It's here! We have less than 100 days until the arrival of our son! The countdown reminds me of the countdown to our wedding a couple of years ago. The only difference is we actually have NO IDEA of when this little guy will make his appearance into the world, which for a planner, is a little scary.
We have started looking at child care options - and apparently a little too late, as all the places I have called thus far there is a waiting list for which we wouldn't be able to get in until December. Yikes! Who knew child care was such in high demand! We have our work cut out for us, that is for sure. Please pray that we find a safe and comfortable environment for our son in the near future :).
The closer we get to the birth, the build up of reality is starting to settle in. There are SO many decisions you have to make for such a small person. From child care to diapers - it feels like everything is such a major decision. Its amazing to see how many friends/family have taken on this adventure ahead of us and did it with so much grace. I feel like a newborn baby colt trying to walk :) (if you have never seen a baby horse trying to walk - definitely google it!).
Oh! A couple of weeks ago - Andy was able to feel the baby move for the first time! It is super cool to be able to finally share a portion of this time with him. It is also super weird to be able to look down at your stomach and see it jump with movement! I have heard in the coming weeks - this movement will continue to get stronger and more bold - so we are looking forward to that.
