Day 343

Phew! Not too much longer to go! Baby girl could be born any day now. I can hardly believe that I will be a mom soon! After waiting for such a long time, after so many dashed hopes and dreams, it is finally happening!!!

I talked to our birth mother last night and she said that Baby Girl is happy and healthy (and perfect...which, given our birthparents, isn’t a surprise). Although Baby Girl seems to be trying to stretch out her ‘home’ as much as possible. Our poor birthmother...she is a very petite person and now that Baby Girl has grown to a larger size it is getting pretty hard on her back (if you could all say a prayer for her that would be great).

Dan and I got the car seat this weekend and are going to get a car seat tech to install it later this week or early next week...and...the nursery is nearly ready. After two wonderful showers, two weeks in a row we are almost prepared! We really only need a couple more things before we are set (glider, burp clothes, and everyday onesies). I swear, this child has more clothes than I do already! Can we say SPOILED!!!

What is really sweet is that the high school and college girls at our church want to throw me a shower. How sweet is that? I know you hear (read) this all the time from me, but we are so very blessed and this child is already soooo loved. I can’t wait to see and hold her!

FYI – Two people were able to guess Baby Girl’s name...only one guessed it off of Dan’s silly (and confusing) riddle last week. Good job Dave & Tim!!!

That puzzle is confusing... I have no clue what the name will be.

Congrats Trisha and Dan, very happy for you both! Can't wait to find out the name, you have me in suspense!
