My resting place

Looks like

It looks like with everything going on in my life that I would have blogged here more over the past few weeks, but with cancer on top of a pregnancy there was just no interest or desire in posting anything at all. I am extremely thankful that I feel so much better and actually feel almost normal despite being 26 weeks pregnant. I am also beginning to think and focus on the baby and I am looking forward to preparing for my precious little baby.  I did knit a blanket (my first) for the baby while I was recovering from my surgery. I will not be putting together a nursery room for this baby, but we will be preparing a new to us dresser and we will be able to use our old crib that all our other blessings slept in. We had passed it on to some friends but they have never needed the crib and so they asked if we would want it back and I was thrilled to say yes, I think this time it is staying. The crib is one of the convertable cribs so we can keep the baby in there until baby turns toddler and grows to long if we need since it converts to a toddler day bed.  I am not too overly concerned about those things at the moment as we have a beautiful portable crib/bassinett combo that a friend has loaned us, it is absolutely beautiful color of green with a green and white toile fabric as well. My goal is to spend as little as possible on "stuff" for the baby as we know what we need and what is just extra since this is our fourth go around the baby world. I did purchase a maya wrap second hand and am looking online at the other slings available and I really like the one piece fabric wraps that you tie instead of the rings. I am not sure what I will find that works well, but I just think that I will use a sling or wrap alot with this little blessing. I am very nostalgic this go around as this is probably our last little blessing as we are not getting any younger! I was actually very content and thought that my three blessings were all we would be having. This baby will definitely spend many long hours in my arms as that is such a precious and short time. Before you know it they are crawling and all over the place. I must go and move some little girl blessings along in their before bed routine, I hear a little too much noise that sounds nothing like getting ready for bed.

I am so glad to hear that you are doing well. I will continue to pray for you. I know what you mean about enjoying your youngest blessing. I am trying hard not to spoil our baby girl, but to enjoy her. I was so anxious for the rest to get to the next stage, but with the 4th I am just enjoying each day! I am still praying God may grant us our own boy(s) but I am content with four girls if that is His will. He has been so good to me!
Thinking of you! Eva
