Last day at work...

wow I can't believe its already here! That means the real countdown will begin and thats just pure crazy to me. I know I've said this a MILLION times but its so true the time has just flown by. I can remember as if it was yesterday the day I found out we were expecting our first lil one. My lower jaw hit the floor in shock and stayed that way for like 30 minutes(ok so I'm exagerating on the time but still). July 6th was the day we found out our family was going from 2 to 3. It was also a very long day because I didn't see Sid til almost 10:00 that evening and of course didn't want to tell him over the phone...who does that? Haha...I even debated on waiting to tell him that Sunday (7/11) our 2nd anniversary but I just couldn't keep it any longer...I wanted him to know. So I went to tell him and couldn't get it out without giggling...if you know me, you know that I giggle sometimes when I get nervous or really excited and I was both.
Like I've said before my pregnancy has been very uneventful and to be honest it still is...I don't know if I've even had braxton hicks.(I get asked that alot here lately) On Monday (01/31) I start going to the doctor weekly and that is just strange to me cuz litterally Parker can and could come any day now. I still think he won't grace us with his presence until March 7th or later BUT several keep telling me that he'll be here in February, even Parker's daddy thinks he'll come in February...So I guess we'll just have to wait and see now won't we.
Well like the title says...today is my last day at work and I was surprised with a cake and flowers by these wonderful ladies I've been blessed to work with. I'm going to kinda miss them but so look forward to this new journey I'm about to partake in. I've wanted to be a mommy for as long as I can remember, even at my kindergarten graduation I said that when I grow up I want to be a stay at home mommy (not just a mommy...I was very specific haha)Well now I get to do that...Its a little scary and nerve racking but I know its going to be worth it or atleast I hope it is...haha :D

Man alive...

my body must be trying to prepare me for when lil Parker comes because for the last few weeks I've been waking up extremely early and being up for a couple hours before falling back to sleep. Last night or should I say early this morning I was wide awake at 2:30 and didn't fall back to sleep til 5:00! Like SERIOUSLY...whats up with that?!
I guess if this is my bodies way of helping me get prepared ok, but it would be so much more worth it if I had Parker to get up with, atleast in my very own opinion.
Its getting closer and closer for Parker's big entrance and I'm getting really excited but its still feeling very unreal! My pregnancy has been smooth sailing and I have nothing to complain about. Thank you Lord for such a smooth ride and I pray it continues that way all the way to the end result!
Just 6 weeks and counting give or take...WOW is all I can say!

Tired...

Man I've been soooo tired the last few days and feeling super lazy! But I've only got a lil over 6 weeks before our lil guy is here and im getting oh so excited!

So much has happened in the last week and a half but one thing that has stayed constant is my thoughts for Joel and Elizabeth! It just doesn't seem fair that they would lose their sweet baby at full term
I know God is in control and He always has a plan and purpose but my heart still hurts for them. Not a day goes by that I don't think of them and lift them up in prayer. I can't even begin to imagine what today was like for them especially Elizabeth. Tyler and Jeni had their sweet baby boy last week(that's a different post for another day) but today was baby Kevins first sunday...so he was introduced to the church, that should've been baby Hayden last week but it wasn't! I personally think that's a special highlight for the parents and I know both Joel and Elizabeth looked forward to it. What happened to them still feels so unreal and like a really really long dream.
Joel and Elizabeth my heart hurts for you and know im constantly praying for you! I think our church theme is very fitting...By His Grace For His Glory!
