The joy a new life brings you is so overwhelming. Every moment I think of her I just smile and hope that I will be a good mom to her. I have this fear that I am going to be way over protective of her. I just love her to death I don't want anything bad to happen. I now know how our parents always felt. They only want the best for us - and that's what I want for Ava. When we made bad choices, our parents hearts sank - I know that feeling now and Ava isn't out of my stomach yet! I guess that's what getting ready to be being a parent is all about.
Things are coming along. I got all her clothes washed, and her blankets washed. Most of her things are put away to where they are going to be right now. Got the crib in the house - just waiting for Ava's father to put it up!! I can't wait to see it. I think it will really hit me then. Seeing the crib with the bedding and her clothes ready for her. All we will need is her!
I don't know how my mom did it. Giving birth to me in July! Being pregnant in 90+ heat is not fun! Luckily there are places (like work...yuck) that have air conditioning. I saw - try to enjoy what you can with the heat because come a couple months we will stuck in the cold nasty weather for 10 months! The best part of being pregnant in the summer is I get to wear my cute summer dresses that really show my stomach! That's kinda fun!
So more cleaning and organizing things to come. Waiting for the second baby shower so I can plan on what more I need to get for Ava. I know I will be missing something, but what I can get before she arrives will be nice. The great thing right now is though, is if she came today - we would only need to get the car seat. Well... Eric would have to put that crib together too!
