32 Weeks at the Kadena Marina

 8 months pregnant!!

We’ve been thinking outloud more and more about what our little boy could be like and pray for certain things each day for him. I love hearing my husband’s hopes for him.  Some of the biggest? That he’ll be so strong, love Jesus above all, be sweet, gentle, and love and adore his future wife. That he’ll learn how to treat women with respect the way Christ did and love the way He does. A heart like that inside of an incredibly strong man sounds verrryy familiar to me! If our son gets any of his daddy in him I will be thrilled. 

{thank you so much, Kenz for taking these and giving my husband a break}

    gorgeous. i have no words. you make pregnancy look good girl 🙂

    i remember being startled about my appearance when i started getting big. like that person in the mirror wasn't me. now that i'm back to my normal figure, it seems like a dream that i ever had a belly.

    love that belly as much as you can. you'll miss the little kicks when they're gone. but believe me, THE BEST IS YET TO COME!!!!!

    and now i have tears just remembering how precious jake's birth is. i could not be more excited and grateful that you get to experience this as well!

      THANK YOU FRIEND!! Its hard to believe little Jake is already as big as he is. I feel like it was just yesterday that I was following all of your photos as your belly grew. Thanks for sharing in our excitement, and again for the precious gift — his little hoodie towels are already hanging in his room!

    🙂 LOVELY as always sweet friend!! 🙂 What a beautiful thing to be praying for your lovely son starting now! I know my parents prayed for me (and each of my siblings) starting when we were in the womb and it is amazing to hear how some of those prayers have been answered! TRULY the Lord is faithful to answer the prayers that we lay at His feet!!

    8 Months … YEA!! Almost time to meet your son!
    🙂 Rebecca

    I was thinking as I read through your description that you may be describing your husband! 🙂 You are looking radiantly beautiful, Amanda – one month to go!!

    You look amazing. And I know if you or Cam have anything to do with raising your son he will be a wonderful, God-loving person, who will treat people with love and respect.

    You look simply radiant and I am pretty sure that you as his mom and Cam as his dad your son will be a mighty man of God!!

    Your blog is such a joy to read! Seeing soon-to-be parents pray over their child is a huge encouragement…keep on praying for your little man. I know that your son will grow to be a strong man who loves fiercely. 🙂

    You're stunning!
