March 4th

Well now, so many things to catch up on!
Sunday March 2nd we had a little false alarm with little mister. I wasn't sure if my water was leaking (broke-slow leak) and so we had had to pack a couple of bags for in case he was coming and head down to  Northwest's child birth center! When we got there they hooked me up to the heart monitor to monitor baby's heart beat, and then did an exam to see if my water was leaking. The nurse explained since I'm only 34 weeks that if he did come he'd most likely have to stay in the nursery until he was healthy enough to come home with us. I felt so nervous-I was super nauseous that he maybe coming this early out of the blue ha ha I'm hoping he can stay in until we can at least have our baby shower and bath supplies for him! ha ha.

Today we cleaned up the house spotless, or well mostly me because Ben finally got the email from the job he applied for back in August 2013. He has an interview on the 18th of March so prayers for him that if this is the job he is supposed to have then all things will fall into place. We are so excited, and I am so proud of him. This is a job he's already done the physical for so it's all interviews and then the job if they like him.

My whole pregnancy I've been praying and having a feeling little one will be coming a little early, whether it's at 37 or 38 weeks. I'm sure hoping still he does! I can't wait to meet him, and see what he looks like...the fact I've created a little mini Ben and I, I'm just waiting in suspense!

That's all for now...God has been so good to us, it's all in His timing.

Hiccups

I thought I would have skipped today's blog, but at about 10:50 pm tonight (five minutes ago) I finally felt our baby hiccup for the very first time in my tummy!!!!

I read that when you feel a baby hiccup in your tummy that means their lungs are clearing out the amniotic fluid and are getting ready for delivery! We're 31 weeks and 3 days today. I'm praying that he comes between 37-38 weeks. We are so excited!

Lord I'm amazed.

By how you love me.

I guess I could get used to blogging out my feelings every day.
Today has been a whirlwind of emotions.
Today I got to meet my friend Chelsy's little newborn Ellie.
Seeing her gave me so much joy to meet my own little son I can barely contain myself now!
Then later this evening I wasn't feeling well and started crying, where Ben just hugs me...
to now listening to more and more worship, laying in bed and feeling baby kick and push and dance in my tummy.
I'm amazed Lord, that I would have a baby who loves worshiping you in my womb already.
That he gets so much more active when I listen to worship then anything else, I've been praying over him so much lately, that he would love you with all his heart and know you the way Ben and I do.
Keep kicking me babe, even though it hurts sometimes haha I love you so much little one I can't wait to meet you!

He loves the sound of music.

I remember every ultra sound so clearly, from the very first one where he looked like a kidney bean at 7 weeks, to the 12 week one where I first saw a baby...little arms and legs dancing and jumping around in my tummy, that was when it was real for me and I began crying. I couldn't believe I was creating this baby, that looked so happy in my tummy!

From the beginning, well ever since I started ever thinking about kids (one day) I always had wanted to have a boy first. I of course would be happy with a girl too (her name would have been Ava :) but I was hoping for a boy first, I had a dream early on in pregnancy that I had a son, and knew it was a boy, when we found out he was for sure a boy we were both so excited!!

I remember the first time I could feel the baby move strong enough to tell Ben to try and feel, and how we were sitting on our bed and he was feeling, and when he felt him for the first time how happy it made him. Even though I feel inside my tummy a lot, I still every time tell him to hurry and come feel, he gets this huge smile on his face and I can see how happy it makes him! I think he's felt him on my tummy more time then I have because I just pay attention to feeling him on the inside, but earlier this week he said I think I feel his hand or something poking out! So he told me to put my hand in this spot and sure enough, a hand, or an elbow ha ha something strong and hard! It was so amazing feeling!

Anyways baby LOVES music! Just like his momma! I've noticed he kicks more to Kim Walker and worship music, Ben played Beethoven once and he kicked a bunch (but I couldn't stand it haha) I love that he loves worship, when we were living at my grandmas I would take baths and put on worship loud and sing to him, it was so relaxing.

I love you baby, I can't wait to meet you  in 63 days or less :)
