2 weeks and counting

I didn't even look to see how long it's been since I've blogged.
It would just make me feel like less of a woman.
No, seriously.
I know women who say things like "I'm not going to start a blog because then when I stop writing as regularly, it will just be one more thing I've failed at."
And to those women I used to always say:
"whatever, that's ridiculous. Blogging is fun no matter how often you do it!"

And here I am.
One of those women.
I guess I should take my own advice yes?

So, I've got 2.5 weeks to go until this babe comes out. Did I already mention it's a girl?

Well, yes...yes, it is!
At least, for now.
We were told our first son was a girl too.......
so I guess we'll see!

I've been nesting like a crazy woman. Seriously. Painting things. Building things. Re-purposing things. Organizing things. Cleaning things. Pretty much doing anything I can think of to keep me busy.


Because let's face it, a busy mom means busy kids and I love it when my boys are busy doing things of their own accord (as long as it's non-toxic and fairly safe of course)

Thing 1 and Thing 2, aka Elliot and Caleb

 

This pregnancy hasn't been the easiest, I'm not gonna lie. I've got vericose veins popping up in my leg (they're beautiful, let me tell ya) and migraines that have lasted almost a month (I've got drugs for this, it's just hard to take them when I'm supposed to be the responsible one....a drugged up mom isn't really the look I'm going for). I've gained more weight than I would like (please tell me you all know what I'm talking about here) and spend most of the night complaining to the hubs about how flabby my arms are or how I feel like I have a double-chin...and don't even get me started on the size of my butt these days. I'm so grateful that I've been able to carry this baby full term and incredibly blessed to have another child in the family.......but I just had to complain a little. I'm done now.

So, here's a random blog post for you. I'm sure you all have been sitting on the edge of your seats waiting for me to come back and post! Well, I'd like to think at least some of you were =)

Ok, I'm off to nest some more. I think I'll paint something once the boys go to bed.....

Thanks for stopping by, I LOVE your comments!!!
