Hi



Somewhere between March and now, I've lost my brain. I can't confirm exactly when, but it's been at some point during this pregnancy. My body is tired and my brain capacity has reached it's max. Oh, and we are welcoming our newest addition tomorrow. TOMORROW.


*We hosted Thanksgiving this year. 6 adults and 5 children sleeping in our house for three nights. It was gloriously overwhelming and crazy and we went through a lot of milk. Even though it was our 7th Thanksgiving since my parents' separation and divorce, it's still painful. Our hearts still have healing to do.

*I've joined the "I'm in labor and got checked into the hospital just to be sent home" club. That's not a fun club to be in. I think I'm going to drop out.

*Yesterday's ultrasound predicted a 9 pound 4 ounce baby, her head in my rib cage. Hence the tired body I suppose.

*I have two more presents to wrap and will be D-O-N-E with all that stuff. Amazon is AWESOME.


*Little One is insanely precious to my heart. I can't imagine the change that's about to take place when we bring bebe home. My heart kind of breaks and then it fills up to the brim with love and gratitude for God's blessings.


Next time you hear from me, well, let's face it...it will probably be a little while. BUT, our family will have grown. We'll have some full hands. And full hearts as well.

Amazon IS amazing :) As a C-section mama myself, I say two things: one, i didn't find it near as scary as other people made it out to be {although mine was an emergency section}, and two-- do not try to lift little bit until you are fully healed. That weight restriction is serious business. Lots of prayers headed your way tomorrow-- for you, your sweet little toddler, and that precious blessing. XO.
