My Best Efforts

Being 35 weeks pregnant, with 2 kids, rearranging the house to make room for baby, leading an after school chorus program and various church activities, leads to an exhausted mom! So needless to say, little things (like this blog!) fall by the wayside. So here is my attempt to catch up for the past month:

Making bread makes me extremely happy these days. Something about fresh-from-the-oven yeasty goodness brings a smile to my face!

Clayton got a new bed ... it's a loft bed so we could have maximum space in his new room! He's quite excited!

The "terrible twos" have reared their ugly head and I'm hoping it doesn't last long! This is what happens when you go on a walk and Maecie wants to hold the dog leash, even though it will result in her falling flat on her face, and you don't give in immediately. She knows how to work that pitiful look!

My Valentine's Day attempt. Tried to show some love and that's about all that I could come up with. We were on a low-key celebration this year. But Clayton thought it was the best! And sometimes, that's all that matters.

When all else fails, give them a laundry basket and see what they come up with! Entertain themselves and let their imagination flow!! Here, we are rowing the boat.

So just 4 weeks left, and I'm ready to go. We don't have a definite name (hoping it comes to us soon!) and I don't have all of my newborn clothes out yet. Nor have I bought diapers. (Pitiful, mommy!) But if she came tomorrow, I would be okay with that.
