Happy 2010!

Two exciting happenings since entering the new year:

1. I can finally say that I'm due THIS YEAR AND THIS MONTH when posed with the question no less than 10 times per day! Four weeks from today...not that I'm counting! Now we just need to coerce the little guy to get into the right position! At 34 weeks, he was still laying sideways across my tummy. I have my next appt on Thursday and am fairly convinced he hasn't budged, so I think they will do ECV (external version) to try and turn him into place. Sure hoping he decides to turn on his own before Thursday!

2. Mitchell has slept in his big boy bed for 3 nights now :) He napped it in yesterday too. It certainly takes a bit more time & patience to get him down, but he seems to be getting used to it. It is particularly worrisome for us because his room is upstairs and our room is downstairs and the first 2 nights he wandered down the stairs in the middle of the night by himself into our room to inform us "Mommy, Daddy...I'm awake" at about 3am. The first night he demanded to go back to sleep in his crib rather than his big boy bed. The second night he finally went back to sleep in his new bed after convincing him that all of his toys were sleeping :) Last night, he didn't come down to our room at all! He did summons me up to his room 3 separate times though. I guess this is the practice that I need for the sleepless nights to come! :)

We have been spending our recent days off working on the house doing those nagging house projects that have been on our list for months. Here's a bare bummed Mitchell helping Daddy with one of his projects. :)

Oooh, I've got my fingers crossed that he turns for you! Are there are at home things you can try to encourage the flip?

As I'm typing this, the comment box is popped up next to Mitchells' bare bum. Hilarious! I guess he figured since he didn't need to wear a tool belt, then he didn't need to wear pants either, huh?
