In just 7 more days I will finally get to hold you in my arms. I just can't believe that the moment I have been praying for is finally going to be here. Words can't express the way I feel.
All my friends have told me that the last few weeks of pregnancy are really difficult. The inability to sleep, being uncomfortable 24 hours a day, and the ranging hormones can really take a toll on a Mommy. I have to say they were all 100% correct. However I want to take a moment to step away from all my begging to God to please send me into labor and focus on the things I will miss about being pregnant:
1. I love that since I have been pregnant with you I never feel like I'm alone. Just the thought of you living and growing inside of me makes me feel special.
2. I love that your Daddy talks to you everyday by leaning over and speaking directly to my tummy. Then he covers it with kisses. This reminds me of how much he loves us both.
3. I love the feeling of you moving inside of me. I cherish every kick and turn. No matter how much it hurts sometimes. I giggle every time you get the hiccups. I love to watch my tummy move when you are up and active.
4. It will miss parking in the "expectant mother parking" at CVS and Market Street. Sometimes it's a wonderful treat to park so close.
5. I get to wear Juicy track suits and flip flops everyday without anyone making a comment. I don't know if I can go back to wearing business suits and high heels.
6. I have an excuse to drink chocolate milk because you need the calcium.
7. My finger nails have never looked so good and my hair is growing like a weed.
8. Taking a nap whenever I feel like I need one.
9. Talking to you all day and telling you about everything I do. It doesn't even cross my mind that I ask you questions you'll never answer. I know in my heart you love to hear me sing.
10. Chris and I talking about what we think you will look like and how our life will change once you are here.
I could list a million things but I don't want bore the heck out of everyone who reads this blog.
Looking forward to holding you and covering you with kisses soon!
Love,
Mommy
