1.) Seeing Garrett as a dad. He rubs my belly and says "Hi son!" he also practices pushing the stroller around the house and tells me.. "don't laugh this is serious!"
2.) Me becoming a mom! I am of course nervous, but I am excited to be that person to someone. I look up to and love my mom so much, I want another human to love me the way I love my mom. I am excited to hopefully feel so wanted and loved by someone because I take care of them!
3.) Seeing our family with our little man. I can't wait for my parents to become grandparents, and to see Garrett's parents have another boy to add to the bunch! This baby is so loved already, by so many people.
So far, my pregnancy has been going smoothly. Besides the severe nausea and vomiting I had until about 14 weeks, and my headaches, things are good. The day we went in to find out the gender of baby was a very exciting day! We were so nervous and anxious all morning. I had a feeling it was going to be a boy before we went in for the ultrasound. The tech didn't even have to tell me, I saw his little peanut right away!! The 20 week ultrasound looked good as far as the u/s tech could tell, and at my next visit we will review the results from the radiologist. The baby was breech during the ultrasound, but that can change quite often. I have an anterior placenta, which means my placenta was on the front side of my stomach. It's not a bad thing they said, it may just cause me not to feel the baby move as much (This was a relief because I was worried about that) but this can also change during the course of my pregnancy I was told. Baby measured 9 OZ. about the size of 2 cubes of butter. Of course when we got home that night, Garrett was carrying around 2 sticks of butter saying "I love you baby!" LOL!! When we went to Vegas this past weekend, we went and saw a cirque show, and baby started kicking when the drums were playing. Not just kicking, he was going crazy!! He must like the drums like his dad.
We recently bought the furniture for the nursery, which was so fun to set up. Before I got pregnant, we saved money for our furniture and baby needs. We are broke now, so I am looking forward to a baby shower! LOL. The furniture wasn't cheap! We decided to invest in a nicer one so we can use it for all of our future kids.
Anyway, thank you to everyone who keeps us in your prayers. We feel them as they bring blessings to our little family! Can't wait to bring our son into the world and show him how many people love and care for him.
I'm so excited to add another little angel to my family list. That is what Grandma Richardson called us, her little angels. I want you to know, Sam and Garrett, my heart is full of love for this little boy. You think you have it full but find out that as a new one comes along how much more room you have in your heart. I love you all.
