One of those

So it occurred to me that the people who actually read my blog are my closest friends and I also realized that I don't get to see you guys- like ever- since I'm down here in good old Tucson. So since I don't want anyone to be stunned when they see me, because I have been asked multiple times to do this, or maybe as proof that I really am pregnant, I'm going to post one of those "I'm X-weeks along and this is what I look like" photos.


I'm truly loving every second of this pregnancy business! Can't ya tell?
25 weeks and feeling blessed.

Oh the Joy

I haven't really given much detail about my pregnancy because frankly, I'm sure NOBODY cares- except Brenner and maybe my family? I probably overestimate my family's interest too but they have to put on a happy face anyway.

Anyway, I won't go into detail here because I have my other forms of documenting this new and exciting stage of life. I will just say that I'm one of those women who LOVE being pregnant! I love feeling her kick and wiggle. I know I'm supposed to be the source of comfort for her (when she's here) but right now I can't help but feel so calm and peaceful when I feel her wiggle. 

I love her so much already I can barely take it! Don't worry, I don't have an unrealistic fantasy that she'll be perfectly obedient, never get sick or hurt, or be a handful. I know I'll have moments where I feel overwhelmed and inadequate but at the same time she is already keeping me going. Those kicks just keep me dedicated to school and keep me singing primary songs (In hopes that she will somehow recognize them and my voice when she is born... I know but I'm going to do it anyway).

And to finish off this post, I'm going to add these two videos that I watch almost everyday from our ultrasound (taken about 5 weeks ago when we found out we're havin a little lady). Please watch carefully in the last one because you can see her little hand waving! Let that be a friendly departure from the both of us.
