A Well-Timed Kick

Kreg was a tad stressed this past Sunday. I think he's feeling the pressures of becoming a daddy to triplets and the preparation for their arrival can be daunting. Well, later that night I felt baby boy "B" kicking ... A LOT. It was stronger than usual and I called Kreg over to feel my belly. Kreg put his hand where baby boy "B" is and felt the kick of one of his babies for the first time. It was exciting and so well-timed. Thanks "B".

Baby Shower

This past weekend my family threw a baby shower for us. It was wonderful. It was great to see so many faces of friends and family and to celebrate the pending arrival of these three babies. I don't have very good pictures of the shower yet, but here are the centerpieces that Steph & Vanessa put together. So sweet!

Thanks Mom, Lita, Laura, Steph & Nessa for going above and beyond to make Saturday so special. Also thanks to all of the guests -- it's amazing how generous everyone has been. Hugs!

Wrapping Up Work

It's countdown at work and I have 1 week and 3 days left. Basically, I won't be returning after Thanksgiving and will be on disability at home. What a bizarre concept for me to get my head around. I enjoy running at full throttle, but suppose this will force me to slow down and make sure these babies stay in there as long as possible. I should enjoy the "rest" since chaos is just around the corner.

Fur Baby

Something tells me that Cleo is going to get confused when the three little ones show up. She already thinks the new comfy additions to the house are for her.

Getting There...

We're slowly getting the nursery pulled together. Kreg hung the curtains that I hemmed this weekend and Vanessa and Mike built a crib on Saturday night. It's coming together!

Retro Love

I just love these retro wooden lamps for the nursery. "Noah's Ark" is from when I was a child, the "Toy Soldier" is something I picked up at an antique shop a few years ago, and "The Parade of 3" is a lamp my dear friend Stephie just gave me from when she was little. ps- I made up the names

Nesting

I assume we're nesting since there's been major activity in the house. The biggest change was putting in new carpeting for the upstairs. What a difference! Here are some pics of Kreg and the grandparents hard at work ripping up the old to make way for the new.
