This blog is about me changing. I have met so many amazing women in my life and have been so inspired by them. I want to be like that. I feel like I am looking down a long road but it is the most important road of my life. I am a new wife and now a mother. If there is ever a time to change it is now...

heartburn

I've gotten just a few hours of sleep but the heartburn is so bad that sleep will remain for now just a desire of my heart.

Baby is awake which makes sleeping difficult too.

In the few hours I spent sleeping I had a dream some crazy person kidnapped my boy. My worst nightmare. I didn't rest well.

Also. This apartment is so HOT! Why is the air not turned on?

It's 3:01...Henrik is rolling around and kicking his legs and I just love to feel him moving inside of me. Even though this heartburn BURNS and my dreams during pregnancy are like total torture AND this baby seems to want to be asleep all day and awake all night....etc.

I sit here, propped up with 5 pillows and a body sized boppy, totally in love with the babe growing inside of me, hoping that this pregnancy takes it's time. I still hope that I will get to enjoy every minute of this pregnancy until it's over. I know our life is totally crazy right now and crazy often = time flying....but I hope it doesn't.

I love being pregnant. I'm so sorry I didn't enjoy Freddy's pregnancy more. I'm so sorry I was so grouchy (OVER NOTHING). I'm so sorry I didn't appreciate more, the miracle taking place right there inside my tabernacle. I can't change the past but isn't it wonderful that I CAN CHANGE?

I can change because of Christ. Plain and simple. Faith in Christ changes people and change is so good. Change gives me hope for myself and hope strengthens me. My heart burns with a testimony of Christ and His all encompassing atonement and a love for Him and my Father, my creator. My heart burns with gratitude and joy for the man sleeping soundly next to me, for the boy sleeping wildly next to him and for the other boy rolling around inside me.

isn't the tree in the background so cool. My sister spotted it and snapped this picture of me while I was waiting for my family to join me for our annual pictures the other day.
I love the exposed roots...and that growing belly :)
