Feeling blessed and checking in

I feel like I've been lagging in the blogging department for real.  I know, shocking considering I'm 9 months pregnant and still chasing my two year old!  Ha ha... But I felt like I needed to post something.  I will officially hit the 9 month (by weeks) marker this Friday.  I will be 36 weeks... So crazy!  Hard to believe this little boy will be here "any day" so to speak.  I've nearly finished the nursery (how long have I been saying that!?!?).  A couple more little projects and I should be good.  I promise to share once its done.  There's just so much "storage" going on in the room still that I don't even want to take pictures yet.  Too much chaos for me.  But I made great progress today.  =)

Isabella charms me more every single day.  She is just such an amazing person.  We went apple picking yesterday which was great fun.  I love watching her discover her world.  Sure, she is two, and certainly acts it frequently.  But I am able to keep in mind her developmental need to seek (and push) her boundaries, and establish her own individual identity.  Well, usually.  She is ultimately a joy to be around though, constantly amazing me with how funny, kind, loving, and smart she is.  I am truly blessed to have this little person in my life.  To call her my daughter, exceeds all possible expectations.

I'll have a new pregnancy questionnaire sometime this weekend with a new bump picture.  I anticipate big differences from my last shot as I feel HUGE!  Did I mention that this little (hahaha) boy is already over 6.5 lbs according to the last ultrasound!?  Ultrasounds can be off (way off) but since I've always anticipated a large baby, I'm thinking it is pretty spot on.  Just makes me hope that much more that he comes a little early, not only so that we get to do this the "old fashioned" way (no induction) but also so he isn't 10 lbs or bigger!

I'll leave you a picture with my angel girl, just because she makes my heart so very happy.
