My mood while writing this blog: Content :)

Today I'm realizing how soon this is going to be over! No more pregnant belly or feeling Jackson beat me up from the inside. On the other hand, I can't wait to see my little bean sprout's beautiful face and kiss those cheeks!

Eric has been talking to Jackson alot and it's amazing how Jack can be so quiet and when Eric talks to him, he starts moving around and nudging me in response. It's amazing.

I'm so happy right now with everything. I love staying home and being a wife and a soon to be mommy. I love my husband and he is so good to me. He even gives me back rubs in the middle of the night when I wake up uncomfortable and hot.

He's nervous about being a daddy but I know he'll be great. Kids love him. My 5 year old sister absolutely adores him and he plays everything she wants to including tea party haha. She's so excited to be an aunt. She kisses and hugs my belly all the time. She even started calling Jackson "Cracker Jack". How cute is that?! She and my brother (he's 7) are really my little rays of sunshine. I don't know what I'd do without them..as irritating as they can be at times! Whoever said sibling rivalry is only when you're close in age is a LIAR! Haha.

Our families are so excited to meet their first grandchild. My parents actually thought about adopting a child around 2 yrs old probably like a year and a half ago. They can't wait to have another little one around the house. And luckily, we live about 7 minutes from my in-laws and 10 from my parents. Nice and close to our families! My in-laws are waiting on edge to hear when I go into labor. They can't believe we're having a baby and are so happy. It's really a relief because my MIL especially, thought we were too young to get married and told us numerous times even at my bridal shower, that she was too young to be a grandma and we needed to wait a long time before having a baby. Our 2 year anniversary will be in November so we didn't wait too long. Now that's it's so close, they're thrilled and have been so supportive to us, I almost can't even believe it! Haha.

Anyways, sorry this is so long and so...random I guess. I just felt the need to express all these things! :)
