I love being pregnant and having babies. I love the nervous feeling I get while waiting for the test to show up. I love seeing those 2 pink lines. I love telling the kids that we're having another (they ask me constantly if/when we're going to get another baby). I love maternity clothes. I love using that silly pillow at Motherhood. I love that cute baby belly, too. I love feeling baby move. I love OB appointments. I love hearing the heartbeat with the doppler. I love counting the weeks. I love that 20 weeks ultrasound and finding out if the baby is a girl or a boy. I love lying on the couch at night and my husband understanding that I'm tired. I love shopping for the little one. I love getting out hand me downs from older siblings and remembering who wore them, where we lived and what our life was like then. I love folding everything and putting it in drawers and organizing diapers. I love itty bitty newborn cloth dipers. I love going to the hospital with my husband alone. I love holding my precious baby for the first time. I love sitting in the hospital in the quiet for 2 days with just my baby and maybe my hubby. I love nursing him/her. I love watching them curl their beautiful tiny hands around my finger. I love seeing their little mouth yawn.
What a blessing my God has given me to be able to be a part of this miracle FOUR times. I am in awe. To God be the glory.

Amen! I'm not sure I have much to add, you've covered just about everything I love too. I could repeat everything though :D I love seeing those 2 lines too, and realizing our life is going to change in amazing and wonderful ways. I love having that secret, that I am carrying a new life. I love being the recipient of God's intimate work within me. I love feeling extra feminine. I love having my husband treasure me and our baby. I love feeling the baby move, finding out if it is a boy or girl, thinking about names, dreaming of what the baby will look like and sound like and feel like in my arms. I love thinking about the birth, and holding the baby for the first time. I've loved the alone time my husband and I have in the hospital with the baby. I love having a tiny, new, innocent and vulnerable person to love and care for. I love just about everything. :)
