Hiccup..Hiccup..Hiccup

My wee little baby girl is hiccuping right now..so cute!!!!

I am 31 weeks today! We cannot believe that in an estimated 9 weeks Isabella will be born! Honestly, it makes me cry everytime I think about it. I cannot wait to meet her and hold her in my arms and look into her beautiful eyes. It's so overwhelming to think about at times-like there's so much to do in such little time. Although I've heard most moms feel that way before their kids are born.

The shower went great! We got so much stuff that we needed and are still trying to find space for it all! We just have to rearrange a little and then it will be perfect!
Thank you to everyone who came and were so kind and generous to Isabella! <3

I have such mixed emotions right now. I really want her out of my belly so I can hold her and see her finally, but at the same time I fear not being able to protect her enough. Right now she's in me and I can protect her and keep her safe so much easier. I want her to be happy and know how much she is loved always! To never feel pain or suffer-even though I know that is not possible to prevent that sometimes. That's life.

The night before our wedding my Mom gave me all the letter she's written to me since I was born. I cried so hard! I was/am her baby girl and now I'm having a baby girl. The amount of love she felt for me even then is so amazing because I feel it already for Isabella. To see the words she wrote throughout the years breaks my heart in good and bad ways. To hear how I hurt her as a young woman in ways that at the time I couldn't fathom and I know that it may happen to me with my baby girl. I want Isabella to be my best friend as I have been with my Mom.
Lets just keep hoping and praying for a healthy delivery for baby and I!!!!
