It is almost time. Looking forward to meeting you sometime between now and the beginning of August. I am feeling good. You are still pretty active but I can tell space is getting limited. You spend a lot of time with your feet kicking the right side of my rib cage. I asked the chiro to elongate me so I can have my ribs back and no soreness. Sleep is hit or miss. Some nights I sleep solid except for a couple bathroom breaks. Other nights I just toss and turn. I am pretty emotional. I only want to be around people that I *know* love me. I do not want to be away from your brother at all. Every night I cherish our time doing the bath, books, rock, bedtime thing. I think the earliest you will come would be next weekend. Tomorrow is the 6th anniversary of your daddy's daddy's passing. We have a trip to the river in leesburg planned. Fishing for the boys and hopefully a long nap for me and your brother. I wish the 3 of us could have known him. I'm thinking he'd adore you boys. I have loved watermelon this summer just like I did when I was pregnant with Hank. I have been thoroughly enjoying organic mama third trimester tea iced with honey. So good! Your daddy likes it hot before bed. We go see Dr. J tomorrow for our weekly check in. He is such a great provider. I have eaten a tomato sandwich every day since the tomatoes came in. Maybe 2 or 3 weeks. So good! I have been so grateful to God for you lately. So thankful to have the privilege of carrying you in my body. Your brother still wakes at night so I pray to Jesus that you will be my good sleeper. I'll love you all the same if you aren't though.. Just ask Hank. I am so excited to stay at home with you and brother.
Hank!
Your vocabulary has taken off this week!! You are saying big sentences and one of your most used is "I don't want it". You love catching frogs, bugs, going fishing, playing soccer in the living room with me and your dad, playing baseball, wallering all over me and your dad, eating Aldi's penguins, ice cream, watermelon, your vitamins, riding your tricycle, walking to see turner's horses, and "fwimming". I don't know if I already mentioned this or not but Brittany gave you a great hair cut and you look so handsome!! On Tuesday you started answering "yeah" to yes or no questions and to confirm if what we guess you are saying is correct. We had our annual cousin camp out last night at maw maws and you were fired up. You love your big cousins and they love you. I am excited for you to meet brother. I have been soaking up all of our time lately. You are such a joy to be around with the exception of a few ugly moments that require discipline. I cannot believe you will be 2 soon. Praying for you to be strong and courageous. Praying you will live a life worthy of the sacrifice Christ made. Praying that your faith will only grow stronger as each day passes. I want you to know Jesus and I want the people around you and Miles to know your love for the Lord by the life you live and speak into others. I want you to lead your wives and children and protect them. I love you boo bear. Forever and always.
