a little bit of everything

**get ready for some REALLY bad cell phone pictures!**

i've spent the past week preparing for baby. i'll be full term in a few days and i would really like everything to be done before i hit that 37 week mark...you know...just in case he decides to make an early appearance :) at 35 weeks i was 1 cm dialated and 50% effaced...and that was just after having a few days of lower back pressure and minor cramping. i've had a LOT more since and i have been so busy on my feet, too. its been gorgeous outside so almost everyday harp and i take long walks (harp-bike ride) around the cul-de-sac/surrounding cul-de-sacs. 

anyways, lets get to the cruddy cell pics. i spent the beginning of last week organizing all of my babyshower gifts! the closet is pretty packed and if you could look closely, we received around 10 boxes of diapers and 22 wipes/wipe refills!

extra baby supplies 

i've also done some minor rearranging to prepare...we have the swing set up and ready to go in our living room and a cabinet in the kitchen cleared out for bottles, etc.

last saturday we got quite a bit accomplished! we spent the morning just being with the boys-our time as a four-person family is quickly fleeting and we want to get as much time in with them as possible. we went to our little town park where kane taught carson some tricks on his skateboard while harp and i rode the town on his bicycle!

we also went to target to get new bedding for the boys room (oh yeah, have i mentioned i've also taken on the task of redecorating the boys' room?! they are getting new furniture/beds this coming weekend!). we also got them new thinner booster seats that will allow us to fit the infant carseat comfortably between them.

along with working on the boys' room, i'll also be finishing up the nursery. i have everything up and organized, but now i'll be working more on the "decorating" aspect of it all :)

one last thing: i'm taking harper to the doctor tomorrow-he's had a bad cough for quite a while now that he just cannot seem to shake. it's actually gotten worse. i'm thinking they are going to say he has asthma (i had allergy-related asthma when i was in elementary school), but hopefully we will get down the bottom of it! if you remember, please keep him in your prayers!
