It's Thanksgiving Monday today. I'm 37 weeks and two days pregnant and my SIL is 35 weeks and one day pregnant. All is well in my world!
1. Finally, I feel like I'm getting somewhere with the list of things we need/want to do before the baby comes. I had washed all the seat covers/bedding type stuff for the baby gear: the bassinet, the bouncer, and the swing. Today I wiped all of those actual apparatuses down and put the seat covers on them, so they are all ready to go. Jeff will be setting up the crib tomorrow and then we can hang a couple things on the walls and we're essentially ready to go in baby's room.
2. Carter was so interested in the baby stuff as I was putting it together and washing it down. His eyes lit up with everything as it was completed and he put his teddy bear in things and was covering him up. He would tell his dad that this is for the "bay." It was so sweet to watch and made me feel like he'll be so excited and interested when the actual "bay" comes home. I am worrying less and less about jealousy and am starting to think that he'll just be excited. I already know that he will get upset and concerned when the "bay" cries though. When other kids cry, he gets very worried. He's my sweet boy!
3. It's 10 p.m. and I'm sitting on the couch, typing this blog after a super productive day. I have Dancing with the Stars on for mildly entertaining background noise, a small cookie dough blizzard from DQ, and a candle burning. I'm going to relax in front of the tv for a bit before waddling my pregnant ass to bed. Jeff is downstairs, watching a movie in the theatre room with brother Curtis. He's been going non-stop, so I'm glad that Curtis said he wanted to make it a movie night. It forced Jeff to take a break and do something he enjoys. All of these things make my soul happy.
