Adalyn's arrival is just a few days away! Like, we're talking single digits! I couldn't be more ready and I'm so excited to finally meet her and bring her home to our growing family!
The past few days have been filled with crossing things off of our "to-do" list..... Gretchen finished swim lessons on Thursday and I've been slowly packing hospital bags, finishing hair bows, and making sure that the girls will be well taken care of while DJ and I are in the hospital.
I made a month long menu and went to the grocery store, and somehow DJ and I managed to stuff all of the groceries in the refrigerator, freezer, and pantry. He also washed and vacuumed out both of our cars, and we've been trying to get all of the paperwork done for our house in Indiana..... we have a pending sale- Woot Woot!
Megan had her two year well child check up this week and received one shot. Bless her little heart, she is still so timid and shy and cries any time she's around someone new that is trying to take her or help her. The nurse even gave her a sticker, but MC barely let them touch her. It was a bit trying to hold her down and let the doctor do her job, but we made it!
The only time MC was happy was when she was alone with me! And, you see, she had to bring her baby along with her.
The doctor gave her a sucker, but I don't think it was enough bribery to convince MC to like her!
After the appointment, we headed to the football office, where DJ had Gretchen, and picked her up. Then, we drove through Sonic for dinner. After dinner the girls fought over their bean bag chairs..... my mom bought G one for Christmas and the first time that G used it, MC wanted to 'share', so my mom decided to buy MC a bean bag for her birthday. We all thought that if we had two bean bags, one for each girl, then there wouldn't be any fighting over them. Boy was I wrong! MC wants them both to herself!
Here's G before I made her go put her pj's on..... I bought fresh green beans from the grocery store, and she's been eating them uncooked. Silly girl.
And, here I am at 37 1/2 weeks pregnant! I haven't blogged about my pregnancy in a while, so here's some playing catch up! I started going to bi-weekly visits in May, and at 36 weeks I started going weekly. I am favorable for the induction, and my doctor and I agreed to induce on July 5th. He was in agreement with inducing at 39 weeks, and Friday the 5th is exactly 39 weeks. At first, I wasn't sure with a July 5th birthday, the day after the 4th of July, but now, i'm all for it- only because if I waited through the weekend, it would be close to my birthday and it would mean that i'd be pregnant for a few more days!
I'm not even going to mention the amount of weight I've gained. Thankfully, people don't seem to notice and for now, it's just a number on the scale. However, Adalyn might be at least 10 lbs, plus the water weight is maybe another 10, and so on!
I'm not a good water drinker, but at night I want ice cold water. I also want ice cream, chocolate, and peanut butter cups. Nothing about this pregnancy has been healthy, except for maybe the chia seeds and greek yogurt I had the other day.
I've had braxton hicks contractions, but nothing more serious than that. Rolling over is definitely a chore, and insomnia has hit. DJ and I have stayed up until at least 11, the past few weeks, and I know that we're crazy, but neither of us is having an easy time falling asleep.
I plan on getting in a spa, mani/pedi day before Adalyn arrives, but I keep forgetting to book the appointment! The rest of this weekend and next week will be spent at the pool- I've got to get my tan on! And finishing up our last little to-do's!
My family will arrive on the 4th, and we plan on smoking ribs and swimming, and DJ's family will arrive on the 5th!
I told DJ that in reality, she'll be here in just a few days, and in some ways, that seems really fast, and in others, it still feels forever away!
