Anxious..

Justin and I finally registered for baby preparation classes today, and it hit me; I'm going to have a son in less than three months. I have no clue what the future has in store for me, what motherhood has in store for me. All I can hope for is that I try my best and that my best is good enough. Its an overwhelming emotion, this anxious feeling, the anticipation building up inside a person. It causes tears of joy to roll down one's face, the fear of the unknown is greater now than I have ever experienced.

Justin and I look forward to the day when we can finally look into our son's eyes and marvel in the little person that we have created. Regardless of the sleepless nights, the smelly diapers, and midnight feedings ahead; I can honestly say that this will be the biggest triumph in my 24 years of living. I can't wait to hear his coos and his sweet murmurs, his screams and his endless crying; every sound will be orchestrated into our biggest accomplishment, our son.

29 weeks!

Yay! only 11 more weeks to go! (hopefully) 3rd trimester has been very interesting, it basically feels like first trimester but with carrying a basketball up front! My morning sickness has been coming back more frequently, I am sensitive to smells again, and boy! am I tired! Baby has been moving around quite frequently, and his movements are becoming slightly painful/uncomfortable as he is getting much bigger. At my ultrasound last thursday, they projected him to be 2lbs 9 oz!

We had our baby shower a couple of weekends ago, and it was so great to have so many friends and family come and support us! We have most of the big stuff that we need for baby, now its just down to the details! So thank you to everyone who was able to come!

On non-baby news: I, (as in Stacy) am getting very ansy to ride some ponies! If I could go over one, just one jump right now, I would be a very happy person. Poor Sailor probably thinks that he will never be ridden ever again! Anyways, I hope everyone is in good health and spirits, check back in soon!
