40 More days until my due date!!! I can't wait to meet this baby! I love feeling him kick. It's the best part of my day. I love talking to him while i drive to and from work. I love seeing braydon's face when he gets to feel him kick his hand. It's a priceless moment. It's going to change our whole life and I just keep thinking when he comes how did we ever survive without him? I feel so lucky and grateful that I get the opportunity to be a mom! I have wanted to be a mom my whole life. It is just what some people were meant to do and some were meant to do something else. I am so thankful for my parents and i'm so excited to watch them be grandparents. They will be so great and so helpful and i'm so lucky to have that. I am excited for my sibling I just wish that they would have babies soon, but no such luck maybe by my third child they will start to have kids. My dad just had knee surgery and will eventually have to totally replace both knees and i'm so thankful that he is doing ok. My brother ben started working with me after school and it is so much fun having him there. He is just so hilarious and it's pretty funny to watch him interact with people he doesn't know. He is a lot more shy then i am. Em is dating someone pretty serious and I like him a lot... i'm sure they are wedding bound, but I am apparently not supposed to say that so you didn't hear it from me!!! :)
Thanksgiving is such a great holiday, but for my little family it's some what bitter sweet. 7 years ago today we said our goodbyes and it just seems like yesterday. And i'm so grateful for the time we got to spend together even if some times were a little more rough then others. I still wonder when you will drive in the driveway and come home... silly thoughts i know. I'm so thankful that you are a part of our family and that we get forever with you and sarah. I'm so thankful that we know that we will see you again. How sad is it for people who dont know that. Well, I know how everyone is so sick of my blog pitty parties, but i hope you all have such a beautiful and happy thanksgiving.

Help!!!

So I need all the advice I can get from all the mommies out there... what is the most needed and wanted items, any advice for me as i'm approaching the due date sooner and sooner... I just want to get all the advice I can. I know i'm a little weird. Oh and side note I am loving the Christmas music and the girls at work are going crazy because I sing it all day. They won't let me play it so during my lunch hour I sing to it on my i pod. I am so excited for christmas not just because i love it so much, but because my baby will be here right after. I wish he could be here for all the holiday fun, but it didn't work out that way.
So my cute cousins Heather and Missy threw me my family baby shower!! It was so fun. I got the most darling gifts and it was so fun to get together. I stole this from missy's blog so you can see a few of the cute things I was able to get. My grandmother was so kind to let us use her house. This is making me more and more excited to meet my little man. I love presents, but for some reason I love baby boy presents for him then I do for my self. Thanks Heather and miss!!! I loved it so much and am so grateful for you both.
