Good medicine

During this first week of blogging, I have discovered that a blog may be good medicine. A very good friend of mine was supposed to come for a visit next week and stay for almost a week. She canceled this week, for a variety of reasons. In my pregnant, weepy state, I am longing for a visit with family or an old friend, and needless to say, was devasted by the news. But, how fun it has been to hear from family members through this blog. I appreciate your comments.

Yes, the big delivery day is coming...about six and a half weeks away now. I feel like I should still be able to do all that I normally do in a day, but the truth is, I am really slowing down. I was hoping to work until tax day, but that's not going to happen. So, starting next week, I look forward to a month with my little Luvs before her world as she knows it changes forever. And mine and Nagre's too.

Welcome to the blog world. I have so many blogspots bookmarked it takes me forever to read them all. But I love keeping in touch and getting to know my extended family through it. So welcome. And we will be counting down with you cause Missy and Julie are due about the same time!

The entire school year?!? That really puts it into perspective, doesn't it? I found out I was expecting the last week of August - August!... way back when it was sunny and hot outside! I am so glad pregnancy doesn't last forever... it just SEEMS like it does.

You are in the home stretch! Did Addie go early? There is always hope. My babies have always, always come before their due dates...I think God knew that one second OVER my due date would put me out of emotional commission! I'm so excited! Take it easy these last few weeks. Sleep lots, order people around, and eat ice-cream. You deserve it!

I can't even pretend to know how your life will change in six weeks, but I know how fast they grow. I can't help craving a new baby myself--and the sweet peace that only a new baby [and the humility of the overwhelming experience it all is] can bring into the home. I am so excited for you!

Six weeks? We have one week left. Lucky for us, Ian has just started to sleep through the night.

I am so excited for you and Nate! Can't wait to see the little one. You are going to love having two...It is so much fun. I can't imagine life without any of mine now..(well, except in the middle of the night when all three are screaming, and all I want to do is go to sleep, then I can imagine it..but, lets not go there!)

I am glad you have joined the blogging world. It is nice to keep in touch with family!

Six more weeks-- or less now, right? Do you know what you are having? Is it a secret? Will you post pictures of this new little one? So many questions!!

Welcome, Nicole!! Good job on the baby shower. It was such fun. I can't wait for you to have your baby. Do you realize our boys will only be 2 weeks apart? We will have to hang out together with Sarah more. It will be a great summer. Hang in there!
