There is nothing like watching the faces of friends when they get kicked by our baby. And the increasing reality of the &#8220;countdown&#8221; being more and more in our favor when it comes to a potential birthday of this little one is quite fun. Part of me anxiously awaits the joy of being able to hold and see our baby, but the other part of me really enjoys the time that I get to spend right now, holding our baby. I often wonder who he\/she will look like, what their personality will be like, and what it will feel like to live the normal day in and day out (my favorite part of doing life with Matt) with a little one. Thinking of the joy of being a mom and watching my mom&#8217;s eyes light up at the thought of being a grandma and watching Matt&#8217;s elated joy as he gets kicked makes me want to snuggle our baby.<\/p>\n<p>God has so blessed us by this little life and they aren&#8217;t even &#8220;here&#8221; yet.
