Last night together as a family of 5!
Dave and I wanted to do something fun with the kids on our last night together as the-family-as-we've-known-it-for-the-past-5-years". We discussed bowling, fun parks, movies, dinner out, etc., but we decided to take them shopping where they could each spend the $10 on something they could play with while mom is busy over the next few weeks. They thought that was a great idea. We started with a little family meeting about what having a baby will change in our family: ex. mom being tired and needing more help and the kids doing more for themselves, etc. Then we went on our little outing to Wal-Mart. Kyra and Darci picked Polly Pocket princesses and Littlest Petshops while Mark picked out yet another Transformer. :) These will definitely keep them happy and busy for hours on end. . .which was our intention. We had a fun time looking through all the toys and letting the kids change their minds a million times before deciding on their final purchases. We are all ready for whatever tomorrow brings. If the past is any indication, I'll go in at noon, get an epidural by 1:00, Dr. will show up around 1:30 to break my water, and baby boy will be born around 2:00. We'll see how close to that it all happens. :)

ReplyDeleteToo bad the labor and delivery weren't quite so smooth. But who wanted a predictable birth?! Congratulations!
