39 Weeks

Sister has yet to make her arrival.  I am 39 weeks today, and so far there is no sign she will be coming anytime real soon.  I am trying to come to terms with the fact that I will be pregnant forever.  Ok, maybe not but it sure does fell like it!

Nothing really new to update on...I still can not relax.  I can sit for about 5 minutes before my legs feel like they are going to run a marathon without me.  I take at least 2 baths a day, to help relax my legs.  Since the weather has been so nice in Michigan, I have also been walking a few miles a day.  My poor mom & husband are so sick of walking with me. :)  I have slowed down in the last few days.  One mile is more than enough!

I woke DJ up at 3am last night, when I was saying "ouch ouch ouch!"  He flew up, asking me what was wrong.  He was a little disappointed when I finally managed to get "charley horse!" out.  I haven't had one in about a month, but apparently they are back.  Man do they hurt!!  He asked that next time to just say "charley horse" instead of "ouch" when I'm 39 weeks pregnant.  Unfortunately...at 3am, we were both up for the day.  *yawn*  We are dragging here today.

Aside from that we are just waiting....and waiting....and waiting...

Happy Friday

Linking up with Jeannett over at Life.Rearranged for InstaFriday.

Sharing our weekly cell phone pictures.

I do not have an iPhone...and my phone takes pretty crummy pictures-sorry! :)

 

 He gets a bath every night.  He always wants to be tightly wrapped up in his "B's", drink his chocolate milk (aka: choc-choc), and watch a movie.  He thrives on routine...plus he is a little ocd.

He finally got a hair cut.  He looks so old now!

There is still no sign of Baby Sister around here.  (10 more days)  One day when I was going absolutely crazy, I decided we were going to head to Carter's, armed with a coupon, to pick up a few necessities.   And then I saw this dress....not exactly a necessity.  It took me a minute to justify it-but she needs a dress for my Brother & SIL's wedding this summer.  Works for me.

Things you get to do when your Mommy is 38 weeks pregnant and miserable?  Drag out every pillow in the house into the living room, and watch movies on the floor all day.

Hanna Andersson has amazing clothes for littles.  They have outrageous prices!  The HA outlet in Michigan City has amazing prices.  Like each of these dresses was less than $10...and I didn't have to leave my house.  I get an email that their clearance is 50% off, call them, they shop for me, explain what they pick out, and within 2 days, it is delivered to my door step.  love!

He woke up at 6am the other day.  He usually doesn't get up until 8:30.  He was tired.  He was not happy.  His diaper leaked, so he was soaked and cold.  So Mommy put him in the tub.  He was obviously thrilled about this. {not.so.much}

After I took the first picture and told him I was sending it to Daddy, he pulled out his paci, and said "CHEESE" then put it back in and continued giving me a crusty! Goofball!

The only way we know Karson is teething, is when he stops eating.  He has eaten very little in the last few weeks as his iteeth finally pop through.  The other day, he ate every bit of his lunch, and was so proud!  So we sent a picture to Daddy.

Enjoy your weekend!!

11 Days

There are 11 days until my due date.  And still, no sign that Sister will be coming any time soon.  I am starting to go a little crazy.  I can not sit, and relax.  When I do, I feel like I am going to crawl out of my skin.  My legs feel like they are going to take off with out me.  I have been walking a few miles a day.   For the most part, I can either be found taking a warm bath, walking, or taking Karson somewhere to keep my mind of waiting for Sister.  I am trying to remember that she will come when she is ready. 

I are spending as much time as I can with my sweet boy before he is a big brother.

                                 "Mama, bug!"                                                                                    "I jump!"

                                 "Mama, airplane!"                                                       "Nose!"


...and with that I have to get up because my legs are trying to run a marathon! :)

Karson's 1st Haircut

Aside from when he was first born, Karson has pretty much been bald his whole live.

 We joked that he would never have hair.

Kinda like we joked he would never have teeth...since his 1st tooth popped through after his 1st birthday.

Then all of a sudden...his hair got out of control!

A curly, random, crazy mess! 

 I told DJ to make an appointment to get his hair cut before the baby was born. 

Last week we took him to tame his crazy hair!

Karson is a pretty shy kid...for about 2 seconds.  Then he turns back into his crazy self.

 But, new situations scare him, and he attaches himself to Mama.  

We thought he was going to flip.

We had talked-up getting his hair cut all day!

He was pretty excited about having cars on his cape...so far so good!

He absolutely shocked us...he did so well!!

When he got board-we gave him the spray bottle.

He tried to spray his own hair.

Then realized it was more fun to spray everyone else.

 He did so well, and tells everyone he got his hair cut.

My only complaint...

he looks so old now!

Dancing with his "Choc Choc"

The {soon to be} Big Brother

{and by soon I mean whenever his sister decides to join us}

{which I hope is sooner rather than later}

Happy Friday!

Linking up with Jeannett from Life.Rearranged

This has been a daily occurrence in my driveway for the last week.

And no, I don't live in Florida or California.

I live in Michigan.

It is March, and almost in the 90s the last few days. 

Karson is loving getting to play in the water outside lately, but his very preggo Mama is HOT! 

That squirt bottle?

We use it to spray the dog when she barks.

Occasionally it gets into Karson's hands.

Then Molls usually gets sprayed for sleeping on the couch.

Again, March in Michigan.

Wrapped up in a towel after playing in the hose.

Lounging at Nana & Bumpa's. 

Eating an ice cream cone.

80 degree weather makes for one tired 2 year old.

He loves to be wrapped up in his "B's."

He is getting big so fast, I love when I catch a glimpse of him still looking so little!!

Molly.

Couldn't find her anywhere

we don't have a fence and don't tie her up 

Karson was playing with the hose.

She was hiding behind bushes next to our house. 

I may not be a huge fan of almost 90 degree weather in MARCH when I am ready to pop.

But used it to my advantage for a trip to the beach at the beginning of the week.

Karson asks to go back to the "peach" every day!
