I feel like we slowed way down over here at the Armstrong household the last few weeks and wow we needed it! I stepped back a little from the business side of things, we said no to outside plans and yes to what we needed as a family, cuddled our little guy a little longer and took sometime to prepare our home and hearts for our little one! So so good!
We are now very much on baby watch over here! 39 weeks and 3 days! As well as celebrating 19 months of Max in our lives. He greeted us this morning with an unexpected stomach bug (I guess those are always unexpected 🙈) but he seems to be on his way to being his bright energetic self again - Making sure momma gets snacks, water and lots of time outside. It’s rather surreal to be adding another human life into our family after being so consumed by one little life for so long, but we couldn’t be more excited to know this little one and see Max be a big brother! He’s been practicing diaper changes on his duck so baby is in good hands 🤞🏻😉
I’ve been reflecting a lot on what a gift it is to be a mom, it’s never a guaranteed thing and pregnancy and birthing is one of the hardest things my body and mind have yet to endure. But so intentionally the Father knit me to be a mom, more specifically their momma. To love them and raise them and show them back to the Father’s house. The world today brings me anxiety and I find myself asking God often about his plan and how to bring up these babes in this crazy world but I’m always reminded that he’s going before me always. No matter the situation he’s preparing a way. To not lose sight of him and he will guide me across the waves.
Please pray for us as we anticipate bringing this precious life into the world and please send me your prayer intentions to lift up while in labor! It’s an honor to carry them in my heart.
Grateful for these family photos from to document this season of our growing family!
