27 Weeks

Hooray for this week!

We had a great Christmas and Adam's been off all week.

Not sure if I mentioned this before,

but last week,

or maybe the week before...

or maybe this week...

anyway...

one morning

I woke up and didn't think Elijah was up yet.

He then comes running into the bathroom to tell me

he was playing on the computer and with the camera.

I went into the office and sure enough.

The computer had all kinds of menus up

and there was the camera.

Below are a couple of the 20+ pictures of evidence:

We've been staying busy this week

by getting Reese's room ready.

Ok.

Not ready but working on transitioning it from an office

to a nursery.

Step one: get everything out.

That's what we've really been working on.

But in between going through the millions of papers/notebooks/school books

and finding places for all the furniture,

we've managed to squeeze in lots of fun.

Mom got us year passes for the Science Center

so we went and enjoyed that for a bit this week.

My boys loved it :

Not only did E get insanely adorable Buzz Lightyear pajamas,

that, paired with his Buzz wings made for super cute photo ops,

BUT

we also got him Woody pajamas.

Pair that with his new rocking horse

and we were just soaking in the cuteness this week.

He had a hat too,

but took it off before we could snap the pics.

Today we went to Busch Gardens

(Thank you Robbie!).

We haven't been since Elijah's birthday last year

and loved seeing all the animals!

Elijah's favorite part?

Why the train,

of course!

Our little one was POOPED by the afternoon.

One of my most favorite things of the moment:

my babe in blue jeans and bare feet

And here we are

27 weeks along

3 months from yesterday.

12 weeks and 5 days.

1 trimester.

That's all we've got left until our little Reese arrives!

Although we still have some time to go,

Adam is starting to panic that she might come early.

Like any second now.

It's so funny and so very sweet.

The other night he went to dinner with his 2nd family (the Baers)

and when he came home learned that I was having some back pain.

Nothing alarming.

I think it was sciatica or something.

Just a sharp pain in my lower back.

I've had it before and was really not worried,

just resting it.

But Adam was so concerned.

"Should we call the Dr?"

"Do we need to go to the hospital?"
"Is it labor pains?"

:)

No dear. I'm fine. I promise.

Again today,

different circumstances, same line of questioning.

Like I said, super sweet.

I'm not sure where this fear of his is coming from.

Elijah was right on time

and we have no reason to believe this one will be any different.

I think what energy was before used up for school,

is now being focused on me and baby Reese.

I'm not complaining.

Pure sweetness.

Looking forward to the weekend,

changing years

and eating up all the time I have with my two handsomes.
