Almost June
So I can't believe it is almost June!! I wish that this Memorial Weekend we could go somewhere, but with the baby so close and Elle has a dance recital on Saturday we opted out of going to Park City which is where we have gone in the past years... Jacks birthday was so nice, we had a great time on Saturday with family coming over for treats and play time with Jack. Then Sunday - his actual birthday- it was just a really nice day weather wise so we were able to go for a walk and spend time outside finally!! Jack seemed to like the idea that it was his birthday, when I would sing the Happy Birthday song to him I would point to him every time we sang "You" and he would just start laughing or giving his little shy grin, it was soooo cute. Elle LOVED helping her little brother open his gifts, although I'm not quite sure he needed as much help as she gave. But as always she was so cute with him. We wanted to save a few gifts for him from Saturday to Sunday but as the afternoon moved into night she kept saying "can we open just one more" so by Sunday morning he had 2 of his gifts left to open. I can't believe my little man is 2yrs old. He is doing so good, we are just so proud of him and his sister.... Besides that we are just waiting for our little girl to arrive..... Mommy really wants her to come asap, Dad would like her to make her way into this world sometime next week, but I think Elle is with me on this one... She was talking to my belly tonight saying "we really want to see what your hair looks like and what your face looks like, so please come out" We will just have to see.... We have moved Jack out of the room we have used as our Nursery for both Elle and him. His new room is very cute and we are tackling the challenge of moving him out of a crib into a toddler bed. I was worried at first, but now seeing him climb in an out of the bed I'm not worried at all.. It is so cute to watch him get into the bed with his little legs climbing up - again I need to take a picture- but then even if he were to ever tumble out the bed is so close to the ground that it wouldn't be too bad if it ever happened. The great thing is that we put some pillows up to block the one area that is not "fenced" in and he doesn't even try to move it, so I think we are going to be ok at least for a little bit : ) The Nursery still needs help and hopefully in the next few days we will be done I feel like at the end of everyday I have to start upstairs and work my way down to the basement cleaning up everything, some nights I only can tackle the middle floor or a few rooms upstairs, but I'm hoping very soon our whole house will be really close to being all organized. We are close so keep your fingers crossed.... So that is where we are at, very excited for this little one in my belly to come and join our family, and getting ready for Elles dance recital on Saturday, it should be something to see : )

I love Elle's comments to your belly...that's too funny! Ella's comments to hearing we're having a girl "But I wanted a brother! I like baby boys!" I guess it'll take some time to get her loving her sister like Elle loves hers.
ReplyDeleteWow! You're braver than I ma, I still have ENoch in his crib. I like the 'captivity' part of it, great for the nap time.
ReplyDeleteFind a trampoline and jump jump jump! Caster oil works if you can stand the taste (ick) but mostly she'll come when she's supposed to come. Do you have a name picked out yet?
Your tiny one will be here before you know it! How exciting!
