Aunt Bare In The House!

Celebratory breakfast! Aunt Bare made it to our house! She drove through the day on Saturday August 5, 2012 to come be with us (and because mommy was having contractions and was worried the baby would come a few days earlier than planned.) So, we had a big 'ole breakfast to celebrate Mary driving all by herself from Illinois. 13 .5 hours in the car. Charlotte loved her chocolate pancakes, bacon, scrambled eggs, and tator tots.

After breakfast, we did some much needed yardwork. 

That, my friends, is our hill. That is our backyard. At the top of the hill is half of our yard...in a heavily wooded area. Alex needed to trim the bushes. They were a bit nuts.

That was a weed. Our yard was out of control.

Charlotte was so helpful! She loved being right in the middle of everything. She is rocking her new dress that Aunt Bare brought her. It's from the clearance rack at Walmart. So cute.

One of our last family pictures of three. Don't be hating, I look plain gorgeous in my preggo get up :)

Naptime on the morning of August 6th. Charlotte loves her Aunt Bare

This kid is crazy!

Photoshoot on the couch...

Aunt Bare is SOOOO FUNNY.

Side pony tails are still in.

Love that grin :)

I love how she is looking at Mary in this one. It's like she is idolizing her. And look at Mary, why wouldn't you idolize that???

I love that "cheese" face!

48 hours from now, we will have another little baby!!!

I spent Monday August 6th running errands and finishing getting ready for baby. Mary stayed at the house with Charlotte while I ran some of the errands. The hospital I am delivering at has a Pampered Pregnancy Program and one of the perks is getting a free prenatal massage. So, I cashed that in :) It was a fabulous 30 minutes!
We are so very thankful that Mary came early. The stress level in our house went from extremely high down to nothing. Now, if baby Bean tries to come before scheduled, we are ready!
