Mother’s Day

My un-official Mother’s Day was awesome. Chad and I spent most of the day putting Cayden’s room together. We now officially have a nursery to bring our baby boy home to! It feels *so* good to have this accomplished. I feel like a giant weight has been lifted off our shoulders.

The room looks amazing. I will probably post some pictures tomorrow. Every time I walk by the room I just have to stop and take a moment to soak it all in. I can’t believe it’s all actually happening. In a month, or less, we will have our baby boy with us.

It took Chad less time to put the crib together than it did for me to take all the clothes and blankets out of their packages and remove the tags. Chad was ready to put the bedding on the crib and I was still snipping tiny tags off all of Cayden’s clothes. In my defense, Cayden has a ton of clothes and Chad is a great handy-man.

I did lots of baby laundry yesterday; practice for the future. It’s so adorable to be folding tiny onesies, bibs, booties and mittens. Cayden has so many clothes, yet they don’t take up that much room. We are all ready for Cayden; now we just have to wait for him to be ready for us.

Chad also took me out to a Mother’s Day dinner. We went to our favorite Italian restaurant in town. I was very indulgent and I got the veggie lasagna. It was delicious and I enjoyed every single last bite of it. And even better for me my blood sugars didn’t shoot through the roof either; they stayed in the normal range.

Perhaps my favorite part of the whole day…Chad gave me a much needed body massage. My body is starting to get a bit achy these days.
