Today we will have our baby!

The day is finally here! I am at the hospital being induced today. It is such an exciting time. I am having contractions and starting to progress. Anyone who has had a baby knows the feeling. I am excited, scared, and happy all at the same time. I am so ready to hold him and feel his little hands and feet. It is an emotional time for me. I want to be able to see him so bad but for now I will just be content to see him with my fingertips and know that someday I will get to see him with my eyes.

I am also very excited to be able to deliver him in Cedar City. This will be my first pregnancy that I have not delivered at the University of Utah. I am high risk because of my Lupus and all of the complications it brings. So it is such a blessing to have him here and be so close to home. It will be fun to bring him home to our new home. The nursery is ready and waiting for this little guy.

Brandon's parents are watching our kids today at our house. When it is time to deliver we will have them bring Peyton, and Kai so they can be here to be a part of it. The kids are so excited and ready to see him. I am almost as excited for them as I am for Brandon and I to have him here.

I am going to rest for a bit and try to relax. He will be here before we know it.

What are you most Thankful for?

This time of year is always a good time to reflect on the things that we are Thankful for. This year I have so many things that come to mind . I am so thankful for my sweet kids and for all the joy and laughter that they bring into my life. They make me so incredibly happy. I can't help but smile when I think of them. I love them so much. Soon we will be welcoming another little one and I am so thankful for that blessing in our lives.

I am also thankful for my amazing new home. I am thankful for a beautiful home to rase my family and create so many new and exciting memories. The fact that we found this house right next to an amazing park, in an amazing neighborhood is just a miracle. The timing was just totally unbelievable. I know that we have been so blessed.

I am also thankful for an amazing husband. I know that he would do anything for me. He is always there to lead me and help me with everything. I love him more than words can express. Thank you for everything you do.
