In one month, our world is going to be rocked! Literally. We'll be rocking Baby boy Newman #2 in a few short weeks. (Although I'm sure it's going to drag on as I not-so-patiently and anxiously wait.) This pregnancy has flown by to say the least. At times it actually makes me sad because I want to savor every big pregnant belly moment and time for those moments is getting less and less as each hour passes. As hard as it is to remember all the details and feelings of carrying Owen almost two years ago, I know that these new feelings of kicks and anticipation will fade with time as well. Thankfully, they will be replaced with memories and emotions of holding a precious perfect little life, and smelling that new baby smell. That's a pretty fair trade if you ask me.
If you think having a baby is a big family change, in one month we will also be packing up and moving to Grand Island. In my opinion each of those events is enough excitement for a year, but don't call us exciting for cramming it all into a few weeks - call us crazy! Just like with this baby's birthday, the date for the big move is yet to be established. Hopefully, they won't pick the same day. This baby will come when he's ready. And our house will sell when it's ready. While that definitely raises the blood pressure of this left-brained planner, I know that it will all work out in the end. The baby may not have a cute nursery to sleep in his first night at home, but I did get him a cute little outfit (including shoes) to leave the hospital with. And, as Jason says, he'll never know, or care. He has two parents, a big brother, and lots of family who love him. God doesn't make mistakes, so it is no mistake that these two events are colliding now. Thankfully, it won't be more than we can handle. We will all just have to wait and see where we are and who we have in just one month.
