Waiting:
Posted on | April 12, 2014 | 3 Comments
April has been amazing thus far. The weather has been fantastic, some days up to mid 70's, and it's keeping my impatience at bay. We've had bonfires, grill outs, early easter celebration, and some fantastic hikes! I'm sorry Michigan, but it makes me miss you even less.
B brought Hazel fishing the other evening after we had a picnic. It was so special to witness, and she had absolutely no fear and even gave the fish a kiss before releasing it.
On the pregnancy front, I'm feel somewhere between absolutely loving these last days of pregnancy and loathing them, as I cannot wait to meet this new little love. I've had a lot more braxton hicks this time around, and for weeks I've had a feeling that he or she is coming early. I'm only 5 days away from my due date as of today, so perhaps my gut is wrong? I cannot believe it's almost here. After spending years trying with Hazel, her pregnancy seemed longer in a sense. This baby just continues to surprise me (so perhaps it's a girl, as I've been guessing boy?). Either way, raspberry leaf tea and EPO are my friend right now. In Hazel's words - "baby come OUT!"
Hopefully the next update will be a sweet picture of the new addition. Wishing you all a blessed weekend!

Beautiful photos, looks like some good times spent outdoors. I grew up in Wisconsin and my family is back there but after the winter they just had this year I don't think I could ever leave Oregon, at least not without a fight.
I can't wait to hear the news of your new baby's arrival. Blessings for a safe delivery and birth.
