So Close, Yet It Feels So Far...

Here I am, 36 Weeks pregnant, and the last 3 weeks have felt like the longest part of my pregnancy yet. I'm so grateful to be pregnant and be carrying my sweet, sweet baby girl, but honestly I'm exhausted these days. Wendy says it perfectly in the movie 'What to Expect When You're Expecting':

"I just wanted the glow-- the one that

 they promise you on the cover of magazines. 

Well I'm calling it: Pregnancy sucks! Making a human 

being is really hard, I have no control

over my body or my emotions. Gar-bear, I'm

sorry, all I want to do is punch you in the face..."

I feel like no one ever talks about how hard it is to be pregnant, hence my favorite part of this quote: "Making a human being is really hard"! I couldn't agree more...

I am just so anxious now to meet my little girl! I'm so excited to hold her and see what she looks like. I already know she's going to be a wild one cause that's how she is now. Last time we had an ultrasound the nurse even said, "Your baby is crazy!" That's expected though considering she has me for a mother and Zach for a father.
Even though pregnancy has been hard it has already been worth it: feeling her little movements, seeing her on the ultrasound, hearing her heartbeat. Everything is such an amazing experience and I would do it a hundred times over! Granted I haven't gone through the labor and delivery portion yet, but I know when all is said and done I will still feel the same. In so many ways I feel like I have been waiting for her my whole life. I love her so much and can't wait for her to come into our lives in the next month!
