25 Days & Counting

We're closing in on the big day very quickly. February 27 is just 25 days away. Whoa momma! I go to the Dr. this Friday and every Friday after until Thomas comes. This is such a crazy time. Half of me can't wait to meet him and wishes I could go into labor tonight so I could finally see his face, and then another half of me wants every moment of just me & Christian that's possible. The suspense is real and joy is truly upon me.

Okay, family & friends, this is how we'll update the big day, so practice, practice! Come visit and let us know you came to say hi.

On another note, we were very sadly reminded this week, of just how out of our control Thomas' life is. Some friends of ours were scheduled for a c-section last Friday, to have their baby girl delivered. The mother was overdue and was seen the day before, where they got to hear the baby's heartbeat. On Friday when they woke up to come to the hospital, they were anticipating the birth of their daughter. Instead, they were utterly shocked to find out that sometime between hearing the heartbeat the day before and surgery time, their baby died in utero. As sickening and hard to understand as that is, it truly reminds me that our lives are but a breath...
