Out of my Comfort Zone!

I went to see the dr this morning and we scheduled my c-section!! We are set for August 17th at 7:15 am. I have to admit I got a small lump in my throat and tears in my eyes. Obviously I knew this day was coming but just hearing it finalized was so surreal :)

Things are starting to come together, little things are falling into place and so many of our worries and fears have slowly started to fall by the wayside. Things are look bright and I am truly getting excited to have this new baby complete our family. She is SO loved already I just can't wait for her to get here.

I had some extra flex hours at work and took off at lunch yesterday and I had 4 WHOLE hours at home all by myself, it was AWESOME! I cleaned the whole house from top to bottom and got 3/4 of all of the tubs of clothes, hung, cleaned, folded and put away. I know this probably doesn't sound awesome to some people but for me I LOVE crossing things off my to do list! :) I think we are really starting to get ready for the new baby.

So I have totally debated putting this on my blog. When I went to take maternity pics the photographer was SO sweet and she suggested trying some "different" things. I am much more the stay inside the box person especially when it comes to pictures of me! I get my cd tomorrow and I can't wait to see the the rest of the photos of the kids hands on my belly, etc... She sent this picture to me last night and she has a technique where she puts textures on the photo. As much as it makes me uncomfortable I really do love this photo! I know one day I will look back and be grateful I have it and by that time in my life will probably think I didn't look 1/2 bad! ha! 

It definitely won't be posted on facebook but thought I would share it on my blog! Today is a good day, I am completely grateful for all of the hardships over the last months because little by little they are turning into huge blessings!
