One day at a time...

...That is how I have to approach each day I wake up to. If I do that, I can say to myself "I can't believe it is already July! Where did June go?" That is a good feeling, the feeling that the time you spend away from your love is going by quickly. Usually, time separated drags by, seeming to never end. It is weird though, since I have been pregnant, time has been flying and I am torn between wanting time to slow down a bit so that I can enjoy my pregnancy some more and wanting time to hurry up so I can see Jared again. So, at this point all I can do is enjoy each day as it comes, marvel in the miracle that is taking place within my own body, thank God every day for the blessings He has bestowed upon me and choose to be happy. So, here are a few pictures from the July 4th weekend and an updated belly pic.

This is part of the Boston skyline. It was also our view from the side of the river where we sat for the day, waiting for the fireworks to start. We were directly across the river from the barge that set the fireworks off.



Beth and Nilima were my roommates during our master's year at Trinity. It was wonderful to see them again, it had been too long!



The Boston fireworks show was amazing! I couldn't wipe the smile off my face watching them. The only thing that would have made that moment perfect is if Jared was sitting next to me.



So, my "end of the month" pictures usually end up being "beginning of the next month" pictures...allhora! I am 31 weeks 3 days in these next two photos. People, absolute strangers, keep telling me how big they think I am, especially with 2 months left to go. Really I am not sure what they are talking about...You can hardly see my belly! HA! (*if you aren't picking up on my sarcasm, reread this paragraph with all the sarcasm you can muster!*)
