31 Weeks

We are getting so close to baby girl's due date - hard to believe! Just 2 months and 2 days.  I'm guessing we won't make it that long again but we will see :)  I have my last call scheduled for May 2nd so it would be ideal if we could just make it past then.

We have made lots of progress on her nursery, Andy finished up all the painting this week while I've been working nights and it looks pretty cute :)  I repainted a dresser I found at Homegoods so that's taken care of.  I've also ordered a wooden sign with her name for above the bed as well as coordinating big sis/little sis outfits for the hospital.  Speaking of the hospital, I've been thinking about putting together a little gift for Harper from her new baby sister so she will feel special also when she comes to meet miss Emma Kate.  I spent the wee hours of last night pinteresting and found the sweetest personalized book idea that I think I'm going to make her.  In addition I think I'll get her a movie and some other activities that may entertain her if she's willing to stay at the hospital for us for a bit :)

I took a bump picture tonight in the same outfit I wore all last pregnancy... whew... definitely a bigger bump this time around!! And I'm blaming the puffy looking face on night float exhaustion??  I hope Harper's size wasn't a fluke and this baby is the 10 pounder that I was worried about the first time around.

I watched one of our neighbor's 10 month old baby this week along with Harper.  Two kids is a game changer! haha... talk about making it difficult to also be productive around the house.  I figure I'll adapt but trying to coerce Harper to go wherever I need her to go with my hands full of another baby was no easy task.  We did get to take the double stroller out for a test ride and Harper was definitely a fan :)

Here's our little update! :)
