The A-Z of Pregnancy: the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly.

Sara, this is in response to your alphabet posting... and to being tagged! I just got excited about the idea and went crazy with it.
Here is the best (and goofiest) of this pregnancy so far.

A-absolutely everything baby jungle for the nursery.
b-books on pregnancy, breastfeeding, swaddling, baby everything... I'm overstimulated!
c-cravings for candy (sour patch kids, fruit snacks, sour sprees) shockingly, not chocolate these days!
D-decorating the baby's room... a little intimidating! And my new digital camera: thanks Mom and Dad!
e-I have an ear infection which has temporarily made me deaf in my right ear, and I'm suffering from exhaustion!
f-I love football season! And I'm in love with baby feet.
G-God has been so gracious to me! He allowed both Brent and I to grow up in Christian homes, and our parents are still happily married. Most important, He gave His son Jesus to save us, and to give us an abundant life!
H-Henry is my joy!
i-my feet are always ice-cold! This has been a really chilly winter!
J-Jesus is my hope for Henry's future. I spend a lot of time praying that he will come to know the Lord early in life. That I'll be up to the task of teaching him about his Savior!
k-kisses from my terrific hubby!
L-laundry has already exploded on me! Lucky for me, Brent has really been pitching in.
m-Magnum and Diesel- our two sweet hound doggies are always making me smile!
n-nesting... need I say more?
O-Oh how I miss my Kelly! My youngest sister is on her internship in D.C. and I'm very proud of her... but I miss her.
p-I praise the Lord every day for Brent and Henry. Pregnancy back pain has been kicking my butt lately though...
q-quickening is wonderful! Feeling Henry move is so intensely intimate between just the two of us! (He hasn't kicked hard enough yet for Brent to feel him.)
R-rest... I need so much more now!
S-scrap booking is one of my very favorite pastimes!
t-I just can't get used to how fast I tire out! Especially when teaching the two-year-olds in children's church!
u-ultrasounds are my new favorite thing!
V-have I mentioned how very achy I've been?
w-work has been stressful, but good. I have received kudos lately for a job well done, but I'm also wondering if God has a plan for me to be able to stay home after Henry is born.
x-This is so x-pensive!
y-yucky smells really get to me!
Z-I can't believe how fast I'm zipping through this pregnancy!
