For some reason 29 weeks is an important week for me when I am pregnant. It's when I seem to realize that I have a little person in me that is coming in not too long. It's when I finally look like a big pregnant lady, its right before I hit 30 weeks, when I start to have my doctors appointments every two weeks... I guess its when I realize I am in the final stretch. 29 weeks has become the time when I take my"important" maternity pictures. I guess because with Bridger that was when I finally had a baby bump. So here are my pictures of me at 29 weeks starting with Bridger. Looking at them I want to grow my hair out again and go darker don't you agree?
Today I finally felt my first eagerness to get my pregnancy over with asap. To be honest, I am a bit miserable these days. I just wish I could remember what it is like to feel good. It has been a long time! Okay, enough complaining!
There are some pregnancy things that are fun. Like when Benjamin got the hiccups for the first time last night. I loved it. He didn't seem to like it very much though. He kept squirming and kicking until they stopped. It was cute.
I am not sure if I know how to express how in love I am with this kid but I really am. With my other two kiddos it took me awhile to really love them while I was pregnant. With Bridger it was all so new, Angeli I was still getting used to being a mom to Bridger I didn't really know how to think about loving another baby. I loved them during my pregnancy but not as confidently as I do this time. I feel like I already know this little guy so well. Stewart gave me a blessing early on that told me that "the spirit I was carrying would be very close by me throughout my pregnancy". So I guess this is all just the fulfillment of that blessing. Really, I feel like we are buddies. I am just head over heels in love with this little baby. When I think about his birth I am most excited with the thought that I can finally share him with my family; that Stewart and the kids will get to know him too. I cant wait for Benjy to officially be ours. Without a doubt I know he has a lot to bring to our little family and I am simply thrilled he'll be joining us soon. Benjamin, we love you. Thanks for being ours.
