Sara woke up on Saturday morning feeling Braxton Hicks contractions for the first time. She was getting up extra early because she was a Matron of Honor in her friend Amy's wedding and this was the first thing she told me as the alarm went off. My response? "Wow, your uterus is getting in some good practice." Then I rolled over and went back to sleep. It worked well for me then so I think I'll try the rolling over bit again when we wake up to a screaming baby. (just kidding!)
Other than that, I'm just a painting fool! The changing table and the crib now have a fresh coat of "swan's wing" white and are ready to go. Sara washed all the crib bedding tonight and I think she's pretty anxious to put it in and see how it looks. I really think the main reason that she wanted a girl was to be able to play real-life dress up and it's starting now.
More pics to follow, but here's a few to wet your whistle. The first is a shot of us at Amy's wedding on Saturday (compliments of David Thoreson at Epic Foto) and the second is what happens when you try and paint trim without realizing how big your belly really is. Let this be a lesson to everyone out there.
Take care,
Jesse

Hahaha! I have a pair of sweats that look like that from before the twins were born. John never laughed so hard at me! You look great Sara - can't wait for the baby to come! We'll be home for a visit this summer and we look forward to meeting Cameron. Hugs, Contessa \o/
This is terrific! I love that we'll be able to know how you are. The blog and pix are great. Is Jesse a professional writer?
