Best parts of being pregnant right now is the miracle that I am. A third boy on the way to irrevocably change our family, and our lives forever is both exciting and humbling. I'm just plain grateful for this gift. Worst part - I'm getting so big I don't feel like I have much room to breathe. Aside from my usual discomfort most of the day, and just starting to loose sleep at night and the regular bouts of itchiness, I promise to endure for 2+ months until the big arrival. Poor Patrick has to put up with me until then.
Despite my complaining, I am tough and I can take it. Everyone says you should be glowing and happy during pregnancy, but consider that logic when it's your third baby in your last trimester! Being grateful is the best I can do right now, sorry.
What's more stressful is trying to find a house before son #3 arrives. At this rate, this is unlikely to happen. There's just nothing out there. Patrick and I found one house that we liked, but it was a short sale that had 10 other offers on it. It was four bedrooms on 1/2 acre and listed for $318K (pictured above). Amazing price, and we were going to do a lot of renovation. Apparently, we came in second,which you know, I wish we never knew that part because I'm sure it was a difference of $5K or something. The loss of it was a blow, and part of me is still in mourning over it. I need to let go and just trust that God has another place He wants for us. Or hope the purchasers will back out. Is anything too big for God? Nope.
In finding this property, I have discovered some things that I didn't really know I wanted, and I think Patrick feels the same way too. I'll blog more on that later. I'm in a blogging mood, so watch out.
