Baby

This week marks 28 weeks of pregnancy for me and as I sit here typing, the baby (Jackson)  is happily hiccuping away in my belly.  I cannot express the total misery and joy that this little man has brought to me over the last 28 weeks, but let me try...  Weeks 1 through 6 - didn't even know baby existed, found out about baby, shock and awe, excitement.  Weeks 6 through 16 - this was the total misery part...I spent the better part of every day simultaneously starving and throwing up everything I ate or smelled.  Although I have loved him from the second I knew of his existence, this was not what I would call a "wonderful time" for us...  Weeks 16 through present - I couldn't be happier.  I am carrying a healthy baby boy and I am enjoying nearly every second of my last pregnancy.  I love every little kick (and big kick for that matter) and sometimes I wish he and I could stay this way for a long time.  This is truly the honeymoon period for me.  I feel joy and excitement and peace that this is what God has planned for me and for our family.  I am one blessed mommy.
