6 more days....

Only six more days until baby number 2 comes.... I can't believe it's already time! I've already packed up the maternity clothes I borrowed from a friend and am just wearing my same few shirts over and over again. My hospital bag is mostly packed. The car seat is in the car. The crib is set up and the clothes are in the drawers. I still need to mop my kitchen floor. But maybe the baby won't notice all of Ian's food spilled on it...I have one more doctors appointment today before the big day on Monday. My biggest worries are my recovery and hoping Ian adjusts well to being a big brother.

March already!

So February disappeared, I'm not sure where it went or what I was doing during that whole month! I have composed in my head tons of different blogs since my last one in January, and each one was interesting, witty, and sure to grab at least 20 comments each. But somehow for whatever reason none of them ever got written. I was going to blog about my neighbor commenting on our living room photos that I've aged a lot and Mike hasn't changed. That was a sad story. I was going to blog about our potty training successes with Ian, he's such a great kid. There was always a good pregnancy/getting ready for baby number two blog to write. And maybe if I stretched it, I could find something interesting to say about doing our taxes. But instead, I decided to just post my usual cute pictures of Ian. He loves to have his picture taken when his mouth is full of grapes. He also loves to help out in the kitchen. One day I couldn't get him to get off the potty, he had been sitting on it for over an hour and I thought that was more than enough time! So I started making juice and he jumped up and ran to come help me. So now I use cooking or helping in the kitchen as bribery. It works better than candy!
