life of charmings

love, family, happiness

June 27, 2015 in baby bump· horses· maddalena· mommyhood· polo friends· pregnancy

in the fiiiinal stretch…

hey hey, 39 weeks! and… hey there, polo match! we maaade it to the final stretch! [for both things actually! we are gonna be so sad when our polo friends, humans and horses, head out after this weekend!]

so, i was thinking just recently about how funny it is that with your first baby… you get this far and you really start to savor all those last times it’s just you and your husband…

and then! with your second baby… suddenly getting so close to birthin’ time has you realizing that each and every day won’t just be you and your firstborn!

i have totally been soaking up every last ounce of my little partner in crime for these past three years. it’s hard to believe she isn’t my tiny one anymore!! she’s this amazing almost three year old who suddenly knows how to tie a knot! by herself! in a blade of grass!

how does time go so fast?!

but! knowing how in love we are with maddalena makes us so thrilled to get to feel that way about someone else. to have another little wonderful person, a boy, here in our family of kooks! the best. and i am so so so excited for maddalena to have a sibling. for her to be a big sister. she’s going to be the coolest, sassiest, snuggliest, most awesome big sister, mini-mommy ever ever.

so, the waiting game is on and we aaare excited. and a little antsy. but… i’m kinda running out of belly space here, right! so, come on little bunny! there’s lots of fun to be had in the oxygenated part of the world, i promise! 😉

    You look amazing mama! I can't believe you're so close! And trust that I am getting nostalgic and a little weepy every day thinking my first baby isn't going to be the only and littlest for much longer around here. And wow to the tying a knot! Will have to teach K that soon!

    Looking wonderful! Before you know it! I remember feeling similarly when we had David… Letty had our whole hearts and all our attention and then at no fault of her own she has to share. Rough.

    I meant rough on me. Kids are totally fine. I played it up in my head and didn't need to be.
