I haven’t posted since June. Not because I feel blogging to be less important, I have just been finding other things a little more important this summer. Like having my husband home for the summer and soaking up every minute with our Little Miss A before Bébé 2 comes along. The countdown is on, and we more or less have 24 days before our new arrival.
We have spent time prepping for our new arrival which could be any day between now and the beginning of September. We have also been doing our best to balance work around the house, as it seems when it rains it pours with maintenance problems, while saving time to have fun going to the lake, playing in the sprinkler, visiting the zoo, or walking around town.
I am READY. Pregnancy is such an exciting time in life, watching your body grow and morph to enormous sizes, feeling wee little flutters to humongous kicks, all kinds of hormonal ebbs and flows, and an insatiable desire for sweets…oh wait, maybe that’s not a pregnancy thing for me.
I have enjoyed all that comes with pregnancy, but I am ready to have my body back. I am ready to be able to bend over without the aches, ready to be able to sleep flat on my back, ready to jog and exercise, ready to be more mobile again, and ready to be able to flounder around on the floor with Little Miss A and Handy J. But I’m also ready to hold that tiniest little bundle in my arms, see the similarities and differences between babe #1 and babe #2, ready to smell that fresh baby smell, ready for the all-nighters, ready to relive all of the new baby firsts, and ready to show #2 the world!
It is a marvelous blessing to have a child, a wonderful family, and a life full of love.
oh so with you lady!
and our due dates are SO close to one another- (I am on the 4th)
here’s to patience and to all that amazing anticipation of meeting a new little person.
