And there is so much to do! No time to nap!
I am most definitely nesting.
Except when I decide I am exhausted, which sometimes happens about 1pm.
I'm feeling every ounce of this baby right now. I don't walk now, I lumber. I'm grateful for slip on shoes and for the days when the kids are independent enough to put their own shoes on.Tums are a daily neccessity.
Ken and I went on a hospital tour recently and it was good to finally visualize her birthday. I'm excited about the midwives I am seeing. I am just itching for the day I get to see this mystery girl.New baby, new hospital, new state.
I'm lucky enough to sleep pretty well, the majority of the time. And fortunately, Jared listens when I tell him it is too early to get up.
Jared and Rosie are really getting into the idea of a new sister. Jared tells people (ie-strangers anywhere we go) that he is getting a new baby, but that we don't know what her name is yet. True. He also likes to tickle her with one finger, wherever I indicate her belly probably is, because a one finger tickle is much more gentle in his mind. Rosie will not hear tell that she will be the big sister (Jared is big, she is little), but she coos at my belly and sings. Or she'll touch my stomach for just a second and yell, "He kicked me!" (Pronouns aren't her strong suit yet). They both like helping me organize the nursery and squeaking baby toys for the baby to "see." The relationship of siblings is one of my favorite things to see with our little ones.
Come soon, Little Girl!
