Take a look it's in a book . . .


Well here is an idea of what has been keeping me busy for the past little while. And I already finished three and returned them to the library! The crazy/wonderful/scary/exciting thing is that the little one is due in less than two weeks. Wow, we can't wait.

It is funny how many people ask us if we are sure we are ready for a kid. Ahhh, YEP! Hello, we have been ready and waiting forever. Seriously though, I can't believe that we are finally going to be parents. I am sure all soon to be parents go through this process, but we feel such a responsibility to be the best parents we can be. I want so badly to give this little one the world. I feel like we also have an additional responsibility to Shiloh to give him everything she hoped for him. Talk about overwhelming.

I am looking for everyone's real world parenting tips. We are going to be in a hotel room for the first couple of weeks most likely, for some reason that makes me even more nervous. I can't call my mom and have her run down, ya know. Anyway, what advice do you have on newborns.

I have been practicing a bit, my 2 & 3 year old nephews have thoroughly enjoyed being my swaddling ginnie pigs, they think it is the funniest thing. :)
