Well this morning I officially left my ring to rest. My fingers are little fat pigs! My ring finger was so swollen and I pushed and tugged and tried so hard to get it to fit grunting away like I was already in labor at 6:45 AM. Until my husband said in his sleeping slumber, "Karla don't force it on." He was still in bed and could see my efforts with one eye open. I listened to his advice as always and left it in its pretty red box. I miss it so much today! The only good thing is I don't have to squeeze it off to put lotion on anymore at work. So my hands are extra moisturized today, I guess I'm making the most of this fat finger syndrome, life could be worse! Tomorrow will mark my 34 week mark, leaving only 6 weeks give/take before baby bee gets here!
I need to make some lists & goals to get myself feeling better about being ready for this big day:
• Baby necessities
• Mommy necessities
• Put car seat in car
• Put together pack n play bassenet
• Clean the house
• Pack hospital bag
• Plan a date night
I remember growing up on a farm and every evening my mom had a meal on the table for the family. We sat, we prayed, we ate, and we were a family. Are you trying to become a better mom by having an evening meal on the table? I have some simple ideas for planning, budgeting, and having a meal every evening on the table.

Lil Honeybees
This is my first blog post. I was inspired by a couple friends, and love to journal so what better way to document my journey as a mother to be and wife. I titled my blog, "My Lil Honeybees" because I love to use that in reference to regards to anything I love that is adorable, cute, and sweet! A large part of that sweetness I owe to my loving and wonderful husband "B"and our lil honeybee on the way. We can't wait to start the next journey of our life as parents. We are due with our first baby in 7 weeks. I feel it has brought our relationship to a different level of love, respect, and commitment. I see his excitement for this new baby and it makes my heart smile. The journey so far has been incredible and I have loved every second of being pregnant. I'm 33 weeks along and we are waiting to find out the sex. Everyday I get more and more ready to meet our lil honeybee and hold him/her for the first time and see the precious little face we created. The miracle of life is so amazing and I can't wait to learn what its like to become a mother.
