May was spent enjoying our summer and getting ready for baby. There were a lot of doctor and dentist visits we crammed in before there was a newborn to care for. I assumed I would go at least until my due date (May 24th), so we had most of the month to prepare. We worked on the nursery, cleaned out closets, and organized as much as possible. We squeezed in a few more PT and speech sessions. Everyone got their teeth cleaned. We were ready to settle in for a month or so of not having too much that must be done.
The girls love swinging on the playset. One favorite game is for the parent doing the pushing to stop the swing, tell the child to close her eyes, put pixie dust on her head (tickle the top of the head), instruct her to think happy thoughts, and then swing her as HIGH as possible without her looping back over the swing set.
Matt, Amanda, and Huck came up to the lake for Memorial Day. This was right after my due date, so we knew we would either be able to hang out with them at the lake (which would be fun) or have them come to the hospital to meet the new baby (also fun). It turned out that we got to have an enjoyable last hoorah at the lake before the big event.

Luisa got to experience her first boat ride, which she LOVED, She also got to swim in the lake for the first time. She loves her swim classes at Lakeshore, so I knew she would love that part.
