Halfway

It's been a while since my last post and I apologize for that. Tomorrow marks the 20th week of my pregnancy. It's half way over, it seems like it has went by slow and fast at the same time. It still doesn't seem real, I can't believe there is a little bundle of joy growing in my belly. I have had morning sickness, and just being tired until about 18 weeks. I am feeling great now, no more sickness {Thank you, Jesus} I have more energy and I want to clean and organize everything. 

I am so greatful to be able to carry such precious cargo for 9 months. A part of me wants to keep the baby in my belly forever because I know it's safe, warm and snugly, and the other part of me is ready to meet and hold this wonderful gift from God. Some women don't get to experience this so I'm trying to soak in and cherish every moment, good and bad because I know it will be over in the blink of an eye and may not happen again. 

 

I also have to brag about how {wonderful} my husband has been through this experience so far. He has cleaned my throw-up, he's stepped in it... barefoot, never once complained, he asks how I feel everyday, he tells me I look beautiful when I feel like a tub of lard, he lets me cry {for no reason} on his shoulder, I can't say enough good things about him. He is going to be such an amazing father to our baby. He lets me know everything is going to be ok when I feel like a hundred things are going to go wrong. I truly don't know what I would do without him. 

Behold, children are a gift of the LORD; The fruit of the womb is a reward. 

Psalms 127:3

We find out next Monday what Baby Beaver will be. I'll be sure to let everyone know after I tell my family. What do you think Baby Beaver will be, boy or girl??
