A quick update

Well here we are in the final two weeks, wow I can't believe how fast this has gone.The next two weeks are pretty busy around here.

Tomorrow in the morning, I am volunteering at Andrew's school. At 2pm I have an appointment with my family Doctor for a pre-operative medical before my c-section. After 3pm Kathy (the lactation consultant) is coming over for tea so we can meet and talk about breastfeeding.

Thursday morning I have an appointment at the hospital for my gestational diabetes and yet another growth ultrasound- boy, they are really anal about these ultrasounds when you have diabetes. I guess it's a good thing... Then in the afternoon I have a appointment with my obstetrician Dr. Morrow. I think I might get my first internal exam *yay*. It should be interesting to see if anything is going on down there, I've been feeling pretty crampy the last week and not really feeling that great.

Friday, we are venturing out with the kids in the snow to cut down our Christmas tree at Drysdales tree farm This should be good for a laugh, I hope Craig is up to pulling me, the kids and the tree in the toboggan back to the car ha! ha! ha! In the evening Granny is coming over to watch the kids as Craig and I are meeting his shift mates at The Miller Tavern for our yearly Christmas party.

The weekend we have the kids over so we will be doing some fun stuff with them.

Next week looks way less busy ( which is how I planned it) I need the rest before Joshua arrives. I may have one last appointment with Dr. Morrow on Thursday and I'm volunteering again on Wednesday morning, just helping out at the school.

On the 24th I go to to hospital to sign stuff, they are calling it a "pre-admit" for the c-section. Christmas Eve I will be alone with the kids (Craig is working till 9pm or so). We are planning to watch a Christmas movie and bake some cookies for Santa. December 25th Granny is coming over to stay for a few days to visit the kids and help me out at the hospital.

So as you can see everything is pretty much in place unless Josh decides that he wants to come out sooner LOL! I have everything done ( I can't believe it) the bag is packed, all the clothes are washed and put away and the nursery is ready to go. I have finished all the Christmas shopping and have wrapped all the gifts. It's funny, it really just hit me the other day that I'm about to have another baby!!!! I just can't believe it, life truly is amazing isn't it?
