Getting ready for baby - putting together a new swing, pack and play, etc. as well as washing clothes, burp clothes and anything else that seems gender neutral.
Decorating for Halloween with the kiddos.
Christmas Shopping - I am just about finished. Now it's time to start wrapping!!
Cleaning and organizing the garage - why? I don't know it just felt like it needed to be done. :)
Trading in our Camry for a "MOM" van, which I secretly love due to the ease and space it provides.
Getting new carpet and building a shelf in the porch~ We're getting ready to spend a lot of time out there this winter!
These were a few of the highlights from the last couple of weeks. Without pictures... I volunteered in Braden's classroom which was a blast. I loved every minute of it and hope to do more as the year goes.
We started Olivia's physical therapy which I have been TERRIBLE about following through with. Today was the first day I actually did some of the exercises with her.
My OB appointments have been going well. Baby is head down and all is as it should be.
I remember a calm that came upon me at the end of my pregnancy with Olivia and I am just waiting for that to arrive. :) I feel like I am constantly frantic about something right now. I think some might say I am TOTALLY and COMPLETELY nesting - Steve might call it anal and annoying but it's all in the eyes of the beholder right?? :)
I have been terrible about being in touch with friends and family as I am dead tired by the time dinner time roles around and then it's kids bed time and school work or other items on the to do list and down for the night. So thank you for the continued voicemails, notes and emails. I love you all.

I remember getting my christmas shopping done this early when Henry was due at Christmas! But seeing your pile of goods there stresses me out! You have been busy! Keep it up!
....yet don't forget to just sit and enjoy these moments of just you and that baby! They are so precious when they are just your moment right now! No one else knows when there is a kick or a hiccup!
Steve DID say you were nesting! So no anal stuff for my daughter! ;>)
Time will become more precious as you grow as a parent and with more children added to your family. Being discerning about how you spend it is key even though you sometimes have to bow out and others might not understand. Blogging will most likely slip down on the list and that's ok!
