We are now 33 weeks, what a journey! It feels good just saying we only have 7 weeks to go to meet our bundle of joy.
Watching TV of late, there are so many commercials, programs, and talk shows talking about thanksgiving. Being Kenyan, we do not celebrate the thanksgiving holiday but I have adopted this holiday because I feel it really does give everyone, especially me, a special chance to kick back, relax with family, and actually think about what to be thankful for. That being said, I have my own list of what to be thankful for and I would like to share it with you in the spirit of this year's Thanksgiving Holiday. I know thanksgiving isn't till a couple of days from today but hey I already know what I am thankful for:)
So here goes, this year I am thankful for...
- The baby that we have been blessed to have and especially for being able to carry him. He sure does nudges, rolls, and kicks that reassure, make me smile, and keep me company no matter where, when, and what I am going through.
- Jonathan, for going through this journey with me every step of the way.
- The struggles and joys that have taught me patience, appreciation, and humility on this journey.
- The unconditional love and support of family (I really do miss the ones in Kenya so much! I really miss you Mama na Tata)
- All my friends who have stood by me, you mean a lot to me!
- The opportunity to say Thank You to family, friends, the strangers that opened doors for me, and most importantly to God for being with me on this incredible journey.
- And I could go on and on...
I just realized I started doing this post when I was 23 weeks. In celebration of the 10 weeks I will post the belly picture at 23 weeks and the one at 33 weeks.... Interesting seeing how much I have grown in just 10 weeks. I am also 10 pounds heavier between the 10 weeks.
Here I am at 23 weeks
And, here I am at 33 weeks......
What a transformation of the human body in just 10 short weeks! Anyway, thanks for reading and see you all next week!
