Dustin and I went for our ultrasound today and got to see our little son again. He is so cute! And he's not so little! He weighs 7 lb. 6 oz. already and I technically have 4 weeks to go! Wow! However, my Dr. is going to induce me on Feb. 13 if I don't go into labor myself before then. So.....three weeks from today I will be a new mommy all over again! :-) I'm really excited to have a date and hopefully can finish preparing everything. I already added some 0-3 month clothes to my hospital "pile" in case he won't fit in the newborn stuff. Hopefully the pile can make it into a bag, and I can get the carseat in the car, D can finish the crib, etc.etc.etc. I am excited it's finally here and ready to meet my little man!
A sleeping update- Emilynn did great last night, she went to sleep without incident. I got up really early today and waited and waited, thinking she'd be up with the sun since she ripped the shades down in their room when she got up on her own the other day. I finally fell back asleep and when I re-awoke, she was up. She was just playing in their room with the Little People farm set. Today she actually took a nap without protest (a shocker!!!) and has gone to bed. So, I'm hoping it won't be too bad. I'm sure there will be days where it is crazy but we are taking it nap by nap, bedtime by bedtime.
My mom says she's getting her a toddler bed, so we'll see what happens with that.
Dustin and I got a much needed supper out tonight, that was nice. I completely stuffed myself and had leftovers for lunch tomorrow.....yum!!! :-)
Today Carson and I went to get milk and as we were leaving a man stopped me asking for directions. Where did he need to go???? The courthouse! Of all places. I thought I was done giving directions to there when I quit working 2 years ago. I never liked giving directions because I always felt like I wasn't very good at it. It was very foggy today so who knows if he ever made it. He was on our road, which is rural.....not sure why he left the main highway but he didn't want to go back when I suggested it. It was interesting. Just a random bit of knowledge I thought I'd share. Kind of ironic. :-) Yes, I guess I still can give directions to the courthouse I realized.
Well, I'm off to watch one of Dustin & my favorite shows....Lizard Lick Towing. :-) Then it's read and bed......Nothing planned the rest of the week, although I think we are going to have lunch with JuJu and Amanda one day since we missed today. Guess I need to finalize my baby preparations while I can and catch up on all the laundry, etc. while I can. When the twins were born unexpectedly early, my Dad and step-mom were so kind to do all of our laundry, dishes, grocery shopping, cleaning, etc. for us. It took us literally 2 years to sort the laundry back out. I'm not kidding, Meme had some of my maternity pants that I asked about this time when I realized I was pregnant, from 2 years ago. They were in her closet and she didn't know it. Dad wore Dustin's work pants to work which were way too big for him, we have socks no one from either house claims, it was a mess! But oh, so helpful. Meme has asked that I please, please get the laundry caught up this time!!!!! :)
