Final days before the Dean's turn to 4!

Well, we're in the home stretch as this week marks the official due date of Baby Girl Dean.  We are in anticipation mode now, wondering when our daughter and sister will be born.  I am officially on leave from work, trying to relax, have some fun, and prepare in these final days leading up to delivery.

Last weekend we took Lucas to the Minnesota Arboretum.  It was your perfect fall weekend weather so we really took advantage of our time outside.  Lucas loved the life size variations of homemade scarecrows, digging in the soil, and taking in the beautiful grounds and color changes.  We also made it to the apple house where Lucas was psyched about his bag of Honeycrisps.

It would be impossible for us to take a break on the weekends, so we decided to redo Lucas' bedroom on Saturday and Sunday and upgrade him to a full size bed.  The toddler bed worked for his transition out of the crib, but we soon realized it didn't make for a very comfortable or cozy night sleep.  We already felt good about our decision when we peeked in on him last night so see him sleeping soundly all tucked in under his covers.

Lucas thought "papa" came to visit.
"whooooo, whooooo" Lucas kept saying.
Honeycrisps are the BEST!
Now there's enough room for both of us on Lucas' bed!
Check out my new and improved room.
