(Does 12 days sound shorter?)
2 weeks and Counting. Or Does 12 days sound shorter?
Can you believe it? I can't.... time has gone fast and slow all at the same time.... Right now I guess I would say time is slowing down. We have officially moved into our new apartment! I must say it was the longest move EVER! We started on February 15th and didn't not completely finish until March 30th. 6 long weeks of lifting, shifting and arranging...But it was all very worth it, we love our new apartment, its almost like our own house.
This weekend we were able to get the little boys room put together.. the bed and the changing table, organization of clothes and the washing of bed linens. I will have to post a photo of his room at some point. We still have art work that needs to be framed, but everything is starting to come together. We also did the hospital tour which scared me a bit, I must admit. Me, someone who has never had stitches... but I will say that North Western Women's Hospital is an incredible facility. So it will be okay, I can not wait to meet this baby boy... (at least they told us its a boy, It would be quite the shocker if it wasn't). I have learned a lot about my child over the last 38 weeks. yet I often feel like I don't know anything about hi.
Here are 3 thinks I do know
1. He gets the hic-ups once or twice a day...... May be he likes to eat as much and as fast and I do?
2. He likes to dance.... We hooked up the ear phones to the belly a few days ago and boy did he know know to move.
3. He sleeps a lot. ......He is not one to make big moves but rather gentle little shakes and snuggles.
It will be fun to see what personality this little child will have. I still can't believe a baby is going to come out of this funny stomach bump that I have been carrying around for almost 10 months, It is such an alien-ish experience.... but It will be so worth it all when we meet him. I am looking forward to getting my pre-Prego body back, not that it will ever be exactly the same, but then again, my body was ever a knock out slender shape to start with. Although I can say I will miss the little tugs and shifts of this child with in... it is such an amazing experience that some women never experience. I hope I will have the opportunity to experience it again.. it is truly amazing!
The weather has starting to turn to spring, which is nice. We had high 60's this weekend and sunny! Which was great as Chicago winters seem to last forever! This weekend we were able to grill out in the sun on Saturday and go out for breakfast on Sunday followed by a hike to the park 4 me to lay in the grass and read about the herb garden I am planning for this summer and For Gene to run a hole mile and a half. It was a beautiful spring weekend.
Okay I have rambled on long enough... take care.
