We’re approaching 31 weeks in the pregnancy … I’m very excited to meet this baby … life is going change so much and I am so grateful for this well-loved change already. As hectic and insane as it will be some days (most days!), I am going to love having another baby in the house!
Lately, my firstborn baby, Lacey, has really formed an attachment to mommy … at first, I didn’t understand this new stage – she cries sometimes when I leave her, refuses to go to her gramma’s (a familiar, loving home she usually begs to go to!), says she misses me when I have to go out and wants to sleep with me every night. Someone mentioned it might be the baby … I’m not sure, but I’m actually enjoying this extra loving from my firstborn.
We’ve stayed up late, ate cherries and talked about our day. She braids my hair and plays with her stuffed animals.
Lacey’s starting Grade One in three weeks. {sigh} It’s bittersweet. I love having her be my “oldest” and I love sharing our late nights together but I also miss that baby/little girl stage …
She’s growing up so fast and I’m glad to have a few nights a week together of just being … together. Wouldn’t change it for the world.
