The Going's On...

Well, Mother's Day weekend turned out really nice. Though Christopher had a big test on Monday, he took time to pamper me. He cleaned and made me lunch Saturday while I was at a meeting and spent time hanging out in the evening. Sunday, he got up with Kira, did dishes all day long, made dinner, gave me a super cute card (and the message he wrote up himself...I love those!), cleaned up after Kira threw up after church and did some more laundry. Most of all, he made me feel so appreciated for the little things I do everyday and gave me a break from having to do them! Can't beat that.

Kira has not been herself this week. Her appetite is gone, completely, and she's had some kind of stomach bug. She threw up again today but I think she's on the mend. Hopefully, this was just the closing act and she'll be back to her old self soon. I'm just so grateful that she's sleeping really well! It's nice to have the luxury of a full night's sleep while I can!

Christopher hasn't quite had the same luxury. Though by choice, he's been studying so hard and really trying to get through this week of exams and prepare for next week's finals by getting up in the middle of the night to go to school. He's done SO well this week and I'm so proud of him. I guess those 3 o'clock in the morning bike rides to school have paid off.

On Thursday, I had a doctor's appointment and it looks like I'm starting to get ready for baby #2 to come! I'm dilated to a 1 (nothing impressive, I know) and softening, which could mean a few more weeks, but it's nice to know that I'm progressing already. Now if only I could feel more prepared in other ways for Alexis's debut...
