Saturday loves

I have been so distracted lately, it’s not even funny. All I can
think about is how much time we have until this little guy joins our
family.

Not much. πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚

Nathan
has TOTALLY gotten into the Boxcar Children. He has pretended to be
Henry and asked me to be Jessie all week. And when he hasn’t been the
Boxcar Children, he’s been Peter Pan who, sadly, lost his shadow to that
“codfish Captain Hook”. Love, love his imagination!!

We’ve
been washing blankets and tiny clothes all week!! Love the smell of
fresh baby laundry and love my “helper” who mostly just was wanting to
snuggle in the warm blankets. πŸ˜‰

We
gave Nathan this Big Brother Bear for Christmas and we just received
the other bear for Baby P this week. I’m going to try and have it
embroidered with a little brother saying. Love seeing the two brother
bears together.

Jon
had class one night last week and I told Nathan he could pick something
extra special for us to do for dinner. So he picked a Mommy/Son movie
picnic dinner date. Love my little buddy.

Last
night, one my dearest, dearest childhood friends, Shannon, threw the
cutest family and close friends diaper shower for me. It was SO
wonderful and such a fantastic girls night!! This little boy is spoiled
completely rotten already! I love these women so much – they were the
ones who were completely by my side for everything we went through in
getting to this point today and they’ve been keeping me focused on Jesus
the whole way. Love my friends and family!

We’ve
been doing errands and odds and ends today. This little guy decided to
help me out by doing the dishes. I’m pretty sure more water got on him
and the counter than it did in the actual sink, but it’s the thought
that counts, right? Love his helpful heart. πŸ™‚

  1. That's so wonderful that he is such a great helper!! That is one thing that made the transition to a new baby in the house easier for the older siblings was helping out. If I could give you one thing that will help him adjust is to let him help with anything he can. Getting you a diaper, picking out his outfit, helping burp the baby. That way he will feel like he is really helping you and that he is needed by you and included πŸ™‚
