Glowing

"They" talk about a pregnancy glow and for the first time I think I actually understand what it feels like to be glowing.
I am happy today. I couldn't be more content (well aside from winning the lottery - which is still possible).
I know I've been blessed in my pregnancy thus far. Nausea here and there but no actual puking *knocks on wood*. Fatigue but nothing I couldn't nap away.
Today I feel great. Up early, getting lots of stuff done... and all the while glowing.
Today is the first day in a while where I don't feel utterly fat but instead my belly is high (as per normal) and front and centre. I feel and look pregnant. This makes me happy.
Brent is dutifully working on baby B's nursery, the sun in shining.... and besides that little mouse that we have yet to catch (evasive little bugger he is) life is good.
Perhaps it's the hormones, the coffee I had this morning (I know, shame on me, but it was a little one) or maybe the fact that there's a little baby in here is FINALLY kicking in. I'm happy and I'm soooo thankful.
Sure, there's lots of stuff to worry and be anxious about (i.e. anatomy u/s coming Tues!!) but today I feel positive, excited and grateful.
On that note I'm going to go clean the house and get ready for x-mas (yes, it's early, but I like to enjoy the decorations as long as I can!)... AND I'm not even dreading cleaning (making me somewhat inclined to think this is a surge of hormones haha).
