Final Countdown

36 Weeks

We are just a few days out from meeting our second baby boy.  This pregnancy has really flown by and has been completely different from my first.  It's amazing that no matter how uncomfortable it gets, it never takes away the excitement of meeting our baby.

Even more exciting is how Huston totally understands that there is a baby in there.  We really didn't think he would understand it all, but he talks about (and to) his baby brother all of the time.  By the questions that he asks, you can tell that he does realize it is a baby that will be coming.  He went with me to a doctor appointment the other day and there was a poster up with the mom and fetus and he saw all the details and said "Is that baby Nolan?"  Now he points out where his eyes and his booty is on my belly.  As the crib, clothes and new toys showed up in his room he just says "Are those Nolan's?" and doesn't seem to be too worried about sharing a room.  He even clapped when he saw the carseat was installed.  Let's just hope this continues after he is really here!

Doug and I like to talk about the boys all of the time and wonder which one will be which personality and what their relationship will be like, of course it is all just guesswork right now, but what we do know is that we are absolutely blessed that we have added one more to our family and can't wait for him to be here with us!
