It's raining, and that reminds me of Seattle (plus Eric fertilized the lawn on Saturday and he says the rain will help it grow). Then he told me that he "can't" mow it for three weeks, and we both laughed because that's about how often he mows it anyway. Good thing we're such nice people or the neighbors would be getting sick of us.
My boys are on the second day of a three week vacation from school. I am so much happier with them home. I need someone to periodically come up to me and burp, or show me how he can jump off the kitchen counter, or bring me a feather. Right now they're playing in the driveway in their winter coats in 70 degree weather because I have yet to buy them new raincoats.
My baby is healthy and happy inside me. I'm trying SO hard to be patient while I wait for her to be born! Yesterday Eric walked into the bedroom and woke me up with nice loud burp aimed at my belly. She gave me a whopper of a kick in the ribs. That was kind of a nice start to my day:).
On my schedule today: 1. Clean bathrooms while blasting Micheal Jackson songs. 2. Go to Whole Foods to buy snacks for during/after the birth. 3. Pack my bag for the birth center.
My toenails are painted. I asked Eric to do it- it was so cute to see how hard he was concentrating on not getting nail polish all over my toes. He did a better job than I would have- he's got good fine motor skills. Girls like guys with good fine motor skills:).

Yay for simple pleasures that bring happiness!
Yay for year round school and yay for Michael Jackson! Boys are so funny...I can't wait for this little girl to enter your world!
Happy Belated Birthday-- you look beautiful! Sending you peaceful and uneventful birthing karma!
What is that crazy outfit Brigham has on! It looks like 4 costumes at once :) I am feeling impatient for you! I know how HARD it is - anticipation, apprehension, and giddiness all wrapped up into one. I can't wait to see you as a Mommy to a little girl! I bet you'll feel how I felt when we had Elijah. It's a new world of parenting a new gender and everything they do is so super cute because it's new.
Wow - congratulations! And the very best wishes to you and your precious little girl! I second Cailean's comment - parenting a new gender is so new and different and fun, and well, you'll see! :)
Yes, that would be Chewbacca, a pirate, superman and batman all rolled into one.
OH, and a rastafarian too:).
