today was 42.  FORTY TWO.  yep, on may 16th it was 42 degrees.  and rain.  rain allllllllllll week, it's gonna.

yet, this week is excellent and things are so so so good. 

our house is coming together and it's pretty and spacious and i feel so much better.  i don't know what it was about the last place, but i never felt this comfortable or at home there, not for a full year.  to make it even better, eric is home for two weeks straight.  well, actually, he's off work for two weeks.  just off.  home.  it's so nice to have him here, someone to call from the grocery store parking lot - listen to this crazy story!  someone to keep our cold bed warm, since i plain refuse to run the heat in middle may, and cuddle up with.  this going to bed with husband is something so many women must take for granted, they have it so often, the soft breathing of another person, the body weight on the other side of the bed, the bed too messy in the morning to just smooth up your own side and call it made again.  i, friends, do not take this for granted.  ever. i am sleeping long and hard, definitely more than 8 hours a night.  adam is too.  no more waking up at 6am for him, waking up at 9am or so lately and it's awesome for all. 

i guess i am feeling full, our house is full of family and love and space and rest and happy.

our baby is due in less than two weeks.  less than two weeks!  we have so many tiny little things for it to wear, mostly green, orange, yellow and white, all washed and folded and waiting for the warm little body to go inside. but my mom did send one super sweet, super tiny pink and white outfit, with ruffles on the bum and flowers all over... and i've packed it in our hospital bag too.  you know... just in case.

tonight, i (and baby too!) went to yoga nidra at breathing room.  such.a.treat.
