Less than 3 weeks left!

Can you believe it??? I can't. In less than 3 weeks I will be holding a precious baby that belongs to ME! It seems so weird to think about.


I've been freaking out this entire pregnancy about actually giving birth, but now I just want to get it over with! I want to stop being uncomfortable and HUGE, and I just want to meet this little girl. I want to see this tiny baby that has already stolen my heart. And I want to know if her personality really is as I suspect. Fiesty and independent, but so sweet and loving at the same time. How I can predict that while she is still in the womb can only be a mother's intuition :)

I've also been freaking out about being a mom at all. Questioning whether God was really sure that I am capable of being a good mom. The kind of mom that I want to be and that I know He wants me to be. But in the past few weeks I've began to feel a peace about it. God's timing is perfect, and he knows what I can handle and what I can't. Even though I'm still a little nervous (baby's aren't exactly my forte), I know that I can do it! Especially with God's help! (And help from family and friends :))

Anyways, I know some of you are wondering, but, no, we have not picked out a name yet. And we aren't going to until we see her little face. We have it narrowed down to 3 names, but they are a secret! We don't want to name her something, and then think we should've named her something different. It will all be clear when we see her! :)

I will leave you with a picture of me at 35 weeks. Yes, that really is my stomach. I'm not hiding a basketball in there.
