Phew!

Phew! What a busy 2 weeks!!! SOOOO thankful to be done (almost... one final on Monday) with school! And even more thankful to have some time to spend with my boys :). It doesn't look like baby sister is going to be making her debut when big brother did. If so, I would have had a day full of laboring today and we would be headed to the hospital in two hours. How did 38 weeks get here so quickly? We're more than excited to meet this sweet girl and squeeze and kiss her :). I'm not quite sure how you "prepare" a 2-yr-old for such a life changing experience... I'm not sure anyone does, but we're working on how he can be a "big help." Here's hoping that helps with the transition at least a little :).

Did I tell you that our sweet boy has been sleeping through the night for almost 2 and a half weeks... consistently!!?!!!!!! What a blessing! That sure will help when we bring baby sister home! We are so thankful! This is the first time, ever, and we feel like we've won the lottery! :)

Also, I want to thank everyone for their encouragement these last few weeks!!! It has meant so much!

Only one more test to go, yay! And then on to meeting li'l Miss Sowards. I can't wait! Looking forward to seeing your growing family very soon :) I'm sure Will will be a wonderful big brother and helper. So glad to hear his busy mommy has been able to get some good sleep the past couple weeks! She no doubt needs it for all these crazy exams and the weeks ahead!
