Two more months have passed by, and I haven’t let out so much as a peep, have I? <\/p>\n

I don’t really know what to say or how to explain it. I have been so incredibly lucky to have a relatively smooth pregnancy so far, but I have still found little to no energy to write about it all. <\/p>\n

Maybe it’s that I am just enjoying soaking it all in.
\nMaybe it’s that my priorities are changing.
\nMaybe I’m just plain lazy.<\/p>\n

I’m not sure.<\/p>\n

All I know is that our little boy wonder is due to arrive in a little over a month(!), and then I know I really<\/i> won’t have much time or energy to write. <\/p>\n

People have been asking me if I’m ready for his arrival, and I never know what to say in response. I see a glimmer in some moms eyes that say, “Oh honey, you can’t possibly be ready for what’s about to happen.” But when I say “Not yet,” they look at me like, “Well what are you waiting for? He’s coming any day now!”<\/p>\n

I guess the answer is I’m as ready as I’ll ever be. I am ready for a wild ride filled with ups, downs, big fat question marks and exclamation points. I am ready for surprises and revelations and lessons that open my mind and my heart. I am ready to meet our son. I’m ready to fall in love.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
