babywatch

if we thought we were ready last week... we're beyond ready this week! tomorrow is my due date & at this point with lucy jane, she was 6 days old & we were settling in at home. i never thought i'd go this far after having had a spontaneous water break at 39 weeks last time around- it's been a LONG week of waiting & wondering when! such an exciting time :) i so missed being pregnant after i delivered lucy, so i really am taking in every last hiccup and roll that i'm so lucky to get to feel. 

i'll get induced next tuesday, june 3rd at 41 weeks at the latest- but so hoping to go naturally before then! no impending labor signs, but i will say it's been really nice to have these extra days soaking up sweet lucy, and getting great sleeps at  night! i'm sleeping pretty darn well all things considered- i think i'm just so worn out at the end of each day chasing my 20 month old, that i just crash come 9:00!

to keep busy this past week, jon took lucy on a daddy/daughter date for lunch and shopping :)

and put our old moving boxes to great use by fort building in the basement...

we've had some hot days for backyard water play [and simultaneous snack sharing with charlie]

lucy turned 20 months on sunday- such a sweet peach 

and auntie amy and tasman spent the weekend in town- we were sure they'd get to meet the baby when the trip was booked a few weeks ago! 

lucy surely has some new tricks up her sleeve after spending the past 4 days observing her big wild cousin :)

lucy's been doing the baby dance :) she actually has been asking about her sister- pointing to the baby's cradle and swing and saying her name. i can't wait for them to meet for the first time :)

39 weeks, 3 days in this picture- now 3 days more pregnant than that. there's just not much more room to expand...

hoping to update with some baby news soon!
