We are now 27 days away from our due date with Leaflet #3. I go back and forth between wishing this last month away to wanting it to last forever. I am starting to grieve the current relationships I have with my kids knowing that adding another child will change us all forever. Yes, in a good way, but it will be different. I remember really mourning my alone time with Bergen when I was pregnant with Annika and now I am mourning the fact that Annika won't be our baby anymore. Such a roller coaster or thoughts and emotions. . . which hormones and sleep deprivation probably contribute quite a bit to. I go in on Friday to see the DR for the first of the final round of weekly visits. I am very ready to have Ingrid here with us. . . safe and sound.
The kids have been sharing a room for pretty much the whole month now. It took us a couple weeks to figure out the new routine, but I am happy to say I think we are now all adjusted and the kids are enjoying rooming together. I was expecting something so much worse and really the transition went quite smoothly.
Here we are reading books together. . . although the 3 (should I say 4?) of us no longer fit in the rocking chair together! We now have to read on the sofa!
Here we are at bedtime. . . Auntie Megan was babysitting so Lars and I could get out for a dinner and we can home during bedtime routine. The kids were both in Annika's crib while Megan was reading to them! They were snuggled in together - it was VERY sweet! Annika LOVE when I rub her belly - so that is what I am doing in the video!
Here are the kids playing underneath Bergen's bed. . . they LOVE to build a fort and then will play in there for an hour or so together. . . which in Mom time is like 4 hours!
