Having to chase a toddler around (and while pregnant to boot) is hard work. When he isn't home? I look forward to bedtime if only so I can relax in my bed and relax. When he is home? I get bathtime reprieve! I get diaper changing repreive. Most weeks Hubby is away at least 3 nights, sometimes not getting home until late on the 4th night.

But now I look at how I currently spend my days.and I can't even imagine it. I've wondered about this since I found out we were pregnant and been afraid. Next week at this time I will be holding you in my arms.Īs the due date for baby girl draws closer and I put off packing for the hospital I also wonder what things will be like. Your godparents can't wait to meet you too! We've settled on a baptism date and will be taking you to Boston to be baptized in April. I know he is going to be so excited to finally meet you and be able to sing to you in person. He's grown up so much in such a short amount of time. He talks about how he will share with you when you arrive. Spencer also loves being in your room.he loves to tell us what is in each picture that is on the wall. I still enjoy sitting in your nursery and just gliding and taking everything in, it's just so peaceful. But of course you can decide to come in the next few days and throw us for a loop.but please don't. I've opted for a c-section just because of issues when laboring with Spencer and it just makes sense with the schedule Daddy has and us not having family so close by. We had our last OB visit this week and now the paperwork is filed and we are officially ready to have you come on March 1. Ready to join in the writing in the raw?

Your voice changes and even the look in your eyes changes as you listen, after asking a question that in the end? Isn't really your business.Īs parents we are all trying to do what is right for us and our families.

I find that even if you think you are not doing this? You are. I don't talk condescendingly or look down my nose at someone because their course of action is not one I would entertain. But what I don't do is make someone feel bad for THEIR decision, even if it would not be my own. I make assumptions without knowing all the facts. Even something as simple as whether to ear pierce a child gets you judged.ĭon't get me wrong, I judge. How we give birth, how we discipline, to vaccinate pr not, to circumsize or not, to breastfeed or bottle feed, the list seems endless. Over at we've had quite a few post about how we are judged as parents. 'Do not judge, and you will never be mistaken.'
