Starting over..

Now that it's been nearly 2 years since I last blogged... I thought I'd at least give it a go on our family site, especially now that our family will soon be expanding!!!

Issac is getting excited about meeting his baby brother! Expected 10/24/10

We were able to surprise most of our family at Issac's third birthday, as everyone applauded my mother said "Are you Pregnant?!?!".... 

Issac's last birthday present was the shirt he's wearing

Through most of the pregnancy we have not had many issues until about 27 weeks, when I was dilated 1 cm...  This lead to the beginning of restrictions, take it easy, no lifting, stairs, walking and found a new one no singing.  Now we are at 32 weeks and since a week after the restrictions began I am no longer dilated!!! Prayer, resting and relaxing have all played a huge part in that!

We're starting to realize that he could be arriving at anytime now!!! Just last night we discussed that this was about the time when I was prego with Issac that I went into labor!!!  We have gotten most everything ready for his arrival.  Thanks to great friends we have a bed, dresser and changing table!! (I'm sure Craig's disappointed that I wont be sending him to IKEA to get furniture now!!)  I was able to get a great deal on a new stroller/car seat combo, now we just need to get the seat into the car!  I have my toiletry bag packed, still haven't got my hospital bag ready, that will be a project for this coming weekend!  I have a few things set out to take for the baby... now the biggest question is what are we going to do with Issac???

This is a difficult one for us, since he will not be allowed at the hospital.  He has spent the night with his grandparents a few times over the last year, but never DAYS away from mom.... I don't know who it will be harder on him or me and I guess dad's going to be busy running between us :(
