crystal's little corner

So, it's officially baby week in the MacDonald household.  Alex is over the top excited about 3 things - 1. Getting a baby 2. Spending a couple of nights with his Nana & Papa while Mommy's in the hospital 3. Getting his Uncle Adam to come visit Good thing we've got a few things to keep us entertained over the next couple of days.  Swimming lessons start today, then a haircut for Magoo, a pre-baby BBQ with my SIL & her family, and a baby appointment, soccer & more swimming on Wednesday.  That is, if this baby belly of mine stays put until Thursday which is induction day. I've been having some pretty steady contractions over the last few days but no other signs that anything is imminent.. so I'm pretty sure Thursdays' gonna be the day. I can't believe how quick the time has gone.  I've tried to enjoy every minute of this pregnancy, because I know it's my last - but the back aches, sore belly & barfiness will not be missed.

i also forgot to mention that i've become a bit of a crazy person when it comes to taking pics of my handsome son and random things around the yard... because i'm home on mat leave awaiting baby, you may end up seeing a few totally obscure shots.  fair warning. xo

really not much of excitement has happened in our world for the last couple of months, but things are about to get a whole lot more interesting.. we are down to NINE days until baby.. :) we had asked the OB/GYN if there was any chance of giving me a scheduled induction date since my due date for this little busy body in my belly is exactly the day that we got admitted to the hospital last summer.  she agreed that it was not an unreasonable request and scheduled us for june 30th. things are also about to get busy for my busy boy - summer soccer, swimming lessons, and a few other things on the horizon, not to mention becoming a big brother FINALLY and starting school. :) life seems to be on an the rainbow side of things.. let's hope they stay that way.
