Limbo

With only 3 weeks left until the baby's due, we're really close to reaching the crest of parenthood. Now that we are this far it feels like I'm an old man. (In fact, I took a real age test a couple weeks ago that said I'm actually 30 years old not 23.) It's kind of traumatic how much life changes with a child in the picture. There's plenty of things that change... here's a couple of things on my mind:
  • No temple trips for Amelia until Jonah's feedings are at least 4 hours apart.
  • Diapers
  • Having another person around the house to communicate with.
  • Having to teach that new person EVERYTHING they need to know about the gospel.
  • Family Home Evening finally becomes family home evening. (maybe not for a few more years, but it will be different)
I'm sure there's plenty more, but those are probably the most foremost in my mind.

Its amazing how long 3 weeks can seem and so short at the same time considering all things we haven't done to get ready...like pack "the bag,"

Bedelia,
What is your official due date again? You're almost a mommy!!!! I thought this was going by fast, but my body is really starting to hurt and I realize I have a long way to go!
