Progress

WOW, we are really making progress on the nursery. We are almost done with most of the 'big' things and all that is left is the finishing touches of cuteness! We are having such a fun time working together to put the room together and it has been such a blessing in our lives. Matthew and I get to really sit down and talk about baby Larson and who we think they will be and the kind of person we want to help him or her grow up into. We talk about our parenting ideas and things and things that we all want to do together as a family. I cry basically every time. Story of my life. We have already decided that I am going to be the embarrassing mother that is ALWAYS crying and so proud of my baby's accomplishments. I about to start crying right now just thinking about it....pretty pathetic ha. But, I can't help it. I am so ready to start a family with the man that I love and work through the trials of motherhood. I love you baby Larson already so much! I cannot wait to meet you even though I already feel like I know you in my heart!

Matthew and I were talking the other day about how crazy it would be for us to set up this whole room and not have a baby placed with us before we move from Rexburg into our first home. It made me really sad to think about because I feel like baby Larson is so close already. I just have this feeling and push to get things ready for him or her like they are already on their way to us. I can feel the tug at my heart. But, what if I am wrong and we still have a long wait ahead of us. So naturally I start crying and my loving husband always knows exactly what to say. He just holds me, wipes my tears and tells me "Well if we move before the baby comes, we will at least know exactly how we want everything." It is such a small thing, but its true and it made me laugh and that is all that matters. For me, it is the little moments that Matthew and I are getting to enjoy while we work together on little projects in the nursery that make waiting no struggle at all. I know that the Lord will bless us in the right time; and while we wait, at least I have the best partner to be able to share that with.
