Glad it's Wednesday...

Today will be filled with doing lots of laundry and lots of cleaning. Josh has our room basically put together the way it should be. I need to get Ryan to put all his toys away and help me make his bed. Josh scrubbed the bathroom over the weekend so that leaves me with the living room, dining room and kitchen to put back together. Tomorrow I will probably spend cooking and baking. I'm going to make up some batches of waffles, pancakes and french toast that Josh can just pop in the microwave for him and Ryan for breakfasts. Also I'm going to get some roll dough made. Our small freezer is getting quite full, but that is good. Meals will be one less thing we have to worry about. Maybe once I get everything stuffed in there, I'll take a picture...cause it's kind of funny! I think things are finally coming together which is nice, because it's possible that Josh is started to get a little freaked. :-) He gave me a lecture the other morning about how I needed to have a bag for me and Ryan ready to go. He was also "nesting" all weekend which was pretty funny. :-) I think the realization of it all is hitting him and he just wants to make sure that everything is ready. So I guess that's a nother thing I should put on my list to make Josh feel better is to get mine and Ryan's bags together. :-) So the rest of this week is going to be pretty busy for me. I have to get Ryan registered for kindergarten tomorrow and then Friday I have another dr's appt. Then we drive down to Eugene for the baby shower on Saturday and I get to see all my friends!!! :-) Then basically any time after that it's okay if I have Cole. :-) I've been trying really hard to not jinx myself by not counting on going into labor early. It doesn't mean I don't hope!! :-)
An update on mom...she's doing really good. I talked to her yesterday and she said she stood on her own twice for three seconds. They are getting her standing which is great! She's always exhausted after her therapy, but I think that helps her sleep better at night. Her good friend Donna is coming out to stay with her until the 7th or so. Then after that, her other good friend Kristi is coming to stay with her for a week. She loves having visitors cause it keeps spirits up and keeps her busy. While Jenn was there, she put up all the cards, letters and pictures that have been sent to mom and everyone had commented about how happy mom's room looks.
Well I think that's about all for now. I'd better get to work if I plan on getting anything done. :-)

For sure take a picture of the freezer when you get it stocked. I don't think Josh is the only one nesting : ) I am so happy to hear that your mom is improving. Send her my love next time you talk to her. Can't wait to see you Saturday : ) Love you!!!!

You have WAY more energy than I did at that point in the pregnancy! Good for you, girl. Get lots done.
Love you.

I wish I were going to be there on Saturday. :( Get as much done as you can, it will make things much easier in the long run and I think you and Josh are cute with all your "nesting".
