::::: Almost 40 weeks :::::

The "Due Date" is almost here. I'm anxious, excited, nervous, and thrilled. Emotional to say the least. I have had so much energy lately, it has been wonderful ! I think I was in denial that working was making me so tired. I had decided it was just pregnancy, but now having some time off to recoup and actually be in bed at a normal hour has done wonders for my body, mental well being and heath. I'm so thankful I have had this time before she arrives, God has been taking care of me, as I trust him with her timing I can rest assured it will happen at the best possible time. I have been learning this week just how much he loves us and takes care of us. If it would have been my call I would have had her last week, but now sitting here fully refreshed and mentally prepared for labor I feel comforted in the fact that his plan is above all the best.

This week Chad and I have been going on countless walks, it's been so refreshing ! Taking walks with Chad has been really special, knowing this will be our last week of just us, we have been trying to take full advantage of just our alone time. Even though most of it is spent talking about how excited we are to meet our daughter. It's been special to just stroll through the parks together hand in hand and talk about all the exciting things life has for us.

Tonight.... I feel calm, relaxed and ready.

Ash. That was beautiful. absolutly wonderful. I love the flow of your blog so far, you have been super anxious and I feel like this post has closure and peace to it. Maybe I am going to start my period or something, but I even cried a little.

LOVES, LUCK and Prayers sent your way from us.
