Last night I woke up around 3am. I wasn't uncomfortable or anything- I just woke up and couldn't get back to sleep. Yesterday at my doctor's appointment I was told that assuming I don't go into labor sooner, I would be induced on Monday morning- so maybe I was just anxious. Tyler is always so concerned with me at night so when I got up to walk around for a bit, he got up to. I paced the house back and forth until I felt like I could sit down for a while. Then I asked him to come and sit with me on the couch. He never complained about being up- he just came and sat down beside me. With one arm around me and one hand on my belly (she was having a restless night, too!) he snuggled me on the couch until I could relax. After a little bit, I felt like I could go to bed again so we went back into the bedroom. He positioned my numerous pillows and rolled up t-shirts around my body then kissed my forehead and made his way back to the other side of the bed. As I was lying there trying once again to sleep, I kept thinking how blessed I was. My sweet husband cares so much about me and is so willing to serve me and care for me. I have a new little life growing inside of me who is completely dependent on me. She is perfect. I love my husband more than I could ever say, and I know he loves me and will love our little girl more than anything. The excitement in his eyes whenever he feels her kick, or whenever we talk about how it will be with our new little baby makes my heart soar. I don't know what I've done to be so lucky. To have been raised in a family that has so much love for one another and now to be making my own little family with that same love abounding. It makes me wonder, what could be any better than this?

That's cute. I remember Blake coming home from work a few days after I had the baby and putting on "Just like Heaven,", doing the laundry, making me dinner, and taking care of the baby so I could de-stress. I remember thinking those same things! Good luck with your labor and delivery, we'll keep you in our prayers. We will be out of town for 2 weeks and won't have internet but you can email Blake and he will be able to check in while he is in training.
I am so excited for you. Everything will go well when you deliver you gorgeous baby girl, I know it will. I can't wait to hear from you.
You two are too cute!! Best of luck to you on this wonderful adventure!!
Can't wait for news. Good luck! Love you guys
