Thank you for all the encouraging words, it really means a lot to me to know we have such great friends. I feel SO much better today, and there is no other way to explain it, other than being an answer to prayer. This has to be happening for a reason, and I'm almost certain it's a lesson in selflessness (I'm always the last one to figure these things out). Jude and I have gotten closer through all this, which is a good thing, and makes me more confidant that with each other, we can do this. I've just been praying for God to soften and change my heart, and to be open to His plan, instead of mine. And honestly, I feel pretty darn good about it. I kind of feel silly writing a blog about this... but I thought I should give an update. I know it's a journey, and I'll probably be on a roller coaster for a while, but I'm getting there...slowly but surely. So, thank you for your prayers, and please... keep it up!
In other news... We are so excited about our baby boy! I could have watched that monitor screen all day long. Jude said he wants to bring a video camera next time. It was so sweet, yesterday Jude and I were talking about how amazing it is, and he said, that was probably one of the best days of my life. Such an adorable man!
I'm feeling the baby move more and more, and my belly is popping out more and more as well! We had our doctor appointment before the ultrasound, and she said everything looks good. His heart rate was at 145, and I've actually LOST three pounds. She said that's nothing to worry about, but to keep taking care of myself. We told her that it was probably due to stress.
I'm looking into maternity leave more and more as well, trying to prepare. Ideally I would love if I didn't have to go back to work, so we'll see what happens. My job has been a bit stressful lately too, just what i need, right?
Anyway, thanks again for all the support and prayers. I feel really blessed to have such great family and friends.
