Baby Thoughts

It's Monday already!! Where is the time going? We are already 9 days into June--I can't believe it. On one hand, I feel like I have SO LONG before the baby is born, and the time can't go by fast enough. When I think of how big my tummy is already, and how big I feel, I think--can I make it another 2 months? I can't wait until the baby is born, and to see her. I am also excited to be done being pregnant and to be able to eat whatever I want again. (by the way, a BIG slice of Heath Crunch pie is on my priority list of things to do after the baby is born :) We *hope* that Tayva adjusts well to the new baby and likes being a "helper". We are already praying that God would prepare her heart to have a baby in the house. Also, we pray he will prepare us to be attentive to her needs as well as the baby. So, anyway, some days I fell like I am ready to have the baby here right now--because I am so excited to see her, and because my body is becoming physically more and more uncomfortable.

Then I think of all the things I need to get done before the baby comes, and I think of waking up every couple hours to nurse the baby, and I think--wait a minute--I don't know if I am ready for this!! I like our routine now. Tayva sleeps all night, we play during the day, take a nap together during the day, and have a good routine down. Once the baby comes, that will all change. With this change in schedule, I know some wonderful changes will take place as well--now we get 2 beautiful faces to kiss, and double the joy children bring!!

So, as you can see, some days, I am so excited to have the baby and can't wait until she gets here, and on other days, I feel like she can take her time to get here. (I suppose this fluctuation of feelings could have something to do with pregnancy hormones--ya think?) At any rate, I know the Lord's timing is perfect, and she will come in due time.
