Thank goodness for my MIL and sister! They were a lifesaver today and helped me figure out the car seat & stroller (seriously it is not that easy). Then the three of us (OK, really it was mostly the two of them) put together the Pack n' Play. Now our PNP has a changing table and a bassinet, but they still say it is good for travel (yeah right). It was a comedy show watching us put this thing together. The guys (Chris, my FIL, and Brianne's friend Tom were watching football and found us even more entertaining then the games). Well I am happy to say we figured it out and is set-up and ready for the baby. Chris installed the car seats yesterday. Tonight we might attempt the swing. The nursery is done and I put away the clothes, I am hoping to bring up a bunch more stuff tonight and clear out downstairs. I also plan to pack up the hospital bag.
Yesterday, my step-mom (soon to be better known as Gammi) hosted a high tea for me at the Garden City Hotel. It was soo nice! She did such a wonderful job, I loved the individual floral arrangements (the colors were perfect).
Everything was beautiful and tea was a lot of fun. Everyone was so generous and we received some wonderful gifts including two special gifts from my dad & step-mom: they have set-up an education fund for the baby and commissioned an artist to do a watercolor of the baby and I.
Last night I thought this might be it. I had contractions again and they lasted a few hours. They were pretty intense. I was able to fall asleep, but twice they woke me up. Eventually they went away, but for the first time I also had a dream I was in labor and the baby was born. I guess it can be any day now and I am getting anxious.
