It's official - we have reached the NINE MONTHS milestone :) Now that the big day is getting closer and closer, the realities of parenthood are starting to hit home. I am relishing these lazy Fall days with the dogs - sleeping in, going for long walks, trips to the dog beach and the park, snuggling on the couch while watching all my favorite reruns... pretty soon, Gus and Pocket are going to have to take the back seat to being my "babies", so I'm spoiling them as much as possible while I still can.
We've been receiving lots of gifts lately both in person and in the mail, and everyone's generosity is greatly appreciated :) We have most of what we'll need for the first few weeks. Now all we need is for Sammy to finally get here!
During the 8th month, I was very anxious for Sammy to be born, and hoped that he would arrive as soon as we hit 37 weeks. Now that 37 weeks is only a matter of days away, I'm in much less of a hurry to wish away these last precious weeks left, as I am starting to realize that our lives will be changed forever, and this is the last time it'll just be Scott and I in the house. It's been nice just being a couple - just the two of us - too bad we only had a little over a year to enjoy it!
But anyway, November is quickly approaching, and we couldn't be happier as we make the final preparations to welcome little Sammy into our lives. Less than 30 days to go!
Oh yeah, and GO CARDINALS!
