Waiting...

 We're ready...
...and waiting...

We just need a baby!

With my due date only 11 days away, Tim and I (along with just about everyone else we know) are anxiously waiting for our little one to make their debut. We have had baby clothes, gear, diapers, blankets, toys etc. in our apartment for months, but they are now all washed, assembled, organized, and put away. We have read baby name books and taken suggestions for 38 weeks, but now have it narrowed down to just two (wouldn't you like to know what they are? :) ). We have wondered for almost 9 months if we are going to have a son or a daughter. And now we (not so)patiently wait for the moment when we get to use the clothes, diapers, carseat, and name on our son or daughter.

Sometimes it feels as if we've been waiting forever and other times it seems as if we just found out we were to be a family of three. Tim and I are excited to be parents, but also humbled by the fact that God has blessed us with a life to nurture and teach to love Him. It is a huge responsibility and a great blessing that we can hardly wrap our minds around. But we pray each day that He will guide us and teach us how along the way.

Now we just need our baby!
