30 Days to Go

My due date is officially one month from today. This is a milestone I've been waiting anxiously for, but now that it's here, it still seems like TOO LONG! However, I was having a lot more braxton-hicks contractions today - and on a few of the contractions, I thought it was possible that they could be real ones. They weren't terribly regular, but I had the back pain and same discomfort I remember with the real contractions. I guess we'll just wait and see.

I am still feeling fairly crummy but I'm bored to death with sitting around... SO despite my body's objections, I did a little housework and laundry today and also made Chocolate Chunk Brownies! They were excellent.  Yum! :) I also tried out knitting a new style of hat for Owen. I'm really happy with how it turned out. I think I'll use it for his newborn photos.

My favorite moments of the day today:
-Watching Caleb play his new Leap Frog video game that Santa brought him. I love seeing him so happy.
-After Caleb got a bath and was in fresh pj's, we sat at the table and shared a brownie. It was one of those moments where I wish I could freeze time. <3
-While Caleb was napping, I sat for a few minutes and watched my stomach move and take on alien-like shapes while Owen moved around. You would think you get used to that and the "wow factor" would wear off, but it really doesn't. It still amazes me.

Lastly, happy birthday today to our nephew Logan. He turned FIVE! I can't believe it! Time really does fly.
