baby room

I guess since it is 1/2 way through July, I should do a post!! We have been working at getting the baby room ready and now that it is done, I can post pictures. The walls in the room are a very light mauve/purple colour. It was painted that way when we moved in and we decided to keep it that way, just in case some day we would have another baby and it would be a girl. :) So everything is ready, even the clothing is washed. Now we just wait in these next 6 weeks or so, for the baby to continue to grow healthy and strong and to be born at the right time. I saw my OB for the first time, on Tuesday. I had to wait 2 hours to be seen since she had to go twice to the hospital for deliveries. Oh well, Paul was home with the boys having some father-sons bonding time, and I had a good book with me. The pregnancy continues to go well. I am healthy and after thinking about how much weight I have gained this time round, it is not as much as I had thought. I have been working out and drinking lots of water and trying to eat healthy, but still enjoying the occasional treat. I am carrying more out front this time too. I feel like I have a ball in my belly. The boys keep talking about their baby sister and what they are going to do to help out and how they will hold her/rock her etc. It is very cute to hear their enthusiasm about a new baby. We are all very excited to meet this little one! :)

We are leaving for vacation this week and are looking forward to spending time at our trailer. My parents and sisters will be there too so we will have some fun times once again. We also go again 1 week before the baby is due. I am not too worried about having this little one while on vacation, since I was overdue with both the boys. Going on vacation then will be nice too, since it will help pass the time and when we get back, I will only have a few more days until due date. Hope you all are enjoying your summertime and are keeping cool! We have been running our air conditioner during the hot and humid days to keep cool. Hopefully I will have some pictures to post of our vacation sometime when we get back.
