Well, I am down to 4.5 weeks left. Baby is pushing down a lot and things are becoming more and more uncomfortable, but I still feel quite a bit better than I did with Steph. I am 15 pounds lighter, and I was putting in flooring, painting, moving, etc, because we moved into our house just before Steph was born. I think that has made a huge difference. I have a lot less energy, but a lot less pain. So I will take the sleepiness. This week starts the every-week visits.
I remember how bittersweet the last month can be. I was so ready for the birth of my third, but knowing she was my last, I wanted to hang on to her moving around inside. You are blessed with a lovely family, enjoy every moment!
I am mom to 4 little girls: Sarah 5, Hannah 3, Stephanie 2, and Annie born July 2006. We love learning and are learning to love. We are using Sonlight Kindergarten and a Pre-K schedule I put together.
Now we have this treasure in clay jars, so that this extraordinary power may be from God and not from us. We are pressured in every way but not crushed; we are perplexed but not in despair; we are persecuted but not abandoned; we are struck down but not destroyed. We always carry the death of Jesus in our body, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body. II Corinthians 4:7-10
