Wow! What a fantastic weekend we had. In fact, I told Kevin just last night that Saturday was one of the best days I have ever had. No joke. I just feel so lucky to have wonderful friends and family, a healthy daughter and son, a beautiful roof over our head, good jobs...call it preggo hormones if you'd like, but LIFE IS GOOD. First, Lynsey came to visit us from San Diego on Friday. We had fun just hanging out and relaxing. Later that afternoon, Grandma Kerry and Grandpa Jerry joined us. Saturday, Great Grandma Bonnie and Great Grandpa Jerry arrived and us ladies attended the most wonderful baby "sprinkle" thrown by Jenn and Angela. We received more gifts than we could ever possibly need. Totally spoiled. Meanwhile, the men put the baby's crib together and got the furniture set up in the new nursery. Overlay the entire weekend in rare Portland Spring sunshine and our weekend was complete. We were extremely sad to see everyone leave on Sunday, but it was probably for the best since Rynnie and I both came down with bad colds Sunday evening. 35 weeks pregnant with a cold = torture. Still, I started organizing the new baby's room this afternoon and reality hit me hard. In just a few short weeks we will be responsible for another person's life. Two children to feed. Two children to put to sleep every night. Obviously we are thrilled and are going nuts with excitement waiting for the little dude to arrive; but of course we are a little nervous too. I mean, how does one even stay dry while changing a diaper that contains a penis anyways???
