As of today, I am exactly one month away from meeting my sweet baby boy. I can't really explain how I feel at this point - I just can't believe I'm here! I know these next few weeks will fly by. My biggest excitement right now is: holding him in my arms in a matter of days. My biggest fear is: Him arriving late (I'm planning on having a natural childbirth, and a late baby means a bigger baby - thus, the fear). I know God knows exactly how this is going to happen, and I do trust His plan!
My plans for today are to finish cleaning our bedroom and setting up the baby things I want in there. We're hoping to move to a different, better place as soon as Nick gets a job (which will be hopefully soon), so I've been packing a little bit so I won't have all of it to do when I have a newborn in the house. Because of this, I don't plan on having a beautiful, decorated nursery by the time he arrives, although it will be neat and organized. Right now, I'm setting up the bassinet next to the bed, stocking drawers with diapers, wipes and other necessities, and getting our hospital bags packed! I'm soooo excited.
It's fun preparing all of this and imagining my little one here. What an adventure. I know a newborn is going to change our lives, but I honestly can't think of a single thing in my current way of life that I will miss "losing" upon having a child - except maybe sleep. But I haven't slept in 3 months anyways so I should be used to it by now! This is a welcome, wonderful change. I can't wait to meet you, sweet baby Adrian!
In conclusion, here's a picture of my little feline shadow, Ava. She makes these days when Nick's not here less lonely.
