Grandma is here to save the day!

My Mom is here and I am so happy. One of the first things she said to me besides giving me a big hug and grinning from ear to ear is "you aren't that big, the way you were talking I thought you would be huge." This is why I love my Mom. :) Everyone else keeps telling me I am huge (mind you non pregnant people) and my Mom doesn't.
I showed her all the baby stuff we got and she said she felt overwhelmed she can't imagine how I am feeling. Again so nice to be justified!!!
We are going to get a bunch of stuff done today and spend some time together while we can.
It is just so great to have her here. My Dad had her bring along a gift for the baby. A really obnoxious stuffed dog. It's huge. If you knew my family it would make sense why I find it so comical. Basically we have a tradition every year for a holiday or birthday we get each other really cheesy gifts as well as nice ones. One year I got my Dad a stuffed frog from Mexico. So Gabby is now being ushered into the tradition in utero. :)
Another nice thing about having Mom here all the cleaning I can't do because I can't bend she has volunteered to help with.
Just makes me even more excited for her to meet the baby. Moms rule. I hope I am as cool when it comes time.
