behind....AGAIN!

Maggie is curled around my belly, she likes it
until the baby starts to move around.
My sister Kellys' baby girl Tayler and Maggie May.
Maggie waited very patiently for her to crawl over to pet her.
Maggie napping the in the rocking chair, I know its hard to see her,
she's laying on her back with her feet straight up in the air.

I guess like Dara I too find it easier to post a quick update on the happenings on Facebook than on my blog and really need to do better.
Lately I have been staying busy trying to get things in order before this new baby comes. The nursery has been completely done for about 2 weeks now, so I feel great about that. I need to get some pictures posted of that SOON. We cleaned out the boys drawers and found a bazillion clothes that no longer fit either of them so I decided to get them listed on Ebay. A couple of my auctions ended yesterday, and did very well, pretty excited about that. I think with the way the economy is right now people are looking to cut corners wherever possible.
I am now in my 35 week of pregnancy, feeling good for the most part, no big complaints. Just getting back to the really tired scenario. At 30 weeks I was measuring 33 which had me a little worried, but last week when I went in I was right at 34, where I am supposed to be. Next week I go for my final 2 week appointment and then I'm down to weekly appointments. I cannot even believe how quickly it has gone by. But I guess with 2 other guys and the craziness of that there isn't a lot of time to sit around and count down. Trying to enjoy these last weeks, and all the fun of it. It is so amazing to feel this little one moving about, too incredible for words.
Super excited for my baby shower this weekend, after a quick change of plans to move to Amy's from Marcie's I think everything is in order. I feel so bad for Marcie, her pregnancies really take a toll on her body. I pray that she is feeling better quickly!
Funny the other night on the news they were trying to decide if we are in the midst of a baby boom. They said they didn't think so, but birth rates are definitely up. That's for sure, at least in the world I live in. At church I swear there is someone constantly new that has either just had a baby or is now pregnant. Dara says it is just a sign that our church is healthy. WOW! I guess. Too much fun. A few years from now our youth group is going to be HUGE! Kristal tried to contact the news to do a story on our churches boom, but hadn't heard anything from them, she said maybe they'll come do a story on me while I'm at the hospital, now wouldn't that be just FANTABULOUS. Seriously, loving all the babies. Unlike Colby who is having the feeling that babies are a pain in the butt. What a boy. This of course is after they are calling dibs on who gets to hold him first. :) Gotta be a tough guy though.
Baseball practice is starting next week, and games in the middle of April. Colby lately has been obsessed (to say the least) about football, so I think Shawn is planning to take him to the batting cages so he can get moving in another direction.
Cale is just as funny as ever, I need to do a better job of trying to post the funny things he says. What a guy. He may be the most excited about the new babe, lets just hope it stays that way. :)
