Last Day of Summer

Today is Claire's last day of summer, well before she starts school. This was our last week day to eat Chicfila together for lunch (at least until Christmas break), her last day to take short naps on the couch while watching Spongebob or play outside in the afternoon while Owen naps. She is officially going to grow up and mature so much over the next few weeks and she will really never be the same. She is entering a world of so much responsibility and change, I can hardly believe it!! We are so proud of her!! Owen is not going to know what in the world is going on without his big sister around to torment =).

I did drag them out of bed early this morning to go to Nonna's so I could go to my pre-op appt at the hospital (that is a post in itself, appt at 8:30, did not leave until after 10am and they did not have the right date, time, etc for my c section, and I think I learned probably more than I needed about c sections =))...so this is what they are choosing to do this afternoon......just laying around hopefully taking a nap =)!! I know that is what this tired Mama wants to do...you would to if you were carrying this watermelon =)!

I am so worn out and am counting the hours until Friday at 9am! Shane has been such a huge help! He took the kids to the driving range last night (apparently Claire has quite the swing and you know Owen has a blast there) so I could have some peace to rest. Tonight he is doing some grocery shopping for us before the baby comes. I don't know what I would do without him. All while I am beyond exhausted, he has been getting the kids down and bathed every night early so Claire is prepared for school nights, all by himself. On top of everything, he is swamped with work to get ahead to take off all next week to be home the first week Bree is home. Love this man so much!!!!

Tomorrow we will have first day of school pictures!! Time is just flying by!!! Happy Tuesday!!!! T minus 2 days, 20 hours, 30 minutes.....=)
