Save The Date!!!

Save the date! Steven Andrew Williamson is scheduled to be delivered via c-section on MAY 18th!!!  WOOT WOOT!

I had a doctor's appointment today and begged him to go ahead and schedule me...we are all set for the 18th...as in TWO months from today!!!  ACK! 

Cal went with me to my appointment.  It was a crazy morning: 

Eddie is out of town for work, my parents are out of town, and we had a showing.  Oh, and Cal is wild.  Have I mentioned that last one lately?

I got up before Cal-- he's been sleeping in until 8:30 the past two mornings.  Go figure, but I am LOVING it! I took a quick shower and raced around getting myself and the house ready.  When he finally woke up, I cleaned up his room, got him dressed and then we headed downstairs.  Before he could tear up the house too much, I let him play outside while I finished getting things ready and loading the car.  I did most of the cleaning late last night, so the house was for the most part ready, but needed the final touches. 

Cal was having a great time playing:

(I know I've said this a million times, but he is alllllll boy.  He wanted the hat and he wanted to put it on all by himself!)

We left the house early... this is a new thing I've been doing before a showing.  The realtor was scheduled to come between 11:30 and 12:30 and we were out of the house by 9:30.  It just gives Cal less time to tear things up! I swung by my parents house to check on things and drop off Hank, and then I took Cal to the mall so he could walk around and burn some energy.

By the time we arrived at the mall, the cute sneakers and socks were off and thrown into the back of the car and he was pointing at his bug boots.  Fine by me!  (see this new attitude I've taken???).  We went into the mall and walked from one end to the next with Cal waving at every person we passed.  He was having a great time pointing out neat things to me.  The kid about died when we passed a shoe store!  He was gasping and pointing and shrieking! He likes shoes....

After the mall, we went to the doctor's office.  They love kids there and always welcome them, but I make a point to never take him with me.  Normally, I don't have to, but today was a special circumstance.  We walked into the waiting room and every woman in there went "awwwwww" as soon as we walked in.  Cal had an audience!  He pretended to be shy and would come over to my lap and tried to bury his head.  Phony.  

They called us back and Cal was having fun in the examination room:

 This is gross, but Cal saw me pee into a cup and he was adamant that he have a cup too!  So, I got him his own cup to carry around.  He wouldn't put it down!  He had a great time at the appointment until the sweet doctor had me sit on the table.  I think he thought I was hurt and he started crying.  I picked him up and had him sit with me, which was a challenge since I was wearing a dress (dum dum move on my part).  So, with one hand, I was trying to hike up my dress, while the doctor was trying to cover my legs and underwear with a paper sheet.  Cal didn't like him that close to me apparently because he kicked the doctor with a big old rubber boot.  Once I got my dress up and paper sheet in place, Cal started pulling the sheet up to cover my belly.  I asked Cal to show the doctor where the baby was, and he lowered the sheet and pointed to my belly like, duh-- it's right here.  I had him "pat the baby" and he looooooves to do that, so he started smacking my stomach and the doctor was cracking up.  He listened to the heart beat and measured me and everything was right on track!

I feel like I am carrying this baby lower than I did Cal....not that I look any different (I have gained a ton lately....Andy has grown a lot lately!), but when he kicks, it feels like he is kicking SOOOO low.  The doc said that was totally normal with a second baby. 

After we were done measuring, etc, we set the date for the c-section!  I am super excited...it makes it even MORE real, if that's possible!

Cal came home and had lunch and was worn out from all the walking and entertaining:

The above picture reminded me of a time I caught Cal napping like this-- last May:

Both times in plaid shorts and white polo shirts! haha!

Hope you all enjoy this beautiful weather!  I am off to bake more cookies....we have an Open House this weekend!
