AJ is due March 5th.
That's one month, people! (And really, a short month because February only has 28 days).
I've had 2 baby showers now. It's so humbling for people to bless you with money, practical items, cute clothes, and sweet accessories for your baby. We really have almost everything we need. I think tomorrow we're going to make a Target run to pick up last-minute things--we'll probably need to do a Wal-Mart run, too.
I think nesting has FINALLY kicked in. Last night, Charlie was like, "Wow! You have more energy, huh?" Because I've been coming home and vacuuming and washing AJ's clothes and blankets and trying to get everything organized. We're just not very organized and we live in such a small space. We really do love our home, but it's a challenge to keep STUFF under control.
I'm still feeling good--no swelling. No back pain. I can still walk (it's usually not a waddle). I can still get socks and shoes on (and see my feet! :)) AND I'm sleeping. SO that's awesome.
The other day it dawned on me that AJ is going to be my DAUGHTER. We've been calling her our baby, etc, but it sounds so weird to say I have a daughter! So grown-up. Charlie asked me to not say it again :) I think it was weird to him, too.
My mom got Charlie a massive soup pot for Christmas, and this week we made a (completely full) batch of Shrimp and Corn Soup, Cabbage and Chicken Soup, and Chili. I think we put up like 15 containers of food! Yay us! That will be what we're living off of when AJ comes. Especially since no one can really bring us meals. And I really don't want to get glutened with a new-born.
