Eight Months!

My sweet Baby Boy,

I cannot believe that it’s been 32 weeks already. I cannot believe that for eight months we’ve been loving you and praying for you and counting the days down until we meet.

I am so excited that we’ve made it all 32 weeks. This is an important number my sweet boy. You see I was already in the hospital with your big sister at this point. I was already very sick and scared and full of worry. So to make it to 32 weeks and be healthy, more importantly YOU being healthy, is a big accomplishment. A big sigh of relief. A big WOO-HOO we’ve done it!!! And I am especially thankful to have felt your BIG kicks and rolls in the wee hours of the morning this morning. Such a blessing to know that you’re still growing and getting stronger and bigger and fatter every single day you’re still inside of me.

I had an appointment last week and my blood pressure was a little on the high side. Dr. Chris wasn’t alarmed, but I was. I think I checked it 20 times that evening!! It went down once I left the doctor’s office, but still a big scare. We also chose your birthdate. Such an odd, but exciting thing to do. I can officially count down the days to your arrival little one – and I cannot wait!!

Keep growing and getting bigger and stronger in there baby. Mommy can’t wait to meet you, but I can wait the 6.5 weeks until you’re here!!

Love and kisses from the outside,

Mommy
