Weekend update.

Today we went out as a family and bought some craft items for Kaitlyn. Monday was our first day at home since I took my maternity leave, and I felt like we haven't really been doing much with her and felt pretty bad. So we went and bought some paints, construction paper, glue, foam stickers and hats and some other neat things. After her nap we made a visor with her name on it and put some hearts and flowers on it. Then last night we painted a pumpkin after dinner! She had a ton of fun with that, and she even drew a heart on it "punkin". Here are some pictures:

**If you can tell - we bought some batteries and a charger for our camera! No more camera phone pictures! I'm so happy! We're also thinking about getting a camcorder. We've both wanted one for so long and it'll be nice to have one when Lauren gets here so we can keep up with both girls.

Monday is my 39 week 5 day check up. I'm hoping I will go in and my doctor will tell me that it's time, or will be soon! I'm so uncomfortable compared to when I was pregnant with Kaitlyn - Lauren seems to be tugging and stretching out as much as she can. I've been having some contractions too this weekend, but nothing steady. All I know is that I hope I go into labor before Brandon's grandparent's get into town. And tomorrow at my appointment I'm going to let my doctor know that it's starting to get really hard for me to do things. Walking, standing and even sitting is hard on me. I'm very sore. It seems like the only thing that helps is to lay back and keep my legs up. (And let me say that is not the easiest thing with a hyper two year old running around!
