MATTHEW'S HOME!!!!

For all those checking this blog and haven't heard....

HE'S HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, my prince has come home safely and has been home now for a couple of days! He arrived Thursday at 5AM to my LONG awaiting arms! What a joy it was to see each other! His face just LIT UP when he saw me and my belly and ever since just CAN'T keep his hands off of it! He loves feeling her move around and taps on my belly because he likes to feel her jump! She is already responding to his voice and he talks to her ALL the time, I think he is just making up for all that lost time! The puppies went CRAZY when he got home and as soon as he let them out, they went NUTS with him! What a joy it is to have our family back together!!!!

Today we are just relaxing and cleaning the apartment up from all the gear he brought home (it's everywhere!). We are also going to take the doggies to the park to throw the ball around and get some of their energy out! My labor and delivery bags are all packed so now we are just waiting although I think we still have a few days which is wonderful! But, we will see! Who knows! Everytime I have a contraction or I worry that I may be in labor, Matthew gets SO excited and says he is VERY ready for her to come out! I think he cannot wait to hold her like I have been holding her these last nine months!! As of today I am 37 weeks and 5 days, so almost 38 weeks! She could come ANY time now, but I would still love a couple more weeks with just Matthew, but who knows!!

Anyway, Matthew is making his hashbrown scramble for breakfast and the bacon smells SOOO good!! I better go help if he lets me!!

To Kristin and Brian.....I miss you guys SO very much! Thank you again for all you have done, Matthew and I are SO greatful to have family like you. You are SUCH an example of true love and giving unconditionally! We love you and cannot wait to see you soon!!!

Thank you to everyone for your thoughts, prayers, love and support! Our family is back together safely and about to expand even more!! What a joy our life is once again!!

Love to all from both Matthew and I!
