35 and 5

Well,
Tomorrow is my "baby's" 5th birthday. 5 years ago tonight, I was sent home from the hospital because my contractions had weakened. I remember coming home that night thinking it was a "false alarm" only to be awakened 2 hours after I went to bed because I was in excruciating pain! Oh, how time flies. My girl is now a bright, funny, cheerful 5 year old little girl. She's not an infant or toddler but a little girl! It's crazy to think that in less than 2 months she'll be in kindergarden. CRAZY!!!!!!

The boy should be here soon. I've been having some cramping during the day and I know he's nestled into my pelvic region. I highly, highly doubt that I will even make it to July. Even if I were to make it to July, I've only got 5 weeks left......WHAT??!!!!! Wow.......that is just crazy. In just 5 ( or less) short weeks...I'll be the mother of 2! I spent today washing the boy's clothes in dreft.....it's so strange how everything looks so tiny! I'm so used to my girlie girls "big" clothes that all those newborn outfits look like they could fit on one of her baby dolls!

Hubby has been doing well. He seems to be back on the straight and narrow again and is looking forward to meeting his son.

That's it for now. I've got to finish decorating for my "baby's" party tomorrow and I need to wrap her gifts. But, I can still hear her in there ( I know....she's just too darn excited to be turning 5) so, the gifts will probably have to wait til' the morning!

I'll try to be better about updating!
