the pregnancy post

In my head, I had all these grand intensions of being a way good blogging human while I was pregnant so I could remember every last detail about this incredible journey. 

But then I didn't.  Oops. 

So, I'll quickly sum it up the best I can. 

( I have other places that I've kept the details on, but those places are for mine and Toddy's eyes only. ;) )

I honestly cannot come up with another word to describe pregnancy other than sacred.

Yes, it sometimes is a little hard. Yes, peeing every 30 minutes all through the night probably isn't my favorite thing in the world. But overall, there isn't anything in this world I would rather be doing. The experiences I am having are sacred. Plain and simple as that.

Feeling our baby girl move inside my belly is indescribable. As each day passes, I find myself falling more and more in love with her; more and more anxious for her arrival. It's so fun, I learn so much about her when I just sit back, relax and feel her moving all around. For one, I already know that she is a daddy's girl. :) Every time Todd talks, or puts his hands on my belly, she goes nuts. ( I don't blame you, baby girl. I'm crazy about him, too :) )

I have learned countless lessons over these last 9 months. But, something that I've learned that has been a theme lately is: family is the most important. Not that I didn't know it before, but it has become much more apparent, much more solidified for me. Toddy and baby girl are MY most importants. There is absolutely nothing in this world more important to be than them. I love my little family. I love that we are a little family. Hey Toddy, thanks for taking the first step in starting our forever family and asking me to marry you. I really love you. Thanks for loving me.  I cannot wait to see you melt like snow when you meet the other love of your eternity. ;)
