Things I now can enjoy

Now that the "9 months" of pregnancy are over (close enough) there are definitely things I can enjoy again!

*Sleeping on my stomach
*Hugging Jaris without my belly getting in the way
*Less frequent bathroom trips in the middle of the night
*The taste of beer
*Heartburn is very minimal
*Sitting cross-legged
*Being able to get up and down off the floor easier
*Cleaning without running out of breath
*No more bleeding gums
*Best of all, no more hospital bed rest!

As much as that is all positive and things I can enjoy, I now do miss:

*My naps
*More sleep
*Having that "time of the month" again
*Getting up and going at my leisure
*My husband since he had to return to work
*Being less worried...I worry constantly now!
*Working out (for the time being with healing)
*Vacations - it'll be a while

Being a Mom is definitely new and hard work, but as each passing day goes by I literally fall more in love with our little girl. I know it will have it's ups and downs but when I hold her, feed her, love her, etc...I just can't wait to see her grow up and become her own person. Jaris is still such an amazing dad! We have become even closer now having gone through what we did, and my love for him continues to grow. He truly loves his girls! We can't wait to see where this first year of being parents will take us!

This quote fits perfectly for Jaris! :)
