I was doing some reflecting the other night that I thought would be fun to share. The past 6 years have been full of changes, joys and challenges. With my miserable memory these days, I thought it would be fun to share some of the information I gathered. I will most likely forget these details so if it's on the blog, I can recall it much easier in the future if needed.
So, here it goes...
In the past 6 years (from July 2011 to July 2017), I've:
...been pregnant for 36 months, that's 3 years out of 6!
...given birth to 4 children 18, 20 and 16 months apart.
...had only 4 months in which I wasn't either pregnant or nursing a baby.
...nursed a total of 36 months, again that's 3 years out of 6!
...gained and lost a total of 150 pounds.
...had 4 AMAZING epidurals.
...had 4 healthy deliveries and recoveries, with a few rough patches along the way.
...had 4 hospital stays, each 2-3 days in length.
...had roughly 50 OB visits.
...changed TOO many diapers to count. I tried to get a rough estimation but it was too difficult to calculate. And we're still changing about 6 per day.
...through the grace of God, brought 80 fingers and toes into our home!
It is quite something to look back over the past 6 years. So much beautiful change in our lives. God is so good in bringing us through all the joys and challenges that these changes brought and we give Him all the praise and glory for what He has done to grow our family. We look forward to see what else He has in store for our brood in the future. :-)
