Discoveries I've made about myself during this 9 months of Pregnancy...


1. I'm Apparently Not Very "Hormonal"
You always hear about the constant crying of a pregnant woman. I keep waiting for this "river of tears" to make an appearance... but it's just not there... and doesn't seem to be coming.
Instead... I find myself laughing about EVERYTHING!
And that Bouncy Belly Laugh that I now possess makes me laugh even harder!

2. My Belly Has AMAZING stretching capabilities
As you can see from pictures in previous posts, my belly has grown to unbelievable heights unknown to most bellies! Yet.. somehow has managed to do this without a single stretch mark.
This Blows My Mind! I just hope it also has an amazing capability of shrinking!

3. I still "LOVE" being pregant... well.. sort of, anyway
After having Keegan, I was one of those strange women who walked around saying they just "LOVED" being pregant.
Well.... this pregancy has changed my mind... just a little.
I still do... minus month 8 & 9

4. I can be sad & unbelievably excited and happy at the same time
I'm not sure if this makes sense...
I find myself almost sad that phase in our life is almost over.
Never again will it just be "Mommy, Daddy & Keegan"
But then at the same time I am so excited about this little 4th addition to our family. Although it seems impossible right now to love anyone else as much as I love my Keegeroos.... I just know that at first glance my heart will have just as much of a "stretching capability" as this belly of mine :)


5. I'm not quite as patient as I always thought I was!
I don't really have much to say about this, except.... this baby seems to be taking
FOREVER!!!!!

I am so excited. I wish I could be there when the baby is born. I am thinking about coming up with dad if I can get off work. You look great to be so far along. That last month is the worst. Hang in there!

Love ya,
Sis

Nichole, very nice thoughts. I too love being pregnant I even love going to the hospital, even knowing what is ahead. But I'm not as blessed as you with no hormones and stretch marks.
I remember when I was expecting Logan our second, I laid in bed & cried & cried because I couldn't imagine loving another baby as much as I did Briana. But guess what, you do. It's completely overwhelming the love that you have. Now I'm getting ready to multiply that love to the 4th. It's awesome. Lord willing Monday afternoon I'll finally meet the new addition. You're in my prayers. Stay encouraged!!

Hey! I think Chip was a little shocked to see us in the WalMart parking lot in Columbus on Monday! He said you were to have the baby this week. I hope everything went well...we look forward to seeing some pics. After 4 babies, I can say I also loved being pregnant. There is nothing like having a life inside you, and having that incredible connection. Plus it was the only time in my life that I ever lost weight! Since we're done having kids, I guess it will now have to be diet and exercise! Ugh!
