48 weeks

It is amazing how time can fly in some parts of your life and feel as if it creeps along in others. Tomorrow our little man will be 48 weeks old, just 4 short weeks away from being 1 year old. I can't believe how quickly the past year has gone by - how much he changes on a daily basis and how much we, as a family, have grown.

That being said I must think back to where we were around this time last year....38 weeks pregnant and anxiously awaiting the arrival of our baby. It felt as if the weeks creeped along from about 36 weeks on. Perhaps it was the insomnia, the excitement (and nerves) that grew with each day as we got closer to welcoming our baby or just being fed up with the recurring "You're still pregnant" comment. Gordon (although last year we didn't know whether we would be welcoming a boy or a girl) was 11 days late - so I got that comment daily for about three weeks - well it felt like I got it daily at least. Whatever it was, it felt like that day would never arrive (perhaps more so during the sleepless nights) but here we are almost a year later and I am sitting here wondering where did it all go....
