we have entered the final countown! with any luck {ahem, ben. body. i'm talking to you!} we'll be having a baby this thursday via induction. that is, of course, if he {hint hint, benjamin} doesn't come before on his own. if he's anything like his sister.....and his dad...OK fine, and his mom too....he's stubborn. so, i'm sort of mentally prepared for thursday at the earliest. and i'm sort of at a loss for words.
this weekend we soaked up what was probably our last weekend as parents of one. and emma's last weekend as an only child. i am filled with a wealth of emotions that i can't even begin to describe....so i won't even try. we had an impromptu garage sale, we had brunch with friends....to which emma inSISted on wearing her bike helmet, got pedicures with grandma, and took bike rides which left emma squealing "more! more! more!". it's hard to imagine what we'll be doing NEXT weekend! ;)

| pedicure time!! |
little ben, i cannot wait to hold you in my arms and kiss your sweet face. i can't wait for you to meet the strong, caring, and selfless man you will grow to call daddy. i can't wait for you to meet the sparkle of light and joy you will know as your sister. and while now i'll have to share you with everyone else...i can't wait to love you to pieces.
and my sweet emma, i love you
more than life itself. there are big changes ahead and i know you are going to be the best big sister in the world. you are so beautiful inside and out and you make daddy and me happier and more proud than you could ever know. you are the magical little soul who first taught me about a mothers love and i will always ALWAYS be here for you. through the smiles, the laughs, the tears, the tantrums, and beyond. no matter what. mommy loves you to the moon and back....and always will.
