6 weeks left and counting 'til baby girl arrives- We're so excited!
Maybe I have a false sense of security, but having a baby the second time around seems a whole lot easier. Time hasn't gone by any faster but I've done less google searches and less worrying about having the "right" baby items. Last time at 34 weeks I was frantically craigslisting breast pumps like my baby's life depended on it. This time I realize that just 'cause we don't have a crib yet doesn't mean the baby won't be able to sleep.
This time I'll see it coming when the sleep deprivation hits me head on and breast feeding seems like a sick joke. I'll leave my cute summer clothes in their box a few more weeks rather than being too anxious to fit back into my pre-pregnancy wardrobe. Hopefully I'll spend less time questioning "Am I doing this right?" and more time just enjoying my newly enlarged family.
Liam gives the baby hugs and talks about her all the time like she's there in the room. In his night time prayers he prays that she can hurry up and get big so she can come out. (Amen to that!) He says he'll fetch clean diapers, teach the baby how to crawl and feed her bottles.
