this little life

Sometimes I think I can literally feel my stomach stretching. And I’m starting to question how it’s possible for my body to handle 6 more weeks of this. Nothing feels the same – body, mind, emotions…all to do the most important thing in this life…to give life. Definitely worth the insanity. He’s not even here yet, but I already know he is the best thing that could happen to me.
The unknown is terrifying and yet exciting all at the same time. I choose to face the lion, straight on. The best adventure I’ll ever be apart of. Thank you for letting me be your mama. I’m truly honored.

6 more weeks to go!

I love you,
Your mama xo

these little legs

It’s amazing that as more time goes on, I feel like time is going backwards. Time has gone by so quickly, but I still feel like I’m going to be pregnant forever. I know I have a real tiny little human being growing inside of me… But I think I’m in denial!
His movements are more pronounced, I can literally see my whole stomach shaking when he moves. It’s a crazy thing to experience. But, It wasn’t until his dad was trying to determine what body part was what, that I freaked out a little. Wait, you’re telling me this baby has a head and arms and legs!? When I think about it like that… It does not seem ok that this is happening. I don’t like to think, oh that’s his head in my ribs and etc. It’s too bizarre for my brain to process.
He must be so tiny in there. I feel I’m running out of room for him to grow! I just can’t wait to hold him. Hurry up little guy! (Well, kinda)

7 more weeks to go!
I love you,

Single Digits

I can’t believe I’ve finally made it to the single digits. Time has gone by so fast. I can remember sitting in bed and feeling his little kicks for the first time. Now they are just apart of my every day. I love them so much, I wonder if I will miss them when he’s no longer in there…
Today, I am conquering the task of washing his little clothes and putting them away. Right now they are spread out over a chair next to me bed. I love waking up in the morning, turning over and looking at his little things. It makes me a little sad thinking about putting them away. But it must be done!
Presents for my little monkey are starting to arrive! I can’t believe the time has come! I feel so blessed and honored to be his mama. Can’t wait to hold him. I hope I’ll be able to put him down.

9 more weeks to go! (Ahhh!)
I love you,
Your mama xoxoxoxoxo
