I've really been struggling with staying positive the past few days. I just want Elijah to be here and I am going crazy waiting. In lieu of the annoyingly complain-y post I already wrote and deleted, I decided to write about the things I've enjoyed most about being pregnant:
Ice cream. Any kind, but cookies and cream and chocolate chip cookie dough have reigned supreme.
Fast food runs without (most of) the guilt.
Decorating and organizing the nursery.
Feeling Elijah kick and roll around in my belly. Sometimes creepy and painful? Yes. Awesome and cool? Double yes.
Not having to suck in.
Michael reading bedtime stories to my belly.
Getting to share the milestone with our families.
Being unapologetic about my appearance.
Exploring our neighborhood on our nightly walks (read: efforts to coax him out).
Haha, I love you dearie. I know you are so anxious. He will be here before you know it. P.S. I enjoyed all of the things you listed above! :) The ice creams are my 2 faves! :)
ReplyDeleteThe feeling another being inside of you thing still sounds creepy to me...but also cool. I can't wait to meet him!!! Obviously you can't either. :D Miss you!
