"Our willingness to wait reveals the value we place on the object we're waiting for."

-Stanley Charles (Isaiah 64:4)

I saw this quote yesterday on pinterest, and it just rang true to me in every way possible during this time in my life.  I think back over the past couple years and can't even believe that I am where I am- so close to finally holding my baby in my arms.  After miscarrying with my first baby almost exactly 2 years ago today (the week before Mother's Day 2010), I am so humbled and appreciative to be carrying this baby now.  After trying to conceive for about a year and half, praying, wishing, and hoping a miracle would happen, I was truly tested and realized how important patience is in life.  This quote above rang true in that situation and also rings true now as I get closer and closer to the day that I will finally meet my sweet baby face to face.

Wyatt's Room!

30 Weeks

Hi Baby Boy! We had our first shower this weekend and got lots of great things!  I am getting really enormous, but still have a long way to go- yikes! You've been nestling up high in my ribs with your feet! (I think?) and it's making things a little more difficult around here- luckily we are almost all ready with your room! Pics coming soon! Loving that everyone now knows you as Wyatt and we all call you that all the time. :)  Can't wait to put a face with a name my little sweet pea!

To You...

29 Weeks

Oh my little Wy-man, Wyers, Lil Dub (as Daddy likes to call you)- where has the time gone?! Can't believe you will be here in 11 weeks or less... I am so excited for you to arrive into this world, but am also anxious and a tiny bit sad that there will be a whole new set of worries that come along with you being out of the womb! You are so safe and snug in there right now!  I love you so so much- more and more every day- even though you have been the cause of some of the worst heartburn/acid reflux I've ever experienced for the last few nights. Oh and the fact that I feel like I have a bruised tailbone since last week. ;)  I've been starting to hear stories about birth and labor and delivery and have decided to tune it all out- however you decide to come into this world-I am ready for it.  I pray that we can handle it- but I know we can! We've already been through so much together my little man.  Mama is getting so excited to meet you face to face so I can finally smother you with kisses!
