Sappy Saturday

It's amazing to me how fast this pregnancy is progressing. Wasn't it just yesterday that I was setting up this blog & announcing to the world that I was pregnant?

Well it's already been 30 weeks and it feels like any day now I'll be pushing out this tiny, fragile human being from inside me. I'll be responsible for his well being in every sense and I honestly can't wait. It's exciting and nerve wrecking all at once, but I've always known I wanted to be a mommy so I welcome all of these emotions with open arms. :)

Teth Adam is definitely growing and getting stronger. Every day I feel him bounce, roll, punch, kick and bop around as if my belly were his own personal playground. I love being woken up by these movements and I cherish the rare moments that he allows his dad to feel them too.

I don't take any second of this experience for granted. I thank my lucky stars every day that I am having a healthy pregnancy and that I'll get to be a mommy very soon. My life is about to change in ways that I can't even imagine yet but I'm not scared. I don't think I've ever wanted anything more in my life. The fact that I get to share this with the man I love is just icing on the (vegan-friendly) cake. ;)

My hormones have been all over the place lately, which probably explains the sentimental post today. Recently not everything has been *ideal* at home but I close my eyes, put my hands on my growing belly and I am reminded the wonderful blessing that has been given to me...and right now that is all that matters.
