alive

Last night while I was sleeping, Chad watched my belly and was amazed by Eden. In our family prayer tonight he even said:
"...thank you for Eden, and that she is so excited to be alive..."
I had to laugh cause I literally do feel her excitement.

I am just shy of 36 weeks. Can you believe it? I cant. It has flown by.

How am I feeling? Awesome, I'll spare you the leaky details {those I save for Tasha} but really I just have the typical end-of-pregnancy aches and pains and am so grateful.

I hasn't really hit me that she will be here so soon.
Am I ready? Is anyone really completely ready to have a child, let alone another? Guess we will find out soon. All I know is I am excited to see this little girl, I love her so much already. I know I have my friends, family and most importantly my Heavenly Father to guide me through this new stage of motherhood. I don't have fear cause I have faith....but is it ok to be a little nervous?

I am just shy of 37 weeks and can't wait to have this baby out. I'm sure he feels the same - he doesn't have as much room these days for his little dance parties. :)

That's always my favorite part of pregnancy, Robby and I have spent hours watching my belly!
