My sister......

My poor Emy is officially hitting the "holy crap there is another baby coming in 2-5 weeks" stage. SO- we have made this week baby week and are getting all the goods together for baby Nemo. Em is trying to stay on top of things with two very busy kiddos, a husband working all the time, and getting their house ready to go on the market. Did I also mention, she still is sick to her stomach a lot, even with her anti-nausea pump and has tachacardia again with this pregnancy which makes you very tired. Needless to say - Em is stressed. We are going to Babies R Us on Wednesday to order her crib and get her some of the necessities she needs. She is getting some good stuff back from me that she let me borrow.... but there are always things you need for newborns - the little things! We also are getting a Nemo spot ready in Em and Adam's room since that is where he or she will be sleeping because there is no other room! (Charlie and Hanni are sharing a room for now). We are re-using Carli's bassinnette (for the 4th time) and are trying to make the spot as cozy as possible for the new bundle without putting the bassinnette ON TOP of the bed :P.

I do have to say - Em is handling all of this stress with grace and has been still a very devoted Mother, wife, friend and sister. Hannah is getting ready for the baby, but is VERY high maintenence, and Charlie, who LOVES his Mama above ALL others, is going to have a tough time. We are working on him, trying to make us somewhat good substitutes for the little guy..... I might even kidnap him a few times over the next few weeks.

Em has an ultrasound scheduled for tomorrow so we will know a bit better WHEN Nemo is coming....right now there is about a 3 week difference between the baby measurements and the due date, that can cause some stress right there!! So we will know more tomorrow hopefully.

Please keep Em in your prayers as well as her family and baby "Neems" At this point I cannot imagine being way pregnant AND hauling around 2 young kids. Much love to my sweet sissy and all she is dealing with:) Any well wishes, prayers and good thoughts would be welcome!!!!
