Seriously? 33 weeks tomorrow? Only 7 weeks left? I can hardly believe it!!! I am sorry that I didn't blog earlier this week. It completely slipped my mind.
So, the baby shower was Saturday. It was fabulous. There were sooooo many people there. And we got everything that we needed and then some! Zoey isn't going to want for anything for a long time! Everything was perfect. I couldn't have asked for anything better.
Jeanette and I went that morning for massages. It was terrific. I recommend everyone to get one, especially pregnant women!! So relaxing!!!
It was good to see some people that I haven't seen in a while. A few of my school kids came and that made me super happy!
It took mom's and Karrie's cars and dad's truck to get everything to my house. No exaggerating! Our living room was packed! Levette walked into the house and didn't know what to say, except, where am I supposed to sit! lol.
It took me 2 days to sort through it all, read all of the cards and organize where everything needed to go. I was worn out!!!!!!!!
Tuesday was my checkup. Everything was good, except for my blood pressure. :( It was up just a little bit, so he told me to continue to monitor it, and to come back in a week.
So, when I checked it on Wednesday and Thursday, it was still slightly up. He said he wasn't worried too much because I had no other signs or symptoms of preeclampsia. So, so far, so good. Just continue to keep me and Zoey in your prayers.
It is so hard to believe that she will be here in 7 weeks or less. It just doesn't seem real! I keep feeling her move in my belly and it still amazes me. Our little miracle will be in our arms before we know it. Something that we never thought would ever happen. I thought that I would never get to experience a baby inside of me, growing and thriving. I knew that some way, some how, I would be a mom. Just not like this. God still performs miracles and do not ever let anyone tell you any differently. He does everything on HIS TIME!!!! That is all there is to it. Zoey has been special from day 1 and I will tell her that every single day. God has special plans for her, for our family. And I can not wait to find out what those plans are. :) God is so good and I am so grateful. Life couldn't be any better for me right now. I am so blessed. I have this beautiful baby on the way, a loving and caring husband that is so good to me, a family that is supportive and always there, friends that will drop everything and come when I need them, and a church that prays for me and is there for me. There is a song that says count your blessings, name them one by one. Take the time to do that right now. You may be in a rough time in your life, but it could be worse. Right down all of your blessings. I guarantee there are way more of those than anything else. And thank God for all of those blessings. Because at anytime, anything can change. We are never promised a tomorrow. Tell everyone that you love them and you are thankful that they are a part of your life. Live each day to the fullest. Yeah, you will have bad days, but at least you have that day!!!!
Love to all!!! I will update after my appointment next week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
