Over Christmas break Ben and I got lots done for our new arrival. We cleaned the room my kids are moving into, ordered a new crib, moved stuff to the garage, picked a potential date, and YET we still have just touched the tip of the iceberg! If it were up to Ben I think he would say we were close to being done, BUT AS FOR ME. . . the nesting stage has hit and I can think of at least 2 Million things more to get done. Ben went to my 31 week appointment with me. Reality is sinking in for him (I think). I have reality kick me in the bladder a couple times and hour so I am anxious and so excited to see my little man.
Dumbo is not my favorite Disney show of all time, actually I think it has some kinda strange parts in it that creep me out, BUT I do love the Baby Mine song in it. There is NOTHING in the world that compares to the love a mother has for her child.
So in preparation for the next 7 1/2 weeks, and in hopes of getting some motivation I listened to this song and know that time will fly and I will have a new little baby here before I know it. We waited a long time for this little baby to come to us, so I am a little more appreciative and excited than I have been in the past. I know the Lord had a plan for him to come when he is and although it took sometime for me to grasp that, I am grateful for his divine plan and the things I learned from having faith in him!
For good measure here are some pictures from our 2010 Holidays:
We had a wonderful Christmas and New Years! I hope you all did too!!!

Hi!
What a wonderful post! I know you are so anxious to get this sweet little boy here - you waited a long time...and the time has finally come.
We do have to remember that we need to do things on the Lord's time, not ours. He has a plan for us, and even though it's sometimes hard to except, we do need to be patient and have faith.
I am excited to come and help you get ready! Let's git er' done!
Loved the pictures, my little angels are so cute! And the song, well, you know how I feel about it - it always makes me cry. I think about all of my sweet little grandkids when I hear it, and what special gifts they are in my life. And just think, we will have two more little angels very soon!
Love you,
Mom

What a very sweet post! I love how you are preparing for this great event. Your other two little ones are so adorable; I loved the Christmas pictures. I know that you are going to have such a sweet experience with this new little one. Love to you all! LeAnn
