Baby Update

Hi everyone. I just wanted to post a quick note and let you all know the baby has not come yet. I am being induced on May 23 so I have about two weeks left! I can't wait. Of course right now everything is difficult and uncomfortable. Sleep is a thing of the past so I am tired and run down all the time but I'm trying to hang in there.

Sarah has been testing her boundaries lately and that doesn't help things. I'm trying different tactics with her and some of them seem to work some don't. I keep telling her the baby will be here soon and she responds with, "baby sister". So she understands this new baby is her sister but I'm not sure she really gets that a little baby will soon come to permanently live with us. I know she will be a big help though. The past few weeks she has really started playing with her baby doll again. She rocks her, sings to her, puts her down for naps, feeds her and pats her when she's "crying". She also likes to give her baby hugs and kisses and tells her she loves her. I tell Sarah she is such a good mommy and that makes her happy.

As far as the nesting goes, there are still many things I would like to get done before the baby comes but I just don't have the energy to get it all done. Oh well, I'm willing to live with that.

Kevin and I are still trying to pick out a name. We have one in mind but we just can't commit to it until we see her. I'll try and get a preggo picture of me posted in the next week or so. I know those are always fun to see.
