Wow! 14 days to go until the EDD and we are greatly anticipating this little girl's arrival! The nursery is cleaned out of everything that doesn't need to be in there, well except my wedding dress - I just don't know what to do with it! The swing is up in her room and the cradle is also in there still but they don't need to be out in the open yet. It is hard enough to keep Preston out of them when they are not in constant sight. We do need some more wall decorations, but I think we are doing better this time around than with Preston's room at first. I do plan on getting some of that vinyl wall decoration saying type things for both of their rooms at some point.
I packed a bag last night! So I am pretty ready now if she decides to come early. We still need to install car seats into our vehicles but that can be done anytime before we leave the hospital. As the days until she arrives become shorter, I am feeling more and more ready and slightly uncomfortable. I think part of that is I'm just tired to maternity clothes and make shift maternity clothes! I would like my clothes to fit a little better than they are currently.
At my doc appointment this week, no progress was made...dang. He did say that if she hasn't come before my next appointment, we would set an induction date. I have very mixed feelings about being induced. I'm definitely ready for her to be here, but unless she is really late I would like her to come on her own. I hear that being induced is a lot harder and longer process. We'll just wait and see I guess.
This past weekend was Memorial Day weekend and it was lovely! I definitely enjoyed my extra day off to spend with the boys and some friends. The weather was good all weekend - rained a little on Sunday but not for long and the sun was warm enough to dry it fast enough for AJ to mow the yard that day.
Preston had a lot of fun new experiences this weekend too - he got to help wash cars and play outside in the sprinkler. He had a blast in the sprinkler once Daddy and Mark showed him what to do!
If you haven't seen Preston in a while, next time you see him you will be amazed at how much he has grown up and his vocabulary is expanding. He doesn't cease to amaze me daily. I am ready and kind of nervous at the same time about him meeting and accepting his new little sister. I know he will eventually really enjoy having her around but I'm a little nervous about the first couple of days for him and me!
We hope everyone had a fantastic Memorial Day and remembered all those who gave up their lives for us and those that served our country in the past and present. God bless!

It took a while for him to warm up to this statue!
Preston helped me make some cupcakes this weekend - he loves icing!
Ravioli face!
Finally worked up the courage to run through the sprinkler!
