A year ago today...

...was my due date. July 12. For so many months my life revolved around that date, although I knew full well that due dates were just an approximation. This time last year I was growing in every way possible--my huge belly, my anticipation, excitement, and anxiousness, and my faith as I continued to remind myself day... after day... after day that God's timing was better than my own and this sweet child would come when God decided it was time. I had a comfortable pregnancy and was out doing things all the way to end. But boy do I remember those days of waiting and waiting. Little did I know then that I still had a full week to go! Here's a silly picture of me last year, wondering when Baby was going to come!


And now here he is today, sharing blueberry pancakes with me at breakfast!

  2. How sweet! You were sych a a cute pregnant one. :) And I love your boy's bib. Did you make that?

    I can very much relate on the waiting game. This last pregnancy went on FOREVER, esp w/ the kidney stones. My son was actually born a week early, but it didn't feel like it!
