Getting Ready for Greta...

We have been busy over here getting ready for Greta's arrival.  Last month at the cabin, Xander and I went for a walk on his birthday and I told him all about the day he was born.  Since there has been so much excitement with learning about pregnancy, babies and anticipating Greta being born I guess it was only natural that his afternoon playdough creation would be of him and his first moments in my arms!

Keegan, my little artist, has also been drawing up a storm.  He's illustrated picture after picture to be hung in Greta's room.  That is on the to-do list for tomorrow!  He is obsessed with spelling words right now and we just crack up at his use of phonetics.  Before I actually sounded out and explained how Greta's name was spelled, this was his first couple of attempts at her name!

 This is going to be one well-protected little girl.  I love all of the knights surrounding her. 

And they aren't the only one's getting ready.  There has been a flurry of laundry (I won't tell you how long it's been since I washed the car seat cover), cleaning, prepping my birth kit and some sewing projects that have kept me busy, busy, busy.

I'm thankful that my sisters have come over a couple of times for sewing afternoons as I needed some motivation to get stuff done, especially repairing old diapers. ugh.  The subsequent projects were far more enjoyable!

Just another week or two (or three).
