The weather has been crazy here; right now it's hailing outside. We've probably had the amount of rain that So Cal usually has in a year just within this one week. However, we're enjoying the cooler weather and the reminder of what normal weather in our home states feels like.
We're counting down the days now for the arrival of our little one; Jonah has two full work weeks left and then he will be taking off the rest of February. Nana will also be arriving in 2 weeks from this Saturday! We're also super excited to have Jonah's dad and grandparents coming out to visit the week of Esme's predicted arrival. We hope that she'll make her entrance so that they will all be able to spend some time with her throughout their stay! Our next visitor will be Grandma Marcy the first week of March! We are so thankful to have our family members able to help out with baby Esme and her big sister Ella!!
Ella seems to be catching on more to the expected arrival of her baby sister. She knows who she is and what her name is going to be. She understands that pretty much everything pink in Mom and Dad's room at the moment is Esme's. She enjoys helping me fold the clothes and loves to check out all her old teether toys; today we got out a bag of diapers to put away in the basket. Ella wanted to try them out on her puppy instead of her baby doll.
My health is doing fine; I've another appointment this upcoming Wednesday. (2 weeks before the due date) I'll then have another closer to Valentine's Day. I take a nap every day when Ella does; I haven't been getting any sleep at night because of the discomforts and Esme trying to kick her way out. However, the excitement of knowing that our little girl will be here soon has me all giddy. (Granted, Jonah isn't getting much sleep either between my snoring and waking up every 30 minutes.) I've looked through all the photos of our baby Ella and it's exciting to know we'll have another little tiny one very very soon! I think Ella is the perfect age for her arrival; she's going to be a wonderful big sister and such a great helper! We are so very blessed!
She loves to color and use lots of stickers; above is her most popular dress up ensemble.
She loves to feed her puppies!

She absolutely loves her puppies.

This is her favorite park (plus Mom and Dad's); it has a fence around it.
