15 Weeks

I don't really have too much to blog about today. Things are moving along as expected. As of today, I'm 15 weeks and according to babycenter.com the baby is about the size of an apple.

This past week was a bit tough on Chris as he lost his grandmother on his mom's side. She lived a good life and I can only hope that I live as long as she did. Although I didn't know her when she was in her prime, I will be forever impacted by her. You could truly tell how much she loved Chris and she would smile and light up everytime he walked into the room. I love that she loved him so much.

The death of his grandmother reminded me a lot of my mom's passing. I wanted so much for her to meet her grandaughter or grandson. She loved babies and I know she would have spoiled this child more than anyone. I've decided to make a book on Shutterfly about her and have it in the nursery. I don't want our child to grow up not knowing her. It's hard to look back on the past 2 years - we've had so many blessings and so much heartbreak. I know that everything has made us stronger.

Well, enough about that - my emotions are crazy these days and I'm sitting here in tears!

Megan,

I'm so sorry to hear about Chris's grandmother. Losing someone is so hard. I love your book idea. Your little apple is very lucky to have you guys for parents. So thoughtful!
Keeping you guys in my thoughts and prayers!!
