Last night before Mommyhood...

I am sitting here at our kitchen table on the night before Avery's birthday just thinking about how lucky I am. I honestly feel like I am in a dream. I feel like my life right at this very second is way too good to be true. I am so thankful to God for allowing Michael & I to have so much. We love eachother more than we ever have and that in itself makes Avery such a lucky little guy. I KNOW that we will do everything in our power to give him a great life...I have no doubts.

Today I had this huge urge to have everything perfect for when Avery arrives home. Not that he will be able to realize any of it but still. So Michael and I spent the day cleaning house and setting up last minute baby things for him. The only thing we are lacking is his stocking. But rest assured, it has been ordered and is on its way from the Pottery Barn warehouse as we speak. ;)

While I am terrified about the actual surgery, it really doesnt seem as scary now. Dr. Clark said that once she starts, she will can him in out in about 4 minutes. And once I hear his sweet cry I wont be able to focus on anything but him so the rest will be a breeze. I am hoping and praying that everything goes smoothly and that by 1:00pm tomorrow I will have a healthy little boy in my arms.

Well, Michael keeps telling me that I should at least try to get some sleep. So off to bed I go. My last night without my sweet boy. If my blog readers could send a few prayers up to the Big Guy tomorrow we would grately appreciate it.

XOXO!

Okay, so I posted a comment on Juli's blog since she put up pictures of little Avery. I HAD to come over here and tell you that he is such a beautiful baby boy! That picture of his little face makes me want to just love on those little hands/cheeks! Too precious. You must be one proud mama!
