Short Report

This post will be short and sweet because last week was pretty much a wash at the Megel House. Monday night I came down with a bad case of the flu. Achey, headache and a high fever. I couldn't get off the couch for three days. Talk about fabulous timing....but I would much rather have the flu 39 weeks pregnant than with a newborn. I don't remember the last time I felt that bad. I couldn't even take care of Abi. Thank God for the blessings known as Mom and Kristen who rearranged their schedules to take care of her for me! Once again, Adam had to play "Mom" and I'm so thankful for his help too. Although he did inform me he thinks he used up all his "niceness" he was saving for after the baby is here. Huh. We'll see how that works out for him.

Luckily, I am feeling much better and have been able to enjoy the weekend and this beautiful weather! Saturday morning was a frenzy of errands and playing catch-up. Then we headed down to watch Drew's soccer game and visit with Adam's mom and dad for the rest of the day. Aaron, Sarah and Eli decided to come down for the day too, so the kiddos had a chance to play.

doing what they do best...making a giant mess



I put Abi's hair in french braids today and when I took them  out before bed
this is what her hair looked like! Just thought I would share because it looked hilarious.

It's starting to sink in that I'm having a baby in three days. I'm just a jumble of emotions - nervous, anxious, excited, stressed, happy and on and on. The to-do list seems never ending and I know the next three days will be really busy. But the excitement is definitely building around here!!
