Waiting for Baby Mia

I have so many thoughts and emotions about being a Mom. You get pregnant and then you think you have all of this time, and you do but can you really get ready to have a baby? I am not sure, but I am trying to embrace it all. I am not really sure how many more days or weeks I have, but right now I am spending time reading and preparing spiritually to be a MOM. I have been praying and asking God to give me wisdom and to continue to strengthen my Marriage in this next season of life. It has been a really awesome time for me. I can't wait to bring life into this world, and to show her all the good that there is still left in it. Now the question is when, will that be???

Our Baby Shower

Over the last weekend I have had two baby showers in VA. They were so awesome. I was showered with lovely gifts for Baby Mia. It was so much fun to see everyone even though it was a blizzard outside. Thank you everyone for coming. Over the weekend and on our drive home, I pulled a muscle and have had to be in bed rest for couple of days. It has been really hard. I went to the doctor today and they said that I am measuring a week or two ahead of schedule. Her head is down and she is in a great position. She will be here very soon. It is so neat and I am really happy to be getting close!!! All family, pack your bags early, be ready at least by the first week in March!

Snow, Snow, Snow

I just arrived back in NC, from the 2010 snow of VA. It actually came and I was stuck there for two day's longer than anticipated. However, I had a great time going to a business conference and visiting with my family. One special visit that I had was with my GREAT GRANDPARENTS. It was so good to see them and they are really excited about the baby. This weekend are my baby showers which are going to be a Blast. The biggest frustratin that I have it trying to sleep. Yikes, it is really hard. I toss and turn all night. However, I can deal with it. I am just taking it one day at a time. I cant wait to see many of you at my shower.
