It has been an exciting couple of weeks since I last posted! So much to talk about and so little time, not to mention that I have begun an ongoing battle with heartburn so every 30 minutes I am on google to see how many tums I can take without somehow overloading Cameron with calcium. Every symptom gets us closer to his arrival. Today marks week 26 meaning only 14 weeks left! Moving on... let's start with showers, both wedding and baby. A couple of weeks ago we got to celebrate Miss Morgan and her upcoming nuptials. It was a great weekend in STL with good friends. We toasted to the bride...
We caught an NLCS game...
and Kevin ran his first marathon!
Now we are preparing for Cameron's shower this weekend. I can't wait to celebrate his arrival with family and friends. We are starting with a girls spa day with my Momma and amazing Sister-in-Laws, then head to my Grandma's house for the big party! Cameron is one lucky little boy already as he has already gotten a couple of deliveries. Thanks to the awesome Chicago Langdons Cameron will be riding in style in his stroller and car seat!
Also, Cameron's honorary Auntie Angela supplied him with a mix of essentials that we will soon put to good use.
A big thank you to both of them for thinking of our baby boy.
Next up, nursery preparations. Cameron's Grandma and Grandpa Ool sent his nursery set last week so Kevin got to spend some solid man time assembling the furniture. Once it was all in place, my Mom came down for a visit to get started on some decor. We have a long way to go, but it made me feel better to get started. A few pennants and picture frames later... the picture frames have clips glued in holding his initials, but can be subbed out for pictures once our little man arrives!
I also scored an awesome iBaby video monitor that feeds directly to my iPad for more than 50% off. Add a few prints and a mason jar full of pacifiers and what baby wouldn't want to chill in there. It is a work in progress, but becoming more baby friendly with every trip to Hobby Lobby.
Now that I have overloaded the post with pictures, onto the questions.
How are you sleeping?: Sporadically after working overnight for a few days in Denver, but working on getting back to normal.
What was the best moment this week?: I was so excited to see my stroller and car seat show up this week. Making sure we have the big items like that sets my mind at ease.
Do you miss anything?: I miss being able to sit comfortably. At this point I am better standing than sitting.
Cravings?: Sweets... always sweets. We will see if the candy I bought for trick-or-treaters lasts until someone shows up.
Mood lately?: Pretty good. No irrational breakdowns over sappy commercials or old movies so I think I will call that a win.
What are you looking forward to?: Cameron's shower not only means getting him outfitted for his pending arrival, but it means spending time with all of the people I love. I can't wait!
Maternity Clothes?: Becoming more and more common in my weekly lineup.
Stretch Marks?: Nothing yet. Hoping it stays that way.
One last thing... I want to wish my baby brother a very happy birthday today! I hope that if and when Cameron get's a brother or sister, he is lucky enough to get a Travis!
