Counting Down the Days 'Til Baby

~Morning snuggles with my baby giril~

It won't be much longer now, baby boy is due in just two weeks.  The months have really flown by.  The last few weeks have been sweet: enjoying special time with the little nuts, as well as attending to last minute details before "he" comes.  Yes, he is still referred to as "baby boy"; I think we might pick out the name at the hospital this time around!  I was freaking out that we hadn't made a decision a couple months ago {OK, maybe just last month}, but I've since swallowed a big chill pill.  He will be named sooner or later!

Instagram sums up a lot of what we've been up to.

New slippers for their baby brother to give them at the hospital:

I slowly piece their birthday parties together, so slowly that I usually overlook some major details while planning the small, fun details.  LOL!  The little man's birthday is next week!  I am decorating his cake with the following and the toys will be his to keep.

She is obsessed with the Little House on the Prairie series.  As I read the books to them, she is going back and re-reading everything multiple times.  She has been wanting to get her baking and sewing groove on.  This week she made us lunch out of her kid's cookbook: chicken Caesar salad with homemade croutons and dressing!  She was so very proud as was I!

I am falling back on some old methods for helping coax baby out as well as trying some new ones.

Raw pineapple?

Patrick's labor march. :-)

We can hardly wait to meet you little man!
