I guess, technically, that point was the positive pregnancy test but it’s only been in the last fourty-eight hours that I am officially ready for this baby. Maybe it was denial, but it was so much harder to imagine that this baby is coming and I told myself if I could just get through the weekend, that at midnight on Sunday night I would be ready. So waking up Monday morning was a little weird, and caused a little anxiety but it’s okay - I’m ready! And I totally forgot just how ugly late pregnancy can be. Ohmyword…I will spare you the naaaaasty details but let’s just say Tim is an angel for gazing upon my body at this point and still finding it beautiful. How easy pregnancy is on me for the first 9 months is totally made up for in the last two weeks. For sure.
That’s all I can muster today. Please keep my family in your prayers as my grandmother passed away early yesterday morning. It was sudden and yet not, but it’s sad and exhausting nonetheless.

I am sorry to hear about the loss of your Grandmother.
Sorry the last few weeks have been rough. I dreaded this stage of pregnancy. I was miserable, and huge, and did I say miserable!
Can’t wait to hear the news when Max arrives

I hate to hear about your grandmother’s passing. You and your family will be in my prayers.
I’m sure you are not nearly as hard to gaze upon as you might think! I do hope you’re feeling ok, though. Soon enough, you’ll be holding that sweet boy in your arms!
