6 weeks

6 weeks until we meet our Baby Girl. I can't believe it. It seems like February 1 was just yesterday. . .not five months ago. Relationship with our birth mom is still great. She sends us little updates and funny little happenings. We're so grateful that she chooses to share those things with us. I bought Baby Girl a journal so that when birth mom sends us little stories I put them in the book.

Writing in the journal has kind of been an emotional experience for me. It makes Baby Girl seem even more real. I talk to her as if she was here. Telling her that I sat in her room for over an hour today or how fun it is to see Daddy get excited about her joining our little family. I told her about my love for the ocean and how I hope she comes to love it as much as I do. And again, I tell her the funny stories that her birth mom shares with us.

So far, while in the womb Baby Girl has kicked birth mom on her bladder she had to excuse herself from a client (Birth Mom is also a massage therapist), punched Birth Mom's stomach so hard that a client on the table felt it (he was kind'a weirded out), and been called feisty by Birth Mom's doctor after she pushed the dr's hand away while he was trying to listen to Baby Girl's heart beat. Baby Girl already knows what she does and does not like. Haha.

I still feel like we have so much to do and projects for the baby to finish. Hopefully the nesting bug kicks in soon.

Let the count down begin!
