30 Days

Today is exactly one month from my due date! I am of course, hoping he comes a little sooner than that. Two weeks early would be nice!

Friday night we went to Toys R Us to buy the stroller we wanted. I did some serious research to find out which strollers had the best reviews for the price. We went to check it out and you should have seen us trying to figure the thing out! It was hilarious! We had no idea what we were doing. After about ten minutes we finally figured out how to collapse the stroller and how to (what is that called) “pop” it back up. We decided to go ahead and get it. We looked around a little bit more and found some gliders there. I really wanted to get a glider but they are so expensive! Even used gliders are expensive. I had pretty much settled in my mind that I would just get a regular rocking chair. Anyway, while we were at Toys R Us we saw they had two gliders. One (white wood and blue upholstery – it was ugly) had a clearance sticker on it. The other (dark wood with tan upholstery – it was beautiful) didn’t have any price on it. Danny asked someone and they said that both gliders were on clearance! Then they gave us coupons, discounts, etc. and by the time all those deductions were made on both the stroller and the glider, we left paying only what the stroller cost. It was like getting the glider for free! We were so excited! It looks great in his room. I can’t wait to use it.

Saturday Danny was helping move someone and so I cleaned out Dallas’ room and started washing his clothes. I can only imagine how long it’s going to take to fold all that little stuff! I also have to figure out how to organize it all in the closet. To be honest, I’m looking forward to it.

Shanen had her baby at 1am-ish on Saturday morning so we went to the hospital to see him. He is adorable. She is doing well and is in great spirits. It made me more anxious to have Dallas. I can’t wait to see who he is. To see what he looks like and to get to know his personality. With every day I am more and more ready! Next week will be 37 weeks, once I reach that I’m praying he comes!

Wow. God is truly amazing. His blessings are unbelievable. His love is astounding. He is perfect. I would love to know why He loves us so much. Every single day He reminds me of His love and compassion for me. That He recognizes my desire and is working it out. He has done so much and I have never had faith like this in my entire life!

I don’t know why Jesus’ loves me
I don’t know why he cares
I don’t know why he sacrificed His life
Oh, but I’m glad
So glad He did
