This week has been pretty good! A couple big things... the spare bedroom is switched over now so baby boy officially has his own room! I got all of Adie's closet cleaned out to figure out what baby stuff was still in there - a lot! I got everything moved to his room and got his closet all cleaned out. Mark got the shelving unit in the closet all fixed up and I loaded it today, then carpet cleaners came. His room is ready! I had a bit of a breakdown the other day when I cleaned out Adie's closet though. I did really well going through all of the baby stuff and then I cleaned off the changing table and thought to myself that I'd just take it over to the nursery. When it came to moving it though, I lost it. Adie was so sweet though - she came up and asked what was wrong and I said, "nothing honey, you're just getting so big - you're not a little baby anymore..." and she gave me the sweetest little hug and said, "oh mommy - it's ok. Let's go get ready...that will make you feel better!" I truly don't wish her to be a baby again and in spite of each seasons "challenges" I an honestly say that I am enjoying each and every stage she's been in - we have a great time! It's just hard to sit and look back seeing that time really does fly by.
This week we also decided that while we don't want to announce the name yet, we decided to tell my parents. Mark and I kept talking with them about things and over the course of a couple days we each almost slipped a couple times. We had Adie tell them the name...and when she did it was "Jaffy ---" as if it's actually a middle name and she still gets to name him Jaffy!
Think that's about it for this week. Things are getting settled around here. In the next couple weeks we'll be transitioning Adie to her big girl bed and getting the crib put into the nursery. Again I'm sure I'll have a bit of a struggle with that change, but I know it's all part of her growing up and it's just reminding me to cherish the small little moments :)
