Four Weeks to Go!!

    I can not believe I am 36 weeks.... time is flying by!! In four weeks (or less) Olivia will be here. The way my luck runs though I will go all the way to my due date.... as long as she's healthy I am ok with waiting for her. Lets just see if I feel that way in another few weeks though:) I think the dogs have finally figured out that something different is happening... they have both been sniffing my belly lately,  Lilly just stares at me, and both are very curious about everything we put in the nursery. Speaking of the nursery... we are all set!! Thanks to the awesome people I work with we now have everything (at least that I know of) and I received all the "big" items: carseat, swing and highchair.... along with alot of cute monogrammed outfits. Ben and I put the carseat bases in our cars today... the highchair is together ( a little early for that I know, but Ben was excited), the bassinet is ready and waiting and Olivia's clothes are packed for the hospital... although mine are not. There are several of us at work and at church that are all due within a month of each other: 2 of them had their babies this week.... and I keep thinking, "wow, it is really time and it's really going to happen!" I'm just waiting for my turn in a few more weeks!

Happy New Year!! It's 2011.... Olivia will be here soon!

    Happy New Year everyone.... yes 6 days into it.... I can still say it right? I cant believe how fast the holidays went by and here we are back to "normal." Ben and I had a great Christmas and a very low key New Year. Ben and I got spoiled at Christmas and we celebrated New Years by having Sonic on the couch and were in bed by 10pm... big partiers huh.

Jax always loves presents too



   As of today I am now 34 weeks along.... 6 weeks or less to go! I cant believe it, time is flying by. I am starting to freak out a little bit.... the kids in my house always go home after a day or so.... Olivia is going to stay... there's no sending her home with my sister like I do with my nieces and nephew:) Don't get me wrong... I'm very excited... I think I'm still getting used to the fact that I'm actually having a baby..hehe. We have the nursery ready and waiting, just need to do some organization after my baby shower next weekend! Olivia spends her days doing flips, sticking her butt in my ribs and dancing on my bladder.... but I have loved every bit of it so far. I can sit all day and watch my belly move. I have been feeling pretty good... although work is wearing me down....I crash at the end of those 12 hour days!
So for now... I am going to keep trekking on and waiting for February!!

Finishing Touches
