The big news this week is…no news! It was a pretty normal week and there is nothing to report with the pregnancy. 37 weeks –
I did wash and put away all of our son’s clothes, as well as assemble the swing and bassinet. I even packed our hospital bag! I guess that means we are ready.

The girls

Mariel tested out the swing with Ballerina dolly and it worked great. She wanted to get in a few times, but I think she understands that it belongs to “baby broder!”

Giana practiced her big sister skills this week by helping me in the kitchen and putting her puzzle together without any help. Both of these moments were very exciting for her.

Since I am keeping central time hours for work, I have been enjoying extra time in the afternoons with the girls. Rafa has extra time with them in the mornings since he doesn’t have to leave quite as early as he used to. We are getting into a rhythm and it’s nice…and soon to be disrupted, I know!

And guess what? It is finally raining! We haven’t had a real rainfall since we moved here. Now to go stand on the deck and enjoy our first Seattle rain 🙂
