Good News!

I had an appointment with Dr. Winkelmann yesterday. I mentioned to her that Will joined us early (37 weeks, 2 days), and was that an indication that maybe Scott would too?? I knew that her answer would be no, but after she said no, I told her there was no way I could make it to 40 weeks with this baby! She then said, "Oh, I'm not letting you go that far, we will induce...." So, I know that this little guy will at least get to join us by 39 weeks, which happens to be my birthday week! What a great 30th birthday present that would be, although I certainly would not mind if he came sooner! So, we know that in at least 7 weeks we will be a family of 4! I am so excited to meet Scott, and so are Daddy and Will.
His room is almost ready (ready enough for him, things not on the walls yet), his closet is organized, and Mommy is more than ready for this pregnancy to come to an end ... it is hot, I am big.
Will is so ready for his baby to get here. He refers to Scott as, "my baby", it is so sweet. He is so good with babies I know he is going to be a wonderful big brother and such a great helper to me. I have decided while I am on maternity leave he is going to be home with me a couple days a week. I want my alone time with Scott, but I also want Will to have that bonding time with his little brother.

In recent Will news, I was working with him the other morning on his letters and we decided to practice his name....

Let me tell you I am a proud Mommy!! He is identifying many of his letters, and we practice them on almost a daily basis. He is such a smart boy.

I just love this picture...he was hanging in bed with Mommy before bedtime.
