One Week and Counting


So here I am one week from my due date and everyone wants to know how I am feeling. Well... I am feeling a lot of things right now. Tired being one of them. I finally reached the point where I am just plain DONE being pregnant. Not that I have not loved this stage, but there comes a point where the curtains need to close and the play should be over. The only problem is, I don't have any control over the director of the play to tell him to end the show. But I am keeping a good attitude and staying positive. Hopefully my good attitude will show Heavenly Father that I am ready for the prize at the end of pregnancy... the baby of course.
Adam is being so patient. I keep telling the baby to come out and he just says... "He will when he's ready". I think he just wants to enjoy what little time he has left to sleep through the night. Which I guess is fine. I mean I like the whole sleeping through the night thing too... oh wait I don't sleep through the night. (I have to get up too much to visit the ol' Jon Jon.)
But really. I think I am just emotionally ready to be the mom and to see my cute little Kevin and to see how Adam reacts to it all. I want to hug this baby and show him how much I already love him. I know that my love for him will only grow stronger when I finally get to meet him.
Well that's pretty much it for now. I will keep everyone posted.
Luv ya'll

The Baby's Room




So we've pretty much finished the baby's room. Doesn't it look nice.
The rocking chair you see was Adam's mother's. It's a perfect place to sit and we feel grateful to have it for a while. We've had the changing table up for about 3 weeks, and we were just waiting for the crib to arrive (it came the same time the changing table came but it was broken). So when it came Adam put his effort to it and got it set up Friday night. Then Yesterday (saturday) I spent the whole day painting and washing clothes. I painted the star you see hanging up above the crib (it was brown) and the shelf (which was also brown) and the little corkboard/picture frame coat rack thing (which was a light blue). . Adam hung it all today so it looks pretty official. Next I plan on putting Kevin's name above the crib in block letters.
We washed all of Kevin's clothes and put them away, then we put the bedding on the crib. For my baby shower in Cedar my friend Crystal gave me a Diaper cake (which is essentially layers and layers of daipers). They filled the whole top drawer of the changing table!! Too bad that will probably only last us two weeks. CRAZY!! OH well.
I am feeling pretty excited to finally have the room done and now all we need is baby Kevin.
