Ok, so I've gotten D's Big Brother bag pretty much done. All I am missing is a pair of brand new pj's for his overnight at gramma's house. Here it is:
All together
He loves Cars, so there's a Cars notebook, Cars stickers, and scented markers...
travel size bath stuff, and a handmade lavender scented rice pillow. It's long so it can go around his neck, and that is supposed to be shaped like a horse lol...
A big brother long-sleeved shirt, a disposable camera so he can take pics of the new baby, or his time at Gramma's, or whatever, and The New Baby by Mercer Mayer

So as I get closer and closer to my due date, I am getting both excited, and a little sad. I am so excited to meet the new baby, but I am a little sad to lose D as my only child. For 4 years he has been my one and only. I love him more than anything else in the world. I know I will love the new baby just as much, but I feel sad that I won't be able to give D all my attention anymore. He has always been my snuggle butt. I love cuddling up to him, and giving him all my attention and love. After not having another one for 4 years, I was starting to just deal with the fact that I couldn't have anymore. I was starting to be content with being a mommy of an only child. Now we are having another, and I am so happy, but it's a big change to how I was staring to think life was going to go. I plan to spend the next 12 weeks helping D to understand what a new brother means, and to spend as much time with him as possible. Ok, now I am done rambling. PS I am really freaking tired lol Don't judge me. :)
So before I even fill out the survey, I'd like to apologize for the pic. Believe it or not, that is not a dirty bathroom mirror, my mirror is clean. I apparently really need to clean my camera lens :P
