Whoa... right? My belly is getting bigger by the moment and this is how I prefer to spend my time these days. I'm pretty sure I was about this big when James was born. Yikes! The other day I was filling my glass with water and I caught Paul looking at me. I asked him what he was looking at and his response was, "a lot". Gotta love it! This is the stage of pregnancy when you feel like a whale. Everything takes effort. Just putting on my shoes gets me winded. But as I sit here typing I am watching my belly dance. Now that is super cool! Even though this is my second time around it is still wildly amazing to think that there is actually a living little being in there. It's almost hard to wrap my mind around.
I can't wait to meet this little guy. I wake up at night wondering what he is going to look like and how he is going to fit into our family. I am simultaneously excited and scared of the change this will bring to our lives. I am sad to lose my one on one time with James and yet I know he is going to love having a little brother. Life will be different for sure... crazy and wonderfully different.
Behold, children are a gift of the LORD,
The fruit of the womb is a reward.
Like arrows in the hand of a warrior,
So are the children of one’s youth.
How blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them;
They will not be ashamed When they speak with their enemies in the gate.
~Psalm 127:3-5
