Almost halfway there....

Well, I can't beleive we're almost halfway through this pregnancy. I was reading somewhere how it seemed as if it had been forever for the mother, well, let me tell you, I don't feel that way. To me it has flown by, and I don't think it's gonna slow down any. We find out Tuesday if it is a girl or boy. I'm thouroughly excited. It's funny, I didn't want to find out until we decided the baby was gonna decide whether it wanted the world to know or not, and now I can't hardly wait. I am praying everything checks out ok. I have actually lost a little weight, even still, and continue to drop instead of gain. This is concerning, even though, the doc said at the beginning there was nothing to worry about. So as for the nursery it is coming along slow. I can't beleive we only have as long as has already been to get it done; clean, the furniture ordered and some built, painted, organized etc. I'm still working on transferring my stuff out of that room so Stephen can get to his stuff. :-/ I don't know if we will finish in time. So far as me, I'm feeling pretty great, aside from this cold, or allergies, or whatever the heck it is. That has been my one ongoing symptom through the entire pregnancy, drainage. It is worth it, but I wish it would hurry up and be done. I can't believe it still. I still haven't felt any movement that I can tell for sure was baby. My belly is growing but not exponentially or anything, so it's still abstract I suppose. I would like that feeling to go away, it makes me feel like I'm not connecting, and hence not going to be a great mom. Hopefully, finding out what the lil peanut is will help with it a lil. It has been a "baby" step process. I really didn't believe it til we saw pics, and then, I still really didn't til I heard the heartbeat, and now it still really doesn't, so.....I guess I will bore you all no more for now, but if you want to be bored again, come back and check it out. I'll try to stay up on this thing. :-)

Don't worry. I thought when I had Connor I would have an overabundance of love for him at the very sight of his sweet face. I loved him, but I did not feel connected. My love for him grows as our relationship grows. I still have moments that it seems odd this little person is following me around calling me "Mom". What is even more odd than that, is his belief that I have all the answers! Becoming a mom, brought my mom down to human status making me realize she didn't have all the answers either. On the other hand, becoming a mom, placed my mom back on the pedestal she deserves, because I understand her better now. My pregnancy flew by and so have the past five years. Enjoy every moment!!!
