This is me a year ago yesterday. Aren't I the largest pregnant person ever? I really think I am. I weigh here about what Peter weighs now. And he's over a foot taller. Doesn't that just make me feel peachy!
So a year ago tonight at 11pm my water breaks. I am so shocked that an entire year has gone by. Those first 4 months of Andy's life seemed to last at least 3/4th of that time. The last 3 months have felt about 2 weeks long. I really thought that time had stopped after giving birth, but now I feel like Andy'll be at college before I realize it. Today he started looking like a toddler. He isn't walking yet, but he's looking so much older and more mature. Starting to lose some of that beautiful baby fat around his face.
The best part is that I just love him more and more every day. More than I thought possible. I was so miserable for those first few months, but I can now say that it was worth it to have such a wonderful person in my life. I want to be with him all the time, and I miss him when I'm not. He makes me smile all the time, and he makes me want another.
Tomorrow celebrates the best day of my life. I'm so lucky!
This part? "Those first 4 months of Andy's life seemed to last at least 3/4th of that time." Cracked me up!
Happy Birthday!
