Finally...

I feel like life has been crazy busy the past couple of weeks but not the "hey, let me tell you about all about it because it's been so fun" busy. It's been the mundane getting the house together, etc. busy. Althought it does seem as if Baby Elle will be making an appearance sooner than her due date. And I am not complaining about that :)! I went to the doctor yesterday and all of us were shocked at how much progress I had made since six days before. Basically, all I need are contractions and I will be considered in active labor. I'm trying very hard not to get my hopes up that she'll be here soon because labor is just so darn unpredictable! I could still go another week or more! However, if I'm going on Sophie's mood I would say that this baby will be here in a couple of days. Bless her heart, she is out of sorts! She has been especially clingy - she's always a Momma's girl, but it has been extreme lately! She wouldn't even go to "her" Nanny, as she likes to call my mother, last night because she wanted me. That was huge. She always goes to her Nanny!! I think she is picking up that her little life is about to change in a BIG way! Even more so than it already has! Oh, she has been such a trooper through all of these changes! I hate that she has had so many changes all at once, but that is life! I have tried to show her that sometimes life throws your some curveballs and all you can do is make the best of it. I haven't been the perfect example in this, but that is part of the process as well.

Sophie has been such an absolute hoot lately!! The things she comes up with are hilarious! She's just so much fun to be around and a part of me is a little sad that our time of it being just us is almost over! It has been an adjustment being in Kentucky and having people fighting to see Sophie. (Not really fighting, but stopping by, asking to watch her, etc.) Although, it is a welcomed change it has taken some getting use to! In Plant City, it was just Sophie and I. A lot of weeks Joe wouldn't even see her until the weekend because by the time he got home from work or school she would be in bed. So she was literally my constant companion! Please don't get me wrong, I am LOVING having family around and their help has been such a blessing! All I'm saying is that it took some adjusting to not having to do everything on my own.

At the rate I'm going I'm sure the next post I do will be announcing Ellie Faye :)!
