Very productive day yesterday. I was able to clean the house while Jeremy was out running in the morning (minus the kitchen). And today I worked on organizing the basement some more.

And I got naps in with Liam on both days.

Next weekend, I get a three day weekend.

I feel so very pregnant and still have 15 weeks to go. wait gain is holding out right at 20 pounds. i think at this point with liam I was 35 pounds gained.

where is the lid to my deodorant? Only Liam can answer that question, and I will have to wait a few more months before he will even be close to answering.

And for a followup, how did he manage to hid the lid, and not the actual deodorant? they were attached together last time I checked. "shakes fist" at legos and their teaching abilities!

Happy Belated Birthday to my favorite doctor:)

haven't been feeling well, but have started nesting already. Liam's closet is organized, and there is room for babies clothes, I emptied three boxes in the basement and I organized all the baby clothes.

Here's hoping the new baby can actually wear the newborn outfits we have! And oh my goodness, how many clothes we have. I've found things that I know Liam was only able to wear once before he was too big for them.

No clothes for presents please. or toys. I think there are about 20 things that I will be able to register for, but we have everything else.

Oh, and we have a baby name picked out. First AND middle name. But everyone will have to wait until little man's birth day! Until then, he'll go by BBF 1.58 :)

I'm sorta in a funk right now. Sad that Liam is growing up so big so quickly, and anxious for time to past so I can meet the new little man. Worried about handing two babies. And worried about what kind of men they will grow into. I spend a lot of time worrying about mental illness which both our families have struggled with and I just want them to have happy (and productive) lives.

There are some miserable people in the world. And I feel like my only defense with the babies is to love them like crazy.

Next month is going to be very bittersweet.

When we went to Liam's 15 month check up, he was in the 97th percentile for height still. 32.5 inches. he's gigantic! and then I see him at home and think how little he is.

if we made an extra $1000 payment a month, our 30 year mortgage would be a 10 year mortgage and we would save over $140K in interest.

too bad the new baby is gonna cost almost $1000 a month for childcare.

I bet we can still do it. Frugal is my middle name!


speaking of babies, I can not wait to meet this new little man. I wonder if he will look and act like Liam, but I have a feeling he will be completely different. I thought we had a first name picked out, but that fell through, so now back to square one.

And thank goodness Liam is almost through cutting his 2nd canine tooth. He has been such a grumpster, but tonight we played and giggled the entire evening.

and Liam has started running! it is SOOO cute. Tomorrow is his 15 month checkup and I think he has reached all the developmental milestones. he rocks my scoks:)

I am so happy for my sister that she got the job she applied for :)
