So blessed

This weekend my mom's best friend gave me a baby shower. And last weekend a friend gave me a shower. They were so much fun and I truly am blessed. She went so above and beyond. We are ready for our little one to arrive. We have so many clothes, blankets and even diapers now. I have also been able to get everything washed and put away. Now I just need to sit down and decide what to bring her home in. The doctor told me that walking would help encourage her to move down to I walked to my shower. (my mom brought me and all our goodies home) Then today Brayden had to go to the doctor because he has been sick for far to long and yes we now were able to get something to get him better. He had a double ear infection. Which I know it sounds terrible but I was thankful. Now at least we were given something to help him get better. The last couple of visits were just keep giving him his breathing medicine. (Which just made him cough harder) So, at least now we hopefully will be on the mend. Brayden is such a trouper though. Even with a fever and double ear infection he just keeps smiling and going. Now, mind you that being said, he doesn't like it when I am not right there. My mom came with us and after the appointment we went to Costco to fill the RX and while I was standing in line she started to push the cart away and he did not like that. So, he is getting a little spoiled right now but we can work on that when he feels better.
So, again I can't say it enough. Thank you to friends and family who truly have blessed us by getting our nursery stocked with stuff for our little one.

Life update

Ever since our scare we have been making sure everything is ready to go. I packed our hospital bag and was able to get Brayden and my haircut. (something that didn't happen before Brayden) I have had one shower and am getting another one tomorrow. People are so generous. I have been going to the doctor weekly now and today she said all is well. Her head is down and so now it is pretty much when ever. She said if I walk more that may help. So, I may just try that. We have also been sick. My ribs hurt so much from coughing. We have finally got Brayden doing better. He was so sick last week and I think that is why I got it. When I get overly tired I tend to get sick right away. But we have just stayed home this week and worked on getting better. Other than that I am just doing as many fun things with Brayden as I can. We play a lot and do crafts. We had fun baking cookies for valentine's day and we also made some valentine's for his friends. So, it has been a nice time. I want to enjoy every minute before he isn't my one and only. He is excited about Riley which I am glad about. He says he is going to help put bows in her hair so that is fun. I just hope he finds it all so exciting when she comes out.
