Well, ever since he ditched his diapers, Einar's sleeping has been pretty unpredictable. I think he's just thinking about potties and being a big boy so much that it's hard to fall asleep for naps and at night. He's also been waking up in the middle of the night to not only use the toilet but also inform me that he either is hungry or wants to sleep in my bed. I've included some pictures of one of his midnight snacks of cheese and crackers. You really don't want to see the picture that I took of myself that night! Maybe he's just helping me get all prepped for the new baby and even more unpredictable sleep schedules.The kid also wanted his two little potties cleaned up and packed away so that he can just use the big toilets. I think we'll be sending him off to the prom next week and then packing this summer to get him off to college in the fall. So now I have fewer toilets to clean and that is a great thing! He's been doing very well using underpants even though at night when he goes to bed he wants to get up every 20 minutes to pee.
Phone conversations have become more like conversations now with Einar instead of him just walking around the house and telling the person on the other end what he is seeing. It's really hard to follow what he's saying when you can't see what he is seeing.
Tonight when we left for a meeting, we caught a gorgeous sunset! Einar liked it because it was "Pink!"
For the baby update, I'm now officially at 37 weeks and feeling very pregnant. Yesterday my back was just killing me from the awkward weight on the front of me. Today was better, but it is still getting more uncomfortable as the last few weeks of pregnancy tend to do. Went to the doctor today and everything is going well and on track. I'll probably have more news after I go to my next ultrasound on Tuesday morning. My folks move in tomorrow to help out. They have one-way tickets from Seattle. So after tomorrow around 1pm the baby is welcome to come since I know that Einar will be in good hands and have fun with his grandparents while I'm in the hospital. Actually, it really needs to wait until at least Saturday night since a friend of mine has planned a baby shower for me at church on Satuday afternoon and I hear that showers without the pregnant lady aren't much fun to attend.
