Empty baby room...still....

I have nothing to complain about, knowing that at some point soon, this room will be occupied. But I have never felt so impatient in my life, I have to admit. We sit and wait and wait and wait! We are so excited for our baby to decide to make an appearance!

Happy Halloween!!!

There was a "parade" at preschool this morning! Lots of excited kids!!!

You know your kid is too smart for her britches when......

Lane was driving Peyton to daycare the other morning and he was like “So Peyton, everyone’s excited for this baby to come. When do you think we’re going to have this baby?” And she looked at him and goes… “Dad! Chill OUT! When it’s time, you get to go to the hospital with mom anyway and I’m going to stay with Grandma.” I can just picture her rolling her eyes while she says it! Can you believe it!??! S-A-S-S-Y!

A few more birthday shots

Catch Up

Okay I am way overdue on an update. Some days just feel like I have too many things to keep up on! It's practically Halloween and they say we might see some short lived snow this weekend. Talk about winter setting in! The summer flew, fall was crazy busy with several family events; Peyton starting pre-school, birthday's, a surprise party, a big family U of M weekend, and my little monkeys 4th birthday! With so much going on, I've found myself feeling more emotional, or should I say "Hormonal" (as Lane would probably call it). It's been fun and I'm beyond thankful for the busy distraction so we aren't just sitting at home wishing it was November and this baby was here, but it's been kind of sad too. Especially pre-school. I'm quite certain it's making me feel sappy because of hormones. Even today, 2 months after she started, I left her at her class and off she went totally excited and unworried, and I walked out, to the car, feeling a bit like tearing up. Ridiculous! She's grown up so much lately. She is recommending baby names, visiting with him often and telling him how excited she is for him to come. She's telling me to be patient, kissing my belly. She's writing her name, she's doing crafts and projects constantly. She's a helper. She can clean up, likes to help set the table, helps make dinner. She's a person! I hope we are all ready for the big surprise we are in for any moment, when this baby arrives and shakes things up! That is one thing I'm anxious about, splitting time and not neglecting, and still feeling like I'm an okay mom. I'll probably be a crying mess for awhile!!! More to come...hopefully baby announcements next!
