I am back!

Hopefully, that is! With all the things that have been going on in the past few weeks, blogging has been put on the back burner.  Hopefully I can get back in the swing of things and manage my time a little better! The past few weeks for me have been filled with sewing with my mama for Savannah's room, resting, organizing her little closet, sleeping, keeping our house clean, napping, celebrating birthdays, and did I mention sleeping? I have been SO TIRED the past few weeks, I can hardly keep my eyes open when I finally hit the pillow.  I think that is because my mind is going 90 miles an hour with things I think I need to get taken care of [which really I am sure could wait] and I am staying up way too late and waking up early with my mind already racing.  [you don't have to explain to Birc what nesting means, that's for sure!]  For today, I'll just say Happy Birthday yesterday to my wonderful sister Anna.

[this pic is from when we were about 24 and 26 respectively, because I am busy wishing for and reminiscing about my body pre-baby]
 We had a great big 3-0 party last night and I slept very well when I finally got to sleep!  I'm so very excited for Anna and Savannah to meet.  I'm sure Savannah will want Anna to steal her away from her crazy mama all the time when she realizes how much fun Anna is :) 

In other news, guess who's 33 weeks today? This mama and baby are! And we are feeling every day of that! I can't imagine how my belly can get any bigger, but I am pretty sure I said that back in week 25 or so also.  Savannah weighs in at almost 4 pounds this week and is over 17 inches long.  CRAZY!



She has been moving around All. The. Time and has the hiccups at least once a day, and usually after every time I eat [which I find very odd??].  Anywho, we're getting ready and excited to meet her and I'm going to pack the hospital bag this weekend so I can put my mind at ease about that one thing.  Any suggestions on something you were so glad you had?

I think there are some awesome projects going on right now, but I really enjoyed the sewing marathon. Who knew this old gal could stay up til 4 am and still make it to church on tim?
