The countdown is now down to three days.... Where has the time gone?!?! We're getting pretty anxious about the arrival of little Ellie, but as each day passes I think I'm getting a little more nervous about the surgery. Something about being awake during a surgery just scares the crap out of me. They say there are more risks when you're out during a surgery, which I've been there and done that one once. I was at the Dr yesterday and she ran through all of the risks of the C-section, and of course some of them are tiny risks but make the situation even all that more scary! Last Friday I decided to start my leave from work early. I've been experiencing too much pressure and have been way to uncomfortable that I just couldn't stand at work when we would get busy. I plan on returning back to work towards the end of September after spending a few months at home with both kids. Caeden will still go to daycare in the mornings but in the afternoons I'll have both kiddos to myself :) Not sure if I should be excited or scared about this one yet ;) haha
Saturday night Sioux Falls and the surrounding area got hit by a pretty good size rain storm complete with flash flooding and lots of lightening and thunder. As a result of this storm we lost our Direct TV and they won't be out to fix it until Thursday!!! On top of this we needed to take our lap top in to have it looked at so it's kind of boring around here! I'm hoping I can survive the next few days without it! I've got lots of little things I can do to keep me busy though. I just finished up another wedding yesterday. They'll be picking up the flowers tomorrow, so that's kind of a big weight off of my shoulders. Today I think I'll bake some banana bread and throw it in the freezer for after Little Miss Ellie arrives. Our basement is well stocked with extra food and drink so hopefully we won't have to make as many trips to the store. I don't know how I'll handle that one with two kids....Could get interesting.
We'll keep everyone posted as to the excitement that shall be here on Friday! Hope all is well with everyone and we look forward to introducing our daughter to the world Friday afternoon :)

12 days and Counting!
Sara's C-section has been moved to July 2nd at 11:30 A.M. So little Ellie will have her birthday right between Great Grandpa Reiter's birthday and Uncle Mike's birthday! We're getting very anxious for her birthday to get here, we can't wait to see if she's going to look like her big brother or not. Sara's still pretty nervous about the surgery but anxious none the less.
We took Caeden to pick out a couple of fish today. Daddy has been wanting to get fish for awhile and has been asking Caeden if he wanted some too, and of course not knowing any better Caeden said yes. So Kyle promised him he could get some fish. So today we brought home to fan tail gold fish, a black one named Buzz, and a Calico one named Woody. Caeden seems to enjoy them so far, we're hoping we won't one day find them flopping on the floor because Caeden let them out of the fish tank haha.
We've been pretty busy the last few months. Sara and Glenda have been busy with weddings, one of them being Megan, Kyle's cousins. It turned out gorgeous. They have two more weddings coming up in July, two in August and one scheduled for September as well, so Sara will be pretty busy during her maternity leave. Kyle has been busy mowing 3 lawns this year, ours, his parents, and the neighbor across the street from his parents house. When he's not mowing he's busy doing pretty much all of the housework. He's the best! Caeden is busy being well, Caeden, our little monkey! It's hard to believe that he'll be 2 already on July 15th!!! We'll be celebrating his birthday with a monkey themed party on July 24th. Mommy has been busy buying all of the necessary party stuff so we can be prepared because I doubt we'll have much time once the baby arrives. Life will definitely get even more interesting in a few weeks :)
