Waiting…

I am 37 weeks pregnant, and technically full-term. So far, things have been pretty smooth with my only complaints being my back occasionally being out of place, some cramps in my calves occasionally, and then my hips being a little sore. Overall, though, I feel much more comfortable with this pregnancy, being a little less huge and nowhere near as swollen.

I am mostly done with all of my major projects that I was hoping to get done before the baby. Just a couple less pressing ones await me now. I am looking forward to getting some down time where I can spend a little more quality time with Jake, as well as put my feet up and relax.

So, am I nervous about the upcoming chaos? Mostly yes. I know that I am not capable of doing it on my own. But that is actually what is giving me the most confidence: knowing that if I can simply depend on God for grace to get through each day (and perhaps each minute), things are going to be just fine.

Here is a picture that was taken at a shower for us 3 cousins: Jackie, Nikki and I. Nikki went into labor the night before so unfortunately we didn’t get a picture of all 3 of us. Jackie had her baby soon after this picture.
