gone and that I will never have it back. I guess I understand why people live through their children. It's like a second chance. I am ready to meet my son and enjoy his childhood with him! 

Praying daily for an early (healthy) arrival!
