I am going to back-track and share what we have been up to over the last couple of months.
We have been living at my mom's house since may, while our house is being built. Our time here is coming to and end, as we will be moving into our house at the end of the week. Both exciting and overwhelming at the same time. We will have just over a week to get ourselves somewhat settled before we are scheduled to have our baby girl. We thought just moving or having a baby would be boring, so we decided to do both at the same time :)
We have been working hard on potty training the last couple months, Carson is doing great, which is a huge blessing. We were hoping to have him out of diapers before the baby comes, we are definitely on track for that.
Up until the last week we had a 2 year old that we still rocked to sleep. Knowing that life was going to get crazy adding another little one, we had to take suck it up and make him go to sleep on his own. The first night was horrible, he cried for an hour and a half, saying, "where did my mommy go", "see mommy" and "rock-rock". I, along with him cried and it took all I had to not run in his room and rock him to sleep. I can happily say, that it payed off to not run in after him. He now goes to sleep like a big boy with only a couple minutes of wining before he is out for the night. Mission Accomplished!
The last thing that I will share for today is the story of when Carson felt his baby sister. A couple weeks ago(when I was rocking Carson before bed) Carson was almost sleeping when the baby did one of hers big rollovers. Carson looks up at me laughing saying, "mommy baby moving". I told him that was his sister moving and he proceeded to say "more, more" There have been a few other times since that he was felt her moving, he laughs each time, as do I. Something to remember for sure!
