Sweet Moments

It doesn't get any better than happy loving kids!!! Emry loves to follow Jack around and is so happy when Jack is willing to play with her. Thay can be the best of friends (on some days!)

3 months and 2 days...

Considering Christmas was just three months ago...and it still feels like it was yesterday (especially with these freezing temperatures and snow!)...I am a tad bit nervous! Three months is all we have until this new sweet baby girl comes to our home! I don't remember ever feeling so nervous before! Everyone assures me that four is so EASY!!! I wish I believed that - or could get a guarantee on that would even be better! All three kids have been sick on and off for the last two weeks and I don't know how I could be spread any thinner! (That's a pretty ironic description of how I feel, since I have NEVER been so huge in all my life - I am really scared physically of what I will look like in three months!)
I don't think I have ever quite experienced the "clumsiness" that pregnancy induces. Let me just share with you my past two days! It began by me painting our dining room...still not sure how I managed...but I fell holding my tray of paint (this is a pretty close match to the color we chose) and ended up wedged between two chairs and had to call for help. I literally was stuck and couldn't move - I think Nate really did have a hard time holding back his laughter to ask if I was alright. This morning, I decided Nate ought to be the one to finish the trim - safer for the whole family - so I was moving our pictures and wouldn't you know it my hand went right through the glass sending fragments of glass everywhere! Yep, Nate was a bit surprised when he walked into the room and saw me trying to tweeze tiny shards of glass out of my hand. Honestly, I feel like I am a hazard - trying to make dinner tonight, I ended up missing the bowl that I was suppose to be putting the oil into - not sure how that is even possible - but the oil ended up on the counter top and Emry very upset with me. I spilt a full box of baking soda - even though those boxes look small....believe me - that is one big mess to clean up! The best thing about being clumsy while being pregnant is that I forget half of the clumsy things I do. I know there was quite the extensive list of clumsy acts I did - but hey, I'm pregnant and I simply can't remember anything any more. If I am to learn anything from this...it's not to get so mad at my kids when they have accidents....meaning Emry who naturally spills anytime she is sitting at the table or anywhere else for that matter! Well, I am not sure how I even got on this tangent...this certainly wasn't what I was going to write about...but, again being pregnant, I really can't seem to stay focused for too long. I really hope that I stay this way forever!
