My mom arrives this afternoon and now that my maternity leave is in full bloom, I'm getting anxious to have this baby and feel like I need to do some preparation. This morning I started packing my hospital bag errr Google backpack and put in a change of clothes for me, one for baby 2, my iPod speakers, batteries (that I lifted from Google last Friday) books to read, cell phone charger, make-up, shampoo etc etc. two blankets (one for me Google black one, and one for baby).
I also went online and did my birth plan for the hospital. It was actually cool, the websites think up all the questions for me. I selected the ones that met my needs to most and I get an e-mail with everything that I can print out - PURRRFECT. Mom arrived and we immediately got to packing. I love that she wastes no time at all. We went over to my new apt, got all the boxes under my bed and wheeled them over AND found more along the way.
Gratitude Day Three
- My mother! flying up to help me pack and move, she's a gem and I
love her dearly
- Dante asking me if Grandma is going to pack his trains and cars with
worried eyes as he drifted off to sleep
- Having a dance party to Annie Lennox with Dante and his tiger and white horse
- Dante putting bubbles on my face in the bathtub and I blowing them
off my face into his face. he then stuck his head under the faucet to
get them off :-)
- Two squirrels eating nuts on either side of mom and I as we walked
out of Sty Town - they were so serious it's as if we were passing
through an invisible line they controlled
- Running into Christina DiNucci outside my new apt, who said I looked
radiant and was real happy to see me.
