Sweet Baby Boy

It's been seven months since I last posted...seven long months.  

I'll say now as I said then, pregancy is no easy road for me.  I've been down many emotional and physical roller coasters between my last post in October and today.  I must say my anxiety was especially intense with this most recent pregnancy.  There were some days--okay, actually, many days when I thought that I was absolutely insane for getting myself into the business of having a third child--and another MAN child at that!  These little guys are hooligans.  My two older little boys keep me hopping all day, every day, and seriously...I chose to throw another one of those little crazies into the mix?!  Yikes! 

On the last day of November I walked into my OB's office and had my 20-week ultrasound.  I also learned that Norris baby #3 was another boy that day.  

And I cried. 


It's too bad that I didn't see more of the full picture then.

Now, my heart is full.

Now, all the emotional anxieties and physical pain that had been my reality for nine months have been replaced by this:


Perfection.  

Literally Heaven on Earth. 

And I remember that it's all worth it.   

Welcome, sweet baby Matthew.
