3 and a 1/2 weeks. That may seem like a long time to some, but to me it's coming so quick! I think of the extended list I have to accomplish at work before maternity leave, the things around the house to still get done, and being a mother to two children! I am feeling pretty good, just always seem to be out of breath, dealing with my swollen feet, and popping tums for the constant heartburn! I have an ultrasound on Tuesday to check for size and I am pumped to see this baby again. I am feeling EXTREMELY huge and even some of my maternity clothes aren't fitting right anymore...ugh. I am almost done, I need to keep preaching that to myself!
The "baby's room" is ready as of last week. Since our basement isn't finished yet, the baby is bunking with Rick and I for about the first 2 months. This is no different then Kendall, she slept her first 8 weeks of life in our room also, but it's a struggle because we don't have an actual room for him yet. You know, somewhere to store all his clothes, blankets, etc. So I bought a few organizational things and we should be good to go. Clothes have been washed, bassinet is just about ready, and pacifiers/bottles are ready.
Last week we headed to GF for my Grandfather's funeral. It was great to see so much family again, but very hard to say goodbye to a man we all loved so much. He was a great man and impacted many many lives, and that was evident by the people who spoke of him and attended his funeral. To say I will miss him is such an understatement. I can still see him in my mind and can picture him talking and laughing. It's hard to realize I won't ever be able to talk with him agian, hear his stories, or give him a hug. My memories will always be with me and that makes me happy.
Here are some pics from the week and other random ones.
