We pulled out the infant car seat the other day to wash the cover and get it all ready for the baby. Aubrey immediately said "it's for my brother sister." She made one attempt to climb in, and quickly realized she was too big. Her "naked baby," however, was not. She spent a good hour in the nursery yesterday rocking the baby in the car seat, changing her diaper, turning on the "rock-a-bye" (aka white noise machine), and telling me "sssshhhhhh...baby sleeping." Best of all, she actually smiled big for a picture next to the baby. I think she is getting pretty excited for the real tiny baby to arrive. We've talked so much about it, I think she's sick of hearing about it and is ready to meet her brother or sister.
I have been having a lot of Braxton-Hicks contractions this time around, and Aubrey gets very concerned when I hold my belly and appear uncomfortable. The other day during such an episode, she asked "mommy go hospital. Go see Dr. and check heartbeat?" I couldn't believe she put it together that when mommy's belly hurts it might be time for the baby to come. Crazy what they pick up on at this age.
OK... against my better judgement, I am including a prego picture of me so I will stop getting grief. 36.5 weeks and counting!!!
