Just thinking...

Well, Miller baby is going to be 24 weeks old tomorrow morning. She is big, and moves all the time, especially when her daddy is nearby. She hears his voice and her little legs start running and her arms start to pound as if she wants to get out SO bad to play with him!
I feel her growing and moving, and its amazing to me that she's learning her motor skills right now, trying them out on mommys insides!
Today ive been thinking about getting to meet her, and honestly trying my hardest not to wish time away too quickly. Im enjoying being the one to care for her and with her constantly, but i so desperately wish to meet her. My coworker Sarah had her baby this morning, 9 ibs 2 ounces! I cant even believe she gave natural birth to that big of a baby! Gracie is doing great and so is Sarah, exhausted however after being up all night.
Its been such a weird pregnancy watching someone just a few steps ahead of me in her pregnancy. She was bigger, she wasnt sick, she had her shower, all of her biweekly appointments, when Gracie finally flipped over, and this whole time ive been 3 months behind, just watching and knowing sometime soon ill go through it, but man it seems like forever.
I guess im still not big enough to be too noticed, maybe people are being cautious, or honestly dont notice. My belly is getting big, and sticks out in front of me like a little round muffin top :) but its going to take people even longer to notice, which is just fine with me. Eventually they'll get it, and ill be 8 months along, and suddenly im on maternity leave and no one even knew :) Its like the best kept secret!
Our little girl is so precious, ive been dreaming about her constantly, and she is beautiful in my dreams, and it just makes me SO anxious to meet her.
I remember when we found out i was 6 weeks along, and now here i am at 24! So its already been flying along SO fast! I only have 16 weeks left until my due date, isnt that crazy! In just a few weeks we'll be bringing home our little baby, and everyone will be sitting by the phone waiting to hear how big she was, how long she was, what color hair she has, and who she looks like!
What an amazing and miraculous process this is!
