Well the weeks are counting down until Reilly's whole world gets turned upside down. The days are ticking for playdates and the pool, and of course the poor thing has to go and get sick this week. She has been sick ALL week with the exception on Tuesday pm and Wednesday am, and has been quarantined. All she wants to do is play with kids and I keep having to cancel playdates because she comes down with something else. She woke up on father's day with a fever, which lasted 2 days, then was up all night with what we think was a sore throat on Monday, then yesterday the awful cough and runny nose. can you say "misery"? If I hear "uppie uppie uppie" one more time I may fall over and die. But we are getting through it. I hope she is healthy by next week so we can get some more pool time in before this baby comes...speaking of which...
We've made some progress this week! We bought a crib (thanks Grammy :), a mattress, a double stroller, a new bathtub, another diaper champ for the nursery, some pacifiers and BPA free bottles, oh and nursing pads (very critical). I have yet to do a load of laundry, but the goal by the end of the weekend is nursery cleaned out, furniture picked up, baby clothes washed, and hospital bag packed. So I am feeling better about baby's arrival.
I had my first internal exam, and you guessed it, nothing going on. Dilated about a fingertip and he said, see you next week and probably the week after that. Poor me. So we are looking at about another 8 1/2 pounder according to the doc, so I think I am going to hold off on washing any newborn size clothes this time!! Not gonna fit! I am feeling okay, just some contractions at night and getting tougher and tougher to chase her, but I didn't gain any weight between my last appointments so that's great. Send some labor vibes please :)
Here are some pics from Father's Day, motrin allowed us enough time to go to lunch and a local dairy farm before the misery set in again :)
