Changes

Today has been a list of changes. Things I can/can't do....

Number one on the list is: I can no longer see my goods. I know TMI but seriously do you know how sad it is to not be able to see that. I know the next thing is my toes and it will be a hard pill to swallow.

Other items include being able to sleep on my back. I miss that so much. Luckily, this week I have been able to sleep on my sides with no aches and pains... probably because baby J is getting so big.

Clothes: those sure change. Half the under shirts I own are barely covering the bump. Though I find it excited I find myself sad that I can't just put it on and go... I have to do a check to see that nothing is exposing itself. Thankfully I have friends who have lovingly donated old maternity clothes and I am LOVING it.

Music is another thing I have noticed change. I pick up on those bad words, I keep it at a lower level... I even drove to work this morning listening to Baby Einstein: Play Date songs.

Baby you sure do change the world. I understand now that becoming a mother is not an over night thing. It is gradual and full of ups and downs. It is the greatest thing to happen to a woman. Will I ever go back to being "normal" - no. Do I want to? No!

The excitement for what lies ahead it so overwhelming I cry at times. We have a baby safe/momma car...Grandma said it the other day and I agree; I can't wait for you to be in the back seat while I sing random lullabies to you.

So, here is a toast to the changes. Can't wait to meet you baby J!
