Last belly picture, taken the night before delivery.
Thank you to the faithful readers who have kept up with this blog through the end! I love your comments and thank you for letting me vent last week. I needed it.
We are ready for Little Kev. It is funny to walk down the hallway of our three bedroom house and think that 2 1/2 years ago the two rooms on the right were filled with "stuff". By "stuff" I mean boxes from the move in, my computer, random wedding stuff that didn't get thrown out, wedding presents that were waiting to be opened until we had a real kitchen, and a whole lot of dust bunnies! Now I look in there and I see two little kid rooms. Mia's room is so cute. Aunt Barb made her the sweetest curtains and she sits and plays in there with her toys. She loves to go over to her dresser and pull out all of her clothes and throw them around the room. She has a basket of stuffed dolls and animals. Kev and I can watch her from our room, and she takes each animal out, talks to it, and hugs it and rubs it and then sets it next to the basket. It is really cute! Then next to her room is Baby Kev's. His is a tan and green room with his crib and dresser and a few toys. Big Kev really did an amazing job on both rooms. He makes Bob Vila look like an amateur. He painted the walls, made all the wainscotting, installed the hardwood floors, and made all the molding from knotty pine boards. Both rooms are beautiful.
Our house is really complete. When I was having so much trouble staying pregnant, I prayed so hard for one baby. I promised that I would never take for granted the one I had and I would never ask for another thing again. All I wanted was to have one. Now here I sit on the eve of having two. My life is complete. I don't "want" for anything. I love my husband, my kids, my house, my dog, our cars, my family and friends. If there was a contest for a content life, I would enter myself, because I really feel like I have it all. Every day I feel content and that is all I could wish for anyone. It is truly an amazing feeling. I enjoy every aspect of my life and I hope and pray that everyone can someday feel this contentment.
Until I have time to write again...
