6 More Weeks!!!

I am in the middle of my 33rd week of this very last pregnancy, and Little Sarah can't get here fast enough. She's been beating me from the inside out nearly to the point of being sick. She's my most active baby yet! From time to time, I get curious about my current state of mind, physical feelings, etc during Emmy's pregnancy, so I took a peek at Week 33. Here's a little tidbit:

It's coming down to the wire. I feel excitement as well as the unknown when it comes down to it. I was sitting in the chair last night (the only chair that I can sit in comfortably in the entire house), and I was looking around at our house. We are about to stuff 6 people into out little 1200 square foot house. Hmm..this ought to be interesting!

More importantly than where we are going to all fit is the fact that our family will never be the same once Emily is born. Last night, it hit me that Sammy is no longer going to be the baby, Rachel will have a sister, and I will have 4 kids! Of course, there were several hundred more things that went through my mind at that moment as well, but I could never write them all down.

No matter how you look at it, this is what is ultimately true.

Our family is SO special to me. Everything about them makes me smile from Cody's 15 year old humor that never ceases to amaze me or Rachel's desire to be a grown up so bad it hurts to Sam's incessant talk of race cars or big trucks as we drive down the interstate. I can only imagine how adding yet another Corley to this "Clan" will enrich our lives.

It really is amazing how different Little Emmy's arrival has afftected our family. I can't wait for Sarah to get here! Here we are, about to stuff 7 people in our little 1200 square foot house. We will have 5 kids, and never a dull moment! Cody still has his humor (except that he's 16 now), Rachel is pretty sure that she's already a grown up, and Sam still talks...a lot...but has a much more extensive vocabulary. Emmy is just starting to walk, talk, and really show her personality.

The Corley Clan will be complete once Miss Sarah makes her arrival (except for a dog), and I can't wait to see where God leads us on our adventure in life!
