2 MOOOORE DAYS!

I've been in countdown mode for some time.  I know I said I'd post pictures...maybe I just said it in my head, who knows.  Anyway our plan for the evening is to get everything put away where it belongs so maybe tomorrow morning I can finally get some pictures of the babies room without all of my daughters 'play' stuff everywhere.  She's been putting her babies to sleep in there for about a month.  Only time will tell if this was a brilliant way to introduce a sibling to her or the worst idea ever.

We finished painting her room in the last week or so, and by we of course I mean Dave.  He also painted the 2nd bathroom which means officially the only room(s) in our house that have not been updated since we moved in is our bedroom/bathroom.  Our bedroom is still that sexy mauve/lavender combo.  I know everyday Dave wakes up feeling like man.  It's just so gender neutral in there I swear.  Anyway her room is now this very pretty shade of blue.  It's mid-decor phase right now but I'm also hoping to get some shots of her room soon as well.  She might be getting a new bed and I don't want to finish hanging all her wall decor and accessories till we've made a decision on her bed.

Apparently I'm not going to actually talk about giving birth in two days?  I'm just going to talk about home remodeling?  How very deep of me? haha

Lets see if I can get back on topic.

I went yesterday to get my hair done, my eyebrows a prettied up and a mani/pedi.  (this is me getting back on topic I SWEAR).  When I was pregnant with the bebes my girlfriend and I had plans for pedicures and just an afternoon of relaxing...and then my body decided 38 weeks was just about enough...and it was time to have a baby instead.  My hair wasn't washed...my toes...not painted...deep....aka shallow sadness all around lol.  You know...all those important things in life.  This time around....again I wasn't so sure I was going to get to keep my appointment.  About 2 weeks ago my blood pressure went through the roof and we were all a little concerned about preeclampsia or hypertension etc etc...so I was put on 'stay at home and chill out' bedrest.  Not the SUPER serious bedrest but the don't freak yourself out...and make your husband fold the laundry kind of bedrest.  My BP kept teetering back and forth over the past two weeks but we ended on a high dangerous note so it's a good thing I have this whole 'scheduled c-section' thing going on this Tuesday.  Thankfully I also got to keep my 5 hour long spa-ish appointment.  I'm officially a blonde which is NOT what I asked for, but I'm assuming I can just edit all the photos taken of me into B&W and then no one will see the crazy dye job my hair went through this weekend.  OR we can just take pictures of my nails and toe nails...they look great.

So I'm ready this time around.  With the Bebes we had a really crazy 'go to the hospital right now' moment and Dave wasn't with me.  Nothing was ready, and I had a very dear 'male' friend going through my underwear drawer packing my hospital bag.  This time...no one needs to go through my underwear drawer and that right there lowers my BP by 10 points haha.

I'm almost ready for Dave's birthday which is the day AFTER we get home from the hospital and my parents anniversary is next week and we have pictures scheduled with super awesome Karin.  Because I don't need to over plan anything you know 5 seconds after coming home from the hospital?  That would be silly. Another good friend is coming up for the day of delivery to spend it at home with the Bebes before she heads to the hospital to meet her new little brother.  She's been running around for a week telling everyone she's a "big sister soccer player" which is obnoxiously adorable.  I wish she would stop being so cute.  I'm just glad she's covered and she will not feel ignored at all this upcoming week with all the people here to pay attention just to her.  My parents will be here tomorrow.  My mom has promised lots of good food.  PHEW.  That woman can cook mmmmmm

Phew...theres a lot going on.  I did just FINALLY find the entryway to our house again.  It was buried in laundry.  I'm a big 'just throw it on the floor in the right pile and it will make it to the washer' person, but in the last month or so getting down repeatedly to the floor is hard so we've been throwing our laundry on the entryway bench so I can reach it.  I just found the bench.  It's just as pretty as I remember it.

Anyway I have a toddler begging for some lunch and heck...I'm not too exciting...just waiting to met the newest little person whos going to demand my attention and make me have those stupid mushy moments I hate!  Stupid emotions....they are sooooo overrated.  Will update soon with pictures...either of a baby or a babys room or well who knows.  I promise no boob shots...I can't bring myself to do it!

Ta Ta for now! haha (tata's didn't plan that one)
