Hannah Will Be Here Soon!

I am a bit emotional today as we prepare for Hannah to get here TOMORROW! It's hard to believe it's already time for her to be here! There has been so much planning that has gone into getting ready for this day, and I can't believe it's now just hours away.  This pregnancy has brought me so much joy, and it truly has been such a wonderful expereince. It has been much like my pregnancy was with Aubrey, and for that I am grateful. Due to the last two pregnancies, I have had a different persepective on the things I took for granted in my first pregnancy. I have felt and loved experiencing things like hiccups, and I have even loved seeing my big, huge belly; despite the discomfort that it has brought on. I have forgotten what it's like to carry a baby full term. Wow! Even Aubrey came a couple weeks early, so this is the longest I have been pregnant with any of my girls.  Today, I am wanting to treasure my family of four, and treasure these last moments being pregnant with Hannah. It will be exciting to see what she looks like tomorrow, how much she weighs, etc.. My doctor has said, "I don't think she is going to be a small baby." I guess we will see!  The girls are so excited, although Aubrey keeps saying, "I don't want you to go to the doctor." She is my sensitive girl!

I wanted to take a look back at some special moments in this pregnancy, some blogged about previously, and some not. Hannah, I hope you are able to treasure this post one day in the future. It's amazing how much I can love a little baby so much that I have never met. Aubrey and Ryleigh, if she is anything like the two of you, than I am the luckiest Mom in the world.

October -Transforming Ryleigh's room to Hannah Beth's room!

October 13-Aubrey and Ryleigh's first night to share a room! They did so great too! That first night there was a storm, so Aubrey woke up in the night, but she would of done that even in a room by herself. These girls love sharing a room, and wake up in the morning laughing and playing. I love it!

After.....

Church Baby Shower (November 8)

My sweet church friends gave me such a thoughtful, wonderful shower. Since Hannah is our rainbow baby, the entire shower was rainbow themed. Below is a bottle of rainbow colored skittles with the rainbow baby description underneath it. It meant so much to me!

The food was amazing too!

Thanks friends!

Claire got to join in the fun too!
