The Day/Night before you were Born

I thought I would document the day before our 2nd child was born.  So here goes...

I got up pretty early yesterday - like 5:30 because I just couldn't sleep anymore.  Turned on the news for a bit and eventually fell back asleep until big brother woke up which was pretty close to 7am.

 Daddy had already left for work for the day around 6:15 so I brought Grey into bed with me where we snuggled and snuggled, sipped on orange juice, and watched Mickey Mouse.

 It was a beautiful morning compared to what we have been having...we have been waking up to cloudy skies but today was bright blue skies and the sun was shining...

 Big brother was perfectly content snuggling under the sheets in bed

Good morning....Grey and those sleepy eyes still...

Grey and I finally got out of bed, showered, and ready around 9am.  The both of us ate breakfast/took our vitamins and then it was off for a Target/Walmart run to get a few more things before you arrived Baby E!  After Walmart we stopped at grandma Joyce's and grandpa Hank's to fill them in on the schedule of my c-section and times and so on.

Grey needed a little finger nail trim while we were there...

A little snuggling with great grandma Joyce was definitely in order

and one with Papa Hank too

Then we played a bit with our hard hat and

some playdoh... Had some lunch...

and then of course landed at the pool until nap time.

Grey wanted me to put on goggles and I was trying to get a picture of the two of us...

Today's pool highlights were him really sticking his face under water and holding his breath...

After the pool we came home and Grey slept from 1:15 - 4:30.  When he got up daddy was home and Grey was roaring to go.  Grammy Ann had called and invited us down for supper so that's where we headed.

We let your big brother run around like this because we were working on the whole potty thing.  So I just sat there with my tea in a wine glass (always more fun) while we kept asking Grey if he had to go potty.

Then we had a cheers to you Baby E and our last night as a family of 3...Some tea, some apple juice, and a corona!

Grammy Ann INSISTED that I take one last belly pic the night before having you.  So here we are together peanut.  (39 weeks & 2 days)  I'm so ready to meet you in person!

and so is your daddy and big brother!



So there you have it....what we did the day and night before Baby E joined us.

Thanks for being so good to me for 9 months peanut!
