Parenthood came knocking at our door 7 months ago. More recently it's been hanging out at our apartment, taking over bookshelves, manifesting itself in my closet, taking precedent of the weekend, inching into our checkbook, and many far more invasive procedures! Not more than 47 days from now it will become a permanent dweller in the Leman household and will forever be one of us...and we feel like we're just getting to know it!
Yet, as the spring flowers begin blooming on the trees so Rachel is in full bloom! Now we can see footprints when Baby kicks, yes footprints. I keep saying soccer player, Rachel keeps saying swimmer, we'll see... Both mommy and baby are doing well, daddy is the one to be concerned about, he's just generally a wreck. 47 doesn't seem like enough time, but it just so happens to be the perfect amount because that's all we get. Up next: a hospital tour, moving to a new apartment unit down the hall, lots of reading (all in English though), and frank discussions about what color to paint the "baby room". Thanks for your love and support, we're so glad to have many friends praying for us these days as we continue our preparation and now begin a family.
