hard to believe the next belly pic we take will be the start of the THIRD trimester..wow!!
preschool sunday is always a blessing!
especially when the kids sang This is the Day (their favorite by far!)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
this is officially our last weekend pre-holiday events, so we made sure to be extra lazy for the most part!
i'm still feeling pretty good :) our lil' punkin is moving all the time lately! i know i'll miss this feeling once she's "done baking" & makes her arrival, so i'm enjoyin' laying around & just watching my belly jump at every kick she throws out :) i must say, it's also nice to have her all to myself & not have to share her for a little while longer (stingy i know, but that's the Mama in me)...i know i'm only gonna become more uncomfortable as the next few months approach, but it's so awesome to know that it's "just the two of us" until that day when we get to meet her face to face :)
i've been stressing alot lately about the whole labor & delivery thing & how everything will happen...matt tells me to stop worrying...i'm trying.
i stress about having so many people there just waiting on me to push out a baby! i stress about sitting there in pain while visitors roam in & out watching me like i'm an exhibit. i stress about what if i have to have a c-section & i'm not the first to get to see & hold her! i stress about trying to nurse & people waiting outside the door for me to finish so they can see her. i stress about people getting upset with me because i want bonding time with my husband & baby...& not so much time with others...& the list goes on. alot of this stems from other mothers telling me their experiences & how they felt at time of delivery.
i have never been one to worry about much, but this just seems to be getting worse the closer it gets to february. i know the Bible tells us in Philippians 4:6 “Do not be anxious [do not worry] about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.” & i really am trying to do this & let all these worries go! so please say a prayer for me & for matt (& his poor ears!) i know the Lord will work it all out & i just need to chill out & enjoy this time :)
with Thanksgiving & Christmas just on the horizon i know these next few months will fly by & february will be here before we know it, so again, please keep us in your prayers (for all the above) as well as for a healthy baby & mama & daddy :)
hope everyone has a wonderful & blessed week ♥

He also said, "I hereby command you: Be strong and courageous" (Joshua 1:9) And you my good friend are certainly both. Praying that you can rest these natural fears & anxieties safely in His faithful arms. Sending much love & prayers your way...always! My ear's always here shall you need to "bend" :)
