Mark's Birthday

Last week we celebrated Mark's birthday. He took the day off so it was very special. We were able to sleep in a bit (7:30) and then I made him his favorite breakfast, french toast. He opened gifts and then we pretty much spent the day relaxing. Mark worked on his model airplane that he started shortly after Christmas, the kids played outside and I just puttered around doing laundry, surfing the internet and generally having a nice easy day.

The end is in sight!

We are finally all ready for the baby's birth! We are having a home birth and are hoping for a water birth. We got the pool all aired up last night and picked up a faucet adapter so we can hook up a garden hose to the kitchen faucet. We got out the basinet and got that set up. I put together the box of birth supplies (towels, washcloths, large plastic sheets, etc.) so now all we have to do is wait for this little one to be born! :-) The due date is January 30 and we are all starting to get a little anxious. The kids keep asking when the baby will be born...
