All this madness

Between pregnancy, chasing a active little almost 20 month old, trying to enjoy the holiday season there is little time for much else and yet wekeep trying to squeeze more in.

Brian will soon be out of school for the holiday season (last day - the 15th & won't go back till the 8th) & we have some ambitious plans during that time for various fun activites as well as necessary preparations for the arrival of this baby girl. Brian keeps doing wonderfully in school & scored 100 on another test today. He plans to spend most of his coming weekend - when not working - studing for exams - which are next week.

We just met with a doula-in-training tonight & she is going to help us with the birth of this baby for FREE & I am THRILLED about that. I am currently 33 weeks pregnant & there is no such thing as comfortable anymore. We are pretty sure now that we will call baby girl - Rachel Leigh. Last night we also toured the L&D floor of the hospital where I will be delivering - soooo exciting. At least Brian knows where to go now.

Nate has now learned to say "yard" & we are working on him mastering the art of saying "grandpa" & "grandma" so he can show off to the grandparents locally at Christmas & the ones out-of-state when they come to visit when the new baby arrives. He has also been sleeping in a big boy bed now for almost 3 weeks now & is doing a GREAT job of staying in there all night. We are really proud of him.

Anyhow,
Hope you enjoyed!
