1 more week! We will finally meet little miss next Week! This is going to be one of the longest weeks of my life…I better think of things to keep me busy. The majority of stuff for her is done, we are just playing the waiting game now. The car seat base is installed in my car, her room is done (I promise I’ll post pictures of her nursery soon), bottles and such are put away in the kitchen, the only thing left to do is wash one more load of clothes for her and put them away. We are having our carpets cleaned tomorrow – you know, so we can get them ready for another baby to spit up on!
The boys keep talking about “Baby …” and know that all the baby stuff we have is for her. I know they really don’t know whats about to happen, but hopefully it won’t be horribly rude awakening when she comes home. We , or should I say I, keep going back and forth on when we will let them meet her for the first time. I said I didn’t want them to meet her until the next day because I will be just out of surgery, still groggy and half asleep with an IV and can’t move from the waist down. But we also want them to be the first ones to meet her…..its a huge dilemma and I have no clue what we’ll do. I just say we’ll see how I feel the day she is born and go from there.
I have been off work since last Tuesday and have had a lot of help from Jonathan, my mom and Jonathan’s mom. I definitely don’t need to be alone with the boys by myself all day long. I am trying to rest as much as possible but it is kind of hard when you have two 2 year olds in the house. Jonathan has been on dad duty every saturday and sunday morning for the last several weeks and I can’t thank him enough for letting me sleep in, or at least try to, while he takes the boys to the park, to get donuts, etc. He has done a great job with them and the boys love their time spent with dad!
Here is one of the last surveys I’ll do!
