Ah, the waiting

We have already been through month 1 of the wait and are quickly approaching month 2. Time is going rather quickly these days but I attribute that to spending my days chasing an 18 month old around the house. Time sure flies when you have a child. There are just not enough hours in the day and too many precious moments you don't want to miss. Right now I can't even imagine having 2. Some days I think we are crazy, life is perfect just the way it is, why would we change that. Then I look around and feel like something is missing, feel like Eli would miss out if he didn't have a sibling, feel like our family is not complete yet. I can't wait to bring home baby #2. I am so very afraid of the enourmous change it will bring to our lives but also very excited.
