My Son is a Storm 4-16-07


My Son is A Storm

Landon just finished watching a Thomas video that has been buried for a few months. It had a storm episode it in...he is now running around the house causing "storm damage." Too bad today was the day I needed to clean...everything. Why is it that with kids...you clean up one mess and another one or two or three is made in the same amount of time. It is discouraging and defeating and it makes me grumpy...especially when I have so much to get done!
Year 4 165Drumroll please...here is the much asked for pregnancy picture. I took it the night Jonathan and I went out for his birthday dinner...which, by the way, landed us at Olive Garden, not BW3's . I feel gargantuan. The baby has dropped (I think as low as he possibly could) and it literally feels like he is going to fall out of my stomach...I am often spotted walking around with my hands under my belly holding it up. My energy is shot. I had my second grad school test on Sunday and after I got that behind me I had SO much on my agenda to get done...but I had no energy. I am so thankful that I don't have to feel this way forever. It will end, it will end...
My sister comes on Wednesday evening from Florida. We planned this trip 3.5 months ago and I just don't know where in the world the time went. It seemed so far away back then and now here we are. I am SO excited to see her little pregnant self and to give her first baby shower on Saturday. We are going to have some fun times!
Tonight is small group and tomorrow evening my sister-in-law is going to take my pregnancy pictures...or our last set of pictures just the three of us. I am very excited for the pictures as I know no matter how I look, she will turn it into a work of art. I think we may have to cancel on small group tonight. I just have too much to do before Kelly comes and I need Jon's help with some of it and I need to cut his hair before tomorrow...which means I need this evening at home. Despite my lack of energy yesterday I did get the carseat washed and the crib matress washed down...tonight I will finish putting the bed together after Jonathan finishes putting the crib up. This baby can come anytime now... 
I know that I need to cherish these last few days/weeks that I have with my threesome family. It will never, ever be the same. Depite getting up four times a night to use the bathroom, I know that in a few weeks I may be getting up 4 times a night to feed an infant (which takes a lot longer than going to the bathroom). I am trying to enjoy this time and revel in my life with one child...but as Jonathan put it last night, "How can you when you feel so miserable?" I won't go into anymore detail...I don't want to complain about how I am feeling on EVERY post  I am sure you all have heard about it enough already. Anyway...I am trying...
It is a beautiful, beautiful sunny day. I am off to accomplish as much as I possibly can...Happy Day all!
