2 Weeks and counting...

This is the little guys back we have literally never seen his face on ultrasound. Shy I guess?

 Today I am officially 37 weeks Pregnant. I can't decide if it came fast or slow. Sometimes it was a little of both. I am "pretty" ready to hold this little man in my arms. I cannot tell you how blessed I feel to be a mom to a second child and having no complications along the way. Jade and I were worried we would and I think we will always be with every child we have, but so far the only hard part was how sick I got at the beginning. I am so glad it didn't last the whole pregnancy!
    This little guy is scheduled to come February 25th at 7:00 am C-Section. I have to have all my babies C-Section because I had Hallie that way (little stinker sat breach the whole time). Mixed feelings on how I feel that I will never experience having a natural birth but overall I am ok with it. I watched Hallie's birth video the other night and one part that I really like about having a C-Section is how much time Jade gets to spend with the Newborn before me. He video the whole thing and was able to see her get weighed, measured, and cleaned off. While that is happening he is telling me all about her. What her hair, nose, eyes, and toes look like; as I am getting stitched back up. For some reason I just love that he gets that bonding time with the baby because I know I will get mine. He also helps give the baby their first bath which is so precious to watch. I just love it!
    Thinking back on that day just makes me want to cry, the look on Jade's face when he first saw her, the joy of finally holding that little girl for the first time. Becoming a mom; it truly is one of the greatest days of my life. I hope that when this little guy comes I can just relive all the wonderful feelings of love, hope, and excitement I did before with no complications. Now the key is to keep him from coming sooner then the scheduled date. I had Hallie what would be this coming Thursday so we will see. The anticipation is killing me!
