Little Buddy

March 25th is growing closer each day, and I am getting more and more excited about seeing my little baby girl. I have all my 0-3 month clothes out and clean, I've bought a nice soft blanket to cuddle her while nursing, I'm ready to get the crib up, I find myself daydreaming about what this little girl will look like, and I am starting to seriously think about names. But in all this excitement, I can't help but feel a little sad about Bridger Boy not being my one and only. I know it will be wonderful to have another little person around to love, teach, and see grow up, but I will miss the special times that Bridger and I have spent together. We've had so much fun together on our many road trips, we've played together for hours and hours, I've spent days (and nights) of my life devoted to him, we've read book after book after book together...and it's hard to imagine it any other way. So here's to my boy, my little Bridger Boy, I love you sweet heart, thank you for all you've given me. We've got quite the adventure ahead of us...and you are going to be a great big brother, I just know it!!

I know right now it seems impossible to get to have those moments alone with him. Trust me though you will find them and you will treasure them even more. I worried about the same thing with Trevor but I think we have an awesome relationship. Only the kind a mommy and her oldest could have.

That is so sweet Anne and he will remember all of your Mommy and Me times. I too felt the same way with Brax. Especially cuz he was four by the time she came. But it just becomes your new norm and you can't imagine feeling more complete. We are sure that we are done now but sometimes I would think I can't imagine another one under Boo cuz she will always be my baby and Brax my first. Two very special things. I can't wait to meet her. You are always in my thoughts!

I remember leaning over my babies cribs and crying because they wouldn't be the baby soon..... and then my next little girl would come and my heart grew bigger with each one! I was in LABOR with my youngest and had to stop pushing for a secong to say..... "hold on, I'm really going to have 4 girls in just a minute"....!WOW You're an awesome mommy and your kids are lucky!

Since I only have one it's hard for me to imagine it any other way, although I wish it was different. I just know that Mom's hearts are able to grow and grow and love all their kids equally. It's an amazing gift from our Heavenly Father. I'm so happy for you and your new adventure coming up so quickly. Love and miss you.

Anne-
you are the sweetest little Mom! Bridger is so lucky to have you-- and you are so lucky to have him! Your new little one will add a new dynamic to your life & family and very soon you will wonder how you ever got along without them both! You are right these last few weeks with just you and your boy are special, but the Lord provides you with those moments to affirm and cherish your children individually in the future too. Bridger will be an awesome big brother and you will be a fantastic mother of two!!! Sooooo excited for you!

Such a cute post Anne. It really brought back a lot of memories for me before Maggers was born. I remember feeling those exact feelings. My heart ached for my little B. I cuddled him a little extra and made sure I told him how much I loved him. Time flies and I can't imagine life without either of my beautiful children. Good luck and I can't wait to see pics of your sweet little girl.

There are moms and there are AMAZING moms and I will always think of you as one of those AMAZING moms! Bridger and this little girlie are so blessed to have you as their mom and I know you will teach them many important lessons throughout their lives!! Bridger boy will remember his mommy and me moments and will be a GREAT big brother! We love and can't wait any longer to meet the newest member of the Kaiser/Prescott Fam!! Love ya lots!

Once you have two, you'll never want to go back (except when you want to take a nap...) but seriously, seeing your child become a sibling and feeling the love in your home double is so neat. And you get to go through all the darling baby stages again and remember "when Bridger did that". I am excited to hear how things go for you guys. I miss hanging out!

You are too cute. Rhett has a box of clothes and other baby stuff for you and I have another here in UT with me. Once he comes back down next week I'll have him drop them off at your house. Bentley is growing so fast that she isn't staying in anything for too long. If you don't want it let me know and I'll give it to a donation center or something. Miss yoU!
