Finally Nesting???

Well, it is obvious that I am getting bigger & bigger & bigger!!!

Our friends had a little get-together to celebrate the little mister.

More fun toys & cute clothes!!!

March 1. Wow! 29 more days to go, now I think the time will fly by! Chris said, "Happy March" this morning & I think that is when I realized we now have less than a month! So, I think today the 'nesting' instinct finally kicked into high gear! I went though all the baby clothes, blankets, and everything else-I have got all the clothes & blankets washed! And Connor & I went shopping again today so Chris could get some homework done. He can't decide if he likes or dislikes us giving him tume to do homework-he gets a lot done, but then again, we spend money :)

Along with my nesting, comes with me being quite clumsy these past few days, which really means more work for us, especially Chris. While I was scrubbing the shower, I discovered that the shower had to be re-sealed. Connor broke his airplane, so Chris had to fix that for him. Chris had to fix a leaky toilet in the guest bathroom, so Chris has been busy with his own to-do list, hopefully that won't keep growing like mine. Then today I broke the knob off of the pantry door by leaning on it when I bent down, apparently it isn't meant to hold a pregnant lady-it was quite hilarious. So, more work for Chris :) I have been busy painting boxes and getting the boys' room all decorated and ready to go...it is coming along slowly but surely-hopefully it will be completed next weekend!

Tomorrow, Connor & I have a busy day of reading books...to celebrate Dr. Suess' birthday, we are going to have a "Dr. Suess Day". Which means we will attempt to read all the Dr. Suess books we have...which is 28!!! Connor had a blast running around the house after dinner finding all the books and stacking them on the dining room table. We will have fun reading them tomorrow. Thanks Amy for the great idea-we will see if I think it is a great idea after ready all 28 books-my tongue may be quite twisted by the time we get to book #10.

30 weeks & counting...

Well, I finally hit the 30 week mark, only 10 weeks left to go! However, it may not sound like much time, but it is still 68 days! Yikes, that sounds like a LONG time. My belly has gotten really big in the last couple weeks...I can't imagine it getting much bigger, but I guess it is going to. I have been feeling pretty good, just tired. My body definitely tells me when I need to slow down, which is hard for me. I am starting to get in that uncomfortable stage & my belly is starting to get in the way, I have a much harder time bending over, getting up from the floor, getting out of the bath tub, and getting out of bed. And we still haven't decided on a name for this baby boy yet, so his name remains "baby boy' or "baby brother".
