The pregnancy symptoms are super evident these days ;) I will have you know that for the last 3 nights I have been unable to sleep! It's crazy how your tiny little body can cause so much to happen to mine! Haha... You seem to kick a lot at night, and so when you jam some part of your body up into my ribs, I am constantly having to readjust. I have SUPER bad heartburn that seems to be incurable even with TUMS. I have to sleep elevated right now to keep from feeling like I have to throw up! Plus I have had restless leg syndrome, and so my legs are constantly bothering me at night. Then they cramp up out of nowhere! I eat bananas and take vitamin B sometimes to help out, but alas, my symptoms persist. On top of all these nightly things, since you are getting bigger, I have to go to the bathroom at least 3 times a night. This is also because I am having to drink lots of water to keep us both hydrated ;) Oh Emma, I would go through this all over again because you are worth every sleepless night. But I will say that I miss sleep. I miss it a lot. Haha. Well, your daddy just quit one of his jobs, and we are trusting that God will lead us in the direction we are to go in the next few months :) I'm very happy that he is moving on from this job, and feel Gods peace about the whole thing. Your daddy has so many gifts and talents to share with people who can benefit from them. I know God will bring him something great! He's a seeker, and has been on the go go go! He is such a hard worker, and I know that he won't let the grass grow under his feet. I will say that even if it's for a short time, I am going to enjoy this down season where he may be around more often!!! God has provided him with enough clients to keep him busy, and now we will be able to spend some quality time on working on a future plan. Well, we have a plan, but I mean maybe get some good stuff going! We are super excited and open to what God has planned for us, and we are so so so so so so excited to meet you in about 3 months! Eeeeps! That sounds so far but yet right around the corner!
I have been keeping busy with photography fun, editing pictures for friends, and taking care of your big brother. I love being a mommy, and can't wait till you join us. I wonder how it's going to be with two babies out in public??? I have so many questions! Do I need a double stroller, or would Eli rather walk by that time? How full is my diaper bag going to be? I wonder how different a baby girl is from a baby boy? I wonder how different you and Eli will be in terms of crying, health, energy, personality and so on and so forth. Eli prefers walking as oppose to a stroller, so will that be harder when I'm pushing another stroller? How will I get you both in and out of the car safely and without breaking my back? Hahahaha. How will it be eating out now? Is Eli going to be gentle with you are poke you in eye? ;) I wonder if Eli will get a bit jealous at first even though we fully intend on including him in everything about you? Are you going to let me put bows in your hair? heehee ;) I wonder how it will be when Eli wants mommy to play when I'm nursing you? How many diapers will I change in a day? Hahaha! All kinds of fun things to think about. I'm not worried, just so curious about how I'm going to figure it all out and get into my own groove as a mommy of two babies! It's so exciting! I am so up for the challenge, and if and when it gets super hard, I will pray, and call a grandma! Hahahahahaha! I am not to proud to ask for help! I told my mom that I will be calling her for the first few weeks when I need to go grocery shopping ;) I just may need another helper at first just to go to the store! Haha. Like with Eli, I could try to imagine all I wanted, but until I experienced it, I really had to guess. Now I know how to manage outings, what to bring, and what times are the best for us to go places. ok, well, I love you Emma. I'm excited for you! Can't wait to meet you, and hug and kiss you! Your brother picked out a very sweet gift to bring to the hospital for you when you arrive!
