Spring is finally here!!!

I am doing well as is baby #4. We are at 33 weeks, so we have about 4 weeks until I'm considered "full-term", 5 weeks until we are at the point when Madelyn was born and about 7-8 weeks until both the other boys were born. We'll see if this guy comes late like his brothers or somewhere in the middle! The pregnancy has really flown by and been really easy compared to my last one. My biggest complaint has got to be the fact that we've had the stomach flu hit our house twice this season and are currently getting over the cold from hell. I just hope this is the last round of sickies we get this spring. My appt today said he was measuring about 35 weeks and that I'm a bit dehydrated. With being sick, that was expected, but I'm really trying to hydrate and rest up and finally kick this cold. Our next appt is the "home visit" when our midwives will come over, bring the birth tub, make sure we have our birth kit supplies and know where we live. I'm excited to have dinner with them and get to hang out. Most of my prenatals lately have been over an hour because we end up chatting and catching up! I cannot believe I'm already at the point in pregnancy where it is time for the home visit. This little guy is going to be here before we know it!


I have a list about a mile long of things I'd like to accomplish before the baby gets here. Many of it is the usual spring cleaning list and garden planting. I'm hoping to get at least some of it done, but mostly I just want to enjoy the rest of the pregnancy. I'm knitting some hats and socks and going to be sewing some pillows out of fleece for each of the siblings as their gifts. When Hudson was born, they each got fleece blankets.

Check out the kids individual pages for an interview I did with them (I got the idea from my friend Pam and her lovely kids! Thanks!)
