A few weeks ago, I asked my mother-in-law Kim if she had any family photo albums. We had so much fun going through old pictures, and other paraphernalia from Cory's childhood.
These photos taken at the hospital right after Cory was born struck me as so sweet and beautiful. Their first few moments as a little family of three.
25.5 years later and they have five kids--the youngest just turned 16!
Right now, as I sit at 32 weeks pregnant, labor and delivery seem like the ultimate adventure. I've been so focused on just making it there. Do days even exist after May 8th?
But really, how silly of me. That will be just the very start of our story. It makes me appreciate every little kick and nudge I feel right now. Hopefully I can hold on to this appreciation during midnight cry sessions, and messy diaper changes, and everything else that I can't even imagine right now.
And then there's these, which make just make me happy:
