84 Days to go -- yikes!

Last week was by far the best week of my pregnancy so far. While I didn't feel great most of the week, I felt more connected than ever to that tiny baby growing in there.

Allen was out of town a few nights last week, which gave me and the baby a few quiet nights alone. He's been really active lately and I've found ways to play with him. Just talking to him or gently poking at my stomach is enough to get him spinning and kicking like crazy. It's too funny to watch my stomach shifting and contorting out of control.

In other news we got an early shower gift this week from Allen's mom -- the glider and ottoman! I love it and now the nursery feels complete. I've already sat in there a couple times rocking and talking to the baby, though I can't wait to rock with him in my arms.

Today I am 28 weeks pregnant. I can't get over how fast this pregnancy is going by. My goal is to really enjoy these final weeks with Allen before we become a family of three. I know our lives are going to change so much soon. While that's a very welcome change, it's just been the two of us for the last 6 years and I'm going to miss that, too. Allen is an amazing husband, partner and friend and I'm so lucky to share my life with him.

This is very sweet. I can't wait to read future posts when you can't imagine what life was like without your little guy :)
Time sure is flying by! Enjoy every second of it (as you plan).
