I can hardly believe how long it's been since my last post! It just goes to show how busy life has been as we prepare to become a family of 4!! I am less then 3 weeks from my scheduled C-section date of August 24th. I have mixed emotions......so excited to meet our baby boy, so nervous about the adjustment with Faith, so worried about ensuring that Faith never feels left out, and so ready to have my body back!
It's been a challenging pregnancy at times, though I can't complain compared to others. I have had a lot of the common aches and pains, but I'm most concerned about the blood pressure as that was an issue last time. I am now under watch as it is slightly elevated but am really hoping that it all works out and that I can still enjoy a healthy pregnancy until he's ready to arrive.
I am finishing one last work project and then that's it until I am somewhat adjusted and ready to get back to work with my Mom's help. I've felt very lucky to have such great clients and hope that continues after baby boy is born!
Faith fratured her elbow 3 weeks ago but fortunately just got the cast taken off tomorrow. There have been a lot of "small tramas" like that happening over the last month and so I feel like things have been turned upside down. So in addition to the normal preparation and nesting that one would go through at this stage, I've been tying up a bunch of loose ends. Faith continues to be an awesome little girl who makes me laugh daily! She definitely exhibits her "terrible twos" at times since she can be a bit stubborn but I would expect nothing less of the age. She has been such a wonderful little girl and I look forward to seeing her with her baby brother.
I've been really trying to enjoy every minute with her and with us as a family of three before things change. I hope that it will be a smooth adjustment but I know it will have its' moments of difficulty. I'm so excited to see what this baby will look like and I can only hope that we are as blessed as we have been with Faith!!
I will keep posting as much as I can, though I have a feeling that this little guy might have a different idea about when he arrives. In the meantime, I will just pray for the best!!
