Lasts

Well, tomorrow is the big day.  After 39 long weeks we are finally about to meet our daughter and give Nolan a lifetime buddy to laugh, play, and harass his parents with.  These last couple of weeks have been filled with "lasts" as we have made a point to cherish every moment as a family of three.  I'll be honest, I'm excited to meet my little girl but I am also mourning my one-on-one time with Nolan because, let's face it, things will never be the same come tomorrow.  I am going to blame these crazy pregnancy hormones for now because deep down I know that completing our family with this little lady will be amazing and we have so much to look forward to.  Stay tuned for an introduction to baby girl Holick, until then, here are some of our "lasts" with Nolan from the last week or so.

 One of the last times taking him to the sitter's house in the morning.  Of course, we need to wear our sunglasses to protect against the morning sun glare :)
 Getting ice cream after our last dinner out as a party of three.
 Last time putting together this contraption.  Nolan made sure to test it out and make sure it is safe and comfortable.
 Last time going to the library for story time.  He walked right up to the teacher at the beginning, looked at her, and said, "bubble."  Dude knows what he wants and he wanted to make sure she didn't forget to blow bubbles at the end.  He gave her a quick high five when she confirmed there would be bubbles and walked his way back to me.  Stinker.
 Eating ice cream on our last mommy/Nolan day.  Vanilla with M&Ms.
Can't pull out the camera without a silly face session!


Here is a quick recap of our day together.....
It really was a great day and I couldn't have asked for more.  We spent the first couple of hours lazily watching a couple of shows in our pajamas, eating breakfast, and getting ready.  Then we headed to the library to exchange our books and go to story time.  When we were finished at the library we had lunch at the park, Nolan played on the playground for awhile and then we got ice cream and headed home for a nap.  The weather was really warm, Nolan was a good listener, and it was a great day.  He is a great companion and I'm sure his baby sister will have just as much fun with him as we do!
