Thanks to a friend and our family photo session swap, I finally have a few non-self-portrait shots of myself! {You know how it goes, the person who loves to take all of the pictures is never in any of them.} These were taken a couple of weeks ago at 20 weeks pregnant, and I'm not sure if it was her photography skill or just my outfit, but it's barely noticeable. But appearances can be deceiving. Or at least I feel huge.
This pregnancy is flying by compared to the first. Life is busy this time. Not only does Asher keep me on my toes, but being in the middle of another Army move has my mind very occupied. I think I like it better this way. Pregnancy with Asher was wonderful for all of the newness of it. This time is wonderful for the sake that I'm not just waiting and wondering and then waiting some more to be a new mom, but enjoying our family of three along the way.
And boy does it feel good to be halfway to the finish line. I have to say that doing the first trimester twice in the last eight months has been a little taxing. But I'm so thankful to God that this little boy {another boy!} appears to be thriving. I don't think I'll ever take a healthy baby for granted again. Thanks be to Him for teaching me to be grateful in all circumstances; the ones that fit "our plans" as well as the ones that don't. One thing is sure, His sovereignty and faithfulness proves itself time and time again.
P.S. Don't let me fool you, this was the first and last time wearing heels during pregnancy, ha!
