He is FINALLY here!

        It's been almost a week, can you believe it?! I certainly can't. We are so happy to have him. He is a very sweet and calm little baby.....when he's not hungry! LOL! like every baby he sleep, eats and poops and when he is  awake he is quiet and just looks around. I love this little boy more and more every day. I can't believe that we have a baby in the house and the girls are just thrilled to have him. They take turns carrying him and are always willing to help when it comes down to him.

Almost there!

I am only 3 weeks away from my due date! I really can't take the horrible ligament pains that won't let me walk like a normal human being, won't let me sleep, and won't let me do much. Other than that I am way excited. My girls were both born a week earlier so maybe and hopefully he decides to come early too. I just want to be able to carry him and why not, share him with his sisters, but mostly walk and "sleep" again.

I don't know if this baby will be bigger or not, I have gained about the same amount of pounds as the last one, but I do know this pregnancy has been completely different than the other two. The morning sickness wasn't just during the morning hours, it hit anytime of the day and I am literally wobbling and feel like a whale and carrying a HUGE baby.

So, I have to talk about my baby shower. It was exactly what I expected, but with less people than I expected. I didn't want to invite all of the ladies from church because we wouldn't have fit here at my house and well, I honestly just wanted the closest friends and family. The list was only 15 ladies including my mom and myself. Alison wouldn't be here, but in Texas (jealous! :-D), my friend would be having her baby  around that time, but she said she'd come if she didn't go into labor (got induced the night before) 2 down and 13 to go, a sister from church told me from the beginning she had to work and wouldn't make it, another friend would be in SLC that weekend, my sister in law was leaving to Dallas that weekend too, but I didn't know when exactly (she was actually here that day and could have come, but I don't know why she didn't) 10 left, right?  actually 8 because my mom and me don't count. So only one sister from church, my good friend Daneka and her mother in law showed up. The other 2  ladies from church, my mother in law and 2 other friends didn't show up. We still had a good time! we also had a lot of food and thank you gifts left over ( chocolates and hand soaps) LOL!!

So now we are trying to get the house in order and just taking more stuff out for a last garage sale we will be having with our good friends, who are also moving. I can't believe we move in about 6 or 7 weeks! We finally got a SUV with 3rd row seating. Our baby boy will now be able to fit. I am so very grateful that things are working out so far for us and hopefully we'll find a nice and decent place to live in Philly. I am really gonna miss this place now that I know how Pennsylvania is.

Well, it's time to keep on working and cleaning this house, but here are some pics for your entertainment. Hope you enjoy!
