Preparing for Baby #2

I am in the homestretch of my pregnancy with Baby #2.  We have less than 2 weeks before we meet our new little guy.  I have one more day of work then the rest of our time off to prepare for the arrival of our fourth (and last) family member.  I have arranged all the baby items and since we put our house on the market, moved most of it to our "family" barn.  I have gone through the plethora of clothing and narrowed it down to what we will truly use.  I have a big box ready for the next friend having a baby (which shouldn't been too long as there are twins in the near future for some friends).

I didn't do a very good job of documenting this pregnancy - in journal form or belly pictures.  I have written in Baby #2's baby book.

I am starting to get anxious about having 2 children and how that will change the dynamics of our lives - from our relationship as a couple to the relationship we each have with LBH.  LBH seems very excited about the baby and I know he will be a big helper, but this will be a major life change for him.  The other day we put Spiderman in a newborn diaper because LBH's diaper was too big.  I envision "wasting" many newborn diapers on various stuffed friends.

In preparation for the upcoming birthday, here are the belly shots I did manage to take:

I do believe I started showing earlier but I didn't gain as much weight as with LBH.  I did put on most of my baby weight in the last month.  For the last 2 weeks, almost every comment I have gotten is in reference to "when am I gonna pop!?!"  One of my co-workers was surprised to see me each day because she was sure I was ready to deliver (I might add her daughter is also about as pregnant as I am, so I cut Deb some slack because she is just eager for her grandbaby!).

Soon, I will compile all the belly shots together and compare them to my pregnancy with LBH.
