90 days to go!

Our Little Miracle's arrival is quickly nearing...  About three more months to be exact. It's all becoming so incredibly real! He's getting so big that I can feel his little appendages when he moves...an arm, a leg, .....even his head..etc. Joshua's movements have also become more and more consistent and so much more visible from the outside... This morning he had the BIG STRETCH (I think he was laying sideways at the time :) and his little hands poked out the left side of my belly while his feet poked out the right! It was hilarious! That actually woke me up:) Can't wait to meet this little boy that we already love SO much! Not long now. The days are just flying by...

Well, we are now full swing into the 3rd trimester and everything is happening so fast. So far, there are only two things I do not like: the break outs on my face and the return of the occasional morning sickness. I never thought that at this point I would still be experiencing nausea. This past week has been crazy though. I have had to visit the bathroom a couple of times because of the morning sickness. I guess this is something that is here to stay until baby Joshua is born. As for the breakouts on my face..... I am helpless for now.. :( All I can do is cleanse my face regularly and wait till the hormonal surge evens off. Despite all these side effects....... I can only say thanks that we have been blessed to have our little miracle. These little sacrifices are temporary and they will pass but Joshua will be a lifelong blessing!

This week is a landmark in our lives too because Jonathan will be celebrating his birthday on the 12th!! Happy (early) birthday honey!!!! Can you imagine that during your next birthday, Joshua will be with us... I can't wait till he can sing to you .... happy b/day.. preferably in Ekegusii or Swahili... that will be fun :) We love you and pray that the year you have ahead will be filled with joyous times and you will tackle the challenges it brings with grace and victory! I just have to mention this..... In the coming year, you will be celebrating your first Father's day too :)

Ok, after all the excitement about Jonathan's landmark celebration.... here is this week's picture. I have not weighed myself but I can feel the pounds adding on............I am trying to eat healthy now that my appetite is back in a big way :)

Week 27

Thanks everyone and see you all next week :)
