Today started off with a trip to the dentist and I wish I would have brought my camera along. But who knew a trip to the dentist would include car video games and a flat screen as you lie down to watch as you get your teeth cleaned?? We love our pediatric dentist, Dr. Greenhill, and highly recommend him if you haven't found someone for your kids yet. They know how to make the experience so positive for the kids and parents and I'm so thankful to be making the first experiences with the dentist such positive ones for my kids.
Since the apptmt was early and the day was promising to be beautiful, we decided to stroll the Creation Museum Gardens. Wow, so beautiful. We have been several times before but I can never get over how this beautiful botanical garden is so close to us. What a blessing!
I found myself several steps behind the boys this morning as I'm slowing down as I near the end of pregnancy. I thoroughly enjoyed hearing their conversations together though. I get concerned about adding our third boy and the time of individual attention each child will get from me in the coming months. But when I hear them becoming such good friends, I realize not always having Mom at a second's notice isn't always a bad thing.
My favorite shot of the day because it reminds me of the conversation. Colin would get nervous that he was about to fall off and Grant would reassure him, "Don't worry Colin, I got you, I won't let you go." And then Colin would be reassured and say, "Okay Bubby, I believe you. I believe you." Oh my gosh, this hormonal Momma just about started crying at the brotherly love being displayed.We have had exciting baby front news. I am scheduled for inducement on May 17th!! I will be 39 weeks which is when I delivered the other two boys as well. Everything is progressing very well with my body and I am already very favorable to be induced. I was induced with Colin and loved the experience and was still pain med free through labor. Having an inducement date has put some more pep in my step since its so close and thankful that Mom will be able to be here with the boys so I don't have to worry scurrying to get them to friends until she can arrive. Just praying for all to continue to go smoothly!!

Apparently I'm a bit hormonal, too. Totally tearing up at the picture of them holding hands and at their conversation. So, so sweet.
I always feel like I am not able to give each of my children the time and attention that I feel like they deserve. But I think you just become more creative in making special times happen. Also .. for me, I have found myself cherishing special one-on-one moments in a way that I wouldn't if they weren't so rare. I really notice that I'm connecting with that one child and that we're having "a moment". Anyway. You're going to do great. And what a blessing that your boys are developing such a sweet friendship. You're right - I think that will help as you all adjust. :)
May 17th!! I'm very excited for you. Can't wait.
