Prepared !?!?!?!?!

SO....I am now 34 weeks along with this pregnancy and this is the time when I had our last daughter. My suitcase is packed, the house is cleaned every day, the sheets have all been washed, the laundry is done and put away every day, the older girls ballet bags are all packed and ready for class, Sadie is potty trained (except poopies), the car seat is in the van. And now we wait. Could she come tomorrow or will I go past my due date? (for my sanity and all that know me....lets pray God lets me go sooner than later). So I seem to be all prepared. Or am I? As I listen to the girls fight over toys and pile one demand on me upon another demand....am I really ready to have the demands of a newborn too? I may be physically prepared but I am also aware of how hard it is going to be to have a 3, 2, 1, and a newborn. (did I mention that girls are great at whining and crying?) Anyways, I simply just can't wait. I am ready to handle the challenges of the four girls and am so excitied to meet this new little one. Please pray that she will be healthy and she will be able to come home with us right away. (maybe toss in your prayer too, that I go before my due date). Molly can't wait to hold the baby and asks everyday if today is the day the doctor is going to take the baby out. I made the girls all big sister t-shirts and the baby a little sister onsie. We are ready for you sweet baby and can't wait to meet you! Please come soon!

On a side note. Molly and Sadie are starting ballet class next week. Molly has taken before, but Sadie is new to the sceen. Class really doesn't start until you are three, but the teacher agreed to try her out (she turns 3 in Feb.) THey both got new ballet shoes and everything else they need to be ballarinas. So just an FYI to all that may have a girl...start saving now. Man these classes are expensive and money is tight...but my girls are taking ballet!!!!!! (am I living through my kids..maybe a little)

I haven't been good at updating, and will try to be bettter....until now....we are waiting to welcome baby girl number 4 to the family!

You are doing so good, Susan! I get tired just thinking of all the organizing you have already done!! And you even found time to keep me and your mom, and probably Pam, too, updated on the blog!!! You and Dan and the girls are always included in my prayers and I will certainly include an early delivery...healthy has already been included. God's peace to all of you as we wait patiently with you! Love, Nana Luci
