So as time goes on in this pregnancy I am realizing or coming to grips with several things....
-After wanting to avoid all food weeks 6-16, I now have an appetite of a 14 year old boy, eating more than my hubby at many meals, even occasionally finishing his plate!-Elli will not come with a snooze button so I better stop using the one on my cell phone and instead begin waking up to loud noise that were programed to make me do just that.
-Matt takes his job of taking care of his family VERY seriously (which I love!)
-40 weeks isn't really that long of a time when you are 20 weeks, but I imagine it will feel like an eternity when I'm around say, 38 weeks.
-I still don't like blood work and I am already dreading my August appointment because the pleasantry has already been promised
-Feeling my girl move inside of me is quite possibly one of the coolest things in the whole wide world
-There are so many people who already love Elli! (Especially the 4 people she is making grandparents, the 2 people she is making uncles, and the one lovely lady she is making an aunt!)
We are so blessed to have the family and friends that we do!
-This little girl has already captured her Daddy's heart... There are so many ways...that is probably a post in and of itself.
-Hearing my Matthew read the Bible to Elli and pray over her makes me cry 99% of the time.
-I have this feeling that being a mommy is going to be a lot like marriage: one of the best, hardest, most challenging, most rewarding things ever.
If I sat here long enough I would think of more, but we'll save that for another time!
