Samuel Joseph Mills

This is our new addition to our family. He entered this world on April 10th at 11:18 PM. He weighs 8 lbs 11 oz and is 20 inches long. I'm so happy he's finally here. :)

hmmm

So I'm just sitting here at the U waiting for Mike to be done with class. I'm at a loss of what to do. Since I've stopped working I've tried to keep myself busy. I've cleaned, read, played sudoku, surfed the internet, gone to Liz's house, and sometimes have just sat and stared at the walls. I think I've come to a standstill of what I can do now.

I've finished the series I was reading. I've run through all my sudoku books (plus I got tired of it), I'm sick of cleaning, you can only surf the internet so much, and staring at the walls, well you know how boring that can be. Going to Liz's hasn't exhausted its limits yet luckily.

But I guess that's why I tried coming up to the U today to have a change of scenery. Granted I'm still just sitting around waiting, but at least here I can watch people and make fun of them in my head. ;) Too bad Mike isn't here to join in the laughter. :) It's pretty hilarious what some people will do when they think no one is watching.

Anyway it's kind of ironic when you sit down and think about how much waiting we do in life. Not only am I waiting for my little Samuel to finally make his GRAND entrance into this world, which I'm sure that's what he's waiting for, but I wait for my doctor appointments to arrive, and then you wait in the waiting room, in the grocery line, in traffic, for a new movie or book to come out, for an event to start and last of all I always wait for yet another contraction to come on. In the midst of all this waiting we find things to entertain ourselves with. You've already read my list of what I've done, and yet we still get to wait and we always get through it. That waiting period always ends sometime for that certain thing, but then it starts all over again with something else. So since I've been waiting all my life with many things, then of course I'm going to be able to wait for my beautiful baby boy to be in my arms.

Oh how I LOVE these waiting games.

Update

I was just thinking about putting a picture up of what I look like. I was going through my pictures and just laughing at my progression. I used to be so SMALL!!! That ain't the case anymore, but it's all for a good cause. I wouldn't have it any other way! :)
