belly melts...

big belly...

march melt...

we are nearing the middle of march, and yes we still have a lot of snow... but, alas, the melt was here today as it rained yesterday and was sunny today... i think this will help all of our mental states... and it will hopefully make things easier for me, as walking any hilly area is quite treacherous for my now very big belly! i am definitely feeling the pregnancy now, as my belly has gotten quite a lot bigger and i am feeling baby moving lots... i went to the midwives on tuesday and the baby is in an ideal position, and everything else looks great too:)
i had written this letter to baby on monday...
dear phoenix,
i am at nine months with you in my tummy, yup, 36 weeks! I feel great, it doesn't seem real that i am about to bring you into this world, that i am about to have a baby, it will only be believable once it happens... there is no way to prepare for this. just know that you are brought into this world with great love. this world is a magical one. the earth and its immense beauty, the sky, the clouds, the trees, the rivers, the mountains...they are all so magical. i can't wait for you to see its beauty... i love you, and wish you all the love in the universe.
