a BIG day

Two significant events have occured in the last 48 hours:
#1  Lincoln went an entire day in 'big boy undies' and kept them dry!  Hip hip hooray!  He's been waking up dry for the last couple of days, so I decided to let him try the undies (since we were going to be home most of the day); and it worked!  Linc now willingly pees on the potty, but not so much for going poop.  It's a step in the right direction though. . . .

#2  I have officially began preparing our home for the arrival of Baby Girl.  I've been putting it off, hoping we would sell this house and unpack the baby stuff in our new home, but that possibility has all but disappeared.  So, last night Grace and I unloaded some drawers that had basically been junk storage and made room for all the infant clothes that will soon be retrieved from storage.  Very exciting!  In about one more week we'll start the process of hauling out the swing, the bassinett, the baby carseat, etc.  HOLY SMOKES!!
