So this week my bro and sis are visiting. We’ve having an awesome time, especially since I took Thursday and Friday off. We’ve got the baby room painted (actually, the sibs are in there painting on the second and last coat now! It looks marvelous!!), and we’ve hung out a whole lot. Yesterday we went to Vancouver and hung out with Jen in Chinatown and even went to Dr. Sun Yat Fung botanical garden, and then dropped by Ikea and checked out all the lovely pretty furniture. It’s so awesome being able to have them here, without the parents telling us what to do. Things have certainly changed since we were kids and living under the same house. Definitely more relaxed, less tension, more calmness. They’re going to make a great aunt and uncle.

It’s amazing how much my priority has changed over just the last year. I mean, think about it, I went from perusing through bridal lingerie for our wedding day to perusing through Ikea for baby furniture and buying baby clothes and stuff like that. I feel like such a different person, yet I am loving who I am becoming. It brings me joy to be able to care for this little bundle inside my growing tummy. I can’t wait to meet this tiny person who has changed my world so completely and turned it upside down and inside out. A little miracle child. Everyone’s waiting for her arrival. It’s so awesome how much she is already loved and she’s not even born yet.

I am positive she can feel it too.
