Yep....still pregnant!

In case some of you are checking the blog for baby info, we are still preggo! My earliest due date that we were going with had my due date as May 17, which would make me 6 days overdue today. But, the typical due date wheel would only make me due today May 23rd. Just depends how you look at it! So, I am kinda overdue but maybe not too =)

There has been such an abundance of grace from the Lord this week. He has been so kind and so faithful and I trust He has a handpicked birthday for this cutie =) We will continue to lean into Him in the waiting process =) I'm looking forward to meeting this little one and super excited to find out gender! And I'm ready to move past the pregnant part =)

If you think of us, pray for grace in the waiting, safety and protection for the remainder of pregnancy and the delivery and a great birth story =) Thanks!

Happy Due Date!

Today is our due date! 40 weeks according to an early ultrasound (otherwise I first calculated this coming Thursday)! Noah was born right on his due date so we'll see what happens though things are very normal right now and it's already 5pm =) But you never know! I'm thinking sometime in the next few days things will happen!

To bring in the due date, we had a tornado warning and heard the sirens at 11:30pm and had to head for the rescue zone! It is like ringing in the new year but instead we rang in the due date with some natural disaster drama! We've not had to do that yet in our 3 years here so far until last night. I had to wake Noah and off we went. He did great and thankfully the sirens went off really soon after so we could return and put him back to bed.

Thankful for beautiful weather today, no tornado near us and 40 weeks today! Come on out and meet us, baby!

Waiting in Anticipation

So....38 weeks and 5 days. For some reason I feel extra desire this pregnancy to have this baby already despite not even being due yet. I'm just sooooo curious about whether this little one is a boy or girl and can't wait to meet him or her! Also....a little abnormal.....I'm looking forward to birthing a baby again and having a great birth story to cherish :)

So....still 9 days until our due date of May 17. And I could be overdue. The biggest challenge is surrendering the timing every day. It is all about hoping and anticipating something wonderful and yet not letting excitement turn into obsessive thinking and anxiety. I can't control any of it anyways and just have to wait and contend for peace in the process.

I am feeling ready and hoping my body has rest and grace for the remainder of pregnancy, however long or short it may be. And even more, that my mind and heart have peace and joy in the waiting :)

Pregnancy Photo Shoot!

I have totally fallen off the blogging wagon since I went to Canada in March! I spent almost 3 weeks in Canada with family which was great =) Then have been in busy baby prep mode the last number of weeks as we prepare for our newest addition! We are 38 weeks tomorrow and excited to meet this little one soon!

Yesterday we did a little family photo shoot compliments of my sister and I thought it would be fun to show you some of the pics =)

I'm so blessed to have these ones in my life! Thank you Jesus =)
