Week 32

Hey little man!

Somehow we are at Week 32! It feels like this pregnancy is going by so quickly. In just a few weekends' time- 8 weekends to be exact- you will be here!

My favorite moments with you are when I'm laying down and there's no rush to be anywhere and I feel you kicking, pushing and playing in my tummy. Within the last week, I've really felt the weight of you- it's like you went from weighing nothing to being a little tiny bowling ball in my tummy.

Your dad and I have been having dreams about you. T dreaming about you being a little older and using him to climb up into bed, and me about breastfeeding you. I know that sounds weird, but I was practicing the technique the nurse taught us during our class. "Slam dunk!" I saw your little face in my dream and I wonder if that's what you'll look like.

In the next couple weeks we have:

Aunt Bekah & Uncle Mario visiting
Your dad's 40th birthday
Aunt Kimberly's wedding
Mommy's appointment
Aunt Savannah's baby shower
Aunt Callyan coming to visit from Stockton
Grandma Cheri and Grandma Naomi's baby shower
Uncle Steven's birthday
Valentine's Day

Something wonderful has been happening over the last week- I haven't been getting up in the middle of the night! I've been able to sleep straight through. Which, I know, I know, isn't exactly getting me into the practice of when you are here. But I have thoroughly enjoyed getting this rest right now.

I think the biggest things right now are me savoring special moments that I've come to appreciate before your arrival- like cuddling with your dad on the couch, sleeping in...stuff like that. Once you're here, little man, things will be so different.

 I'm excited for you to be here, little guy. Love you!
