"You are not here to live a mediocre to average life; you are here to live an amazing life, a miraculous life. If it weren't for your challenges, there would be no miracles. You must do that which seems impossible, for it is only in the impossible that miracles are had." - author unknown, but very respected

Friday's Fabulous Five

1. Saturday we got a whole bunch of Spring cleaning done! It felt so good to clear out this room that has been accumulating too many things, and going through all the kids' clothes.... does anyone need baby boy clothes?? Couldn't have done it without Nate...




2.





My cute boys are totally playing with each other today. This picture is from last week, but I thought it was cute and appropriate for this fabulous morning (Monday). Monday is my cleaning day and while I've been running around like a crazy person trying to get things done, the boys have been hanging out together. Brad and Noah went through a sheet of stickers and they now have stickers all over themselves, and then a little later after Noah got hurt I saw Luke and Brad hovering over him, laying in his bed, feeding him M&Ms, and getting him blankets and drinks and stuff. He was totally being pampered. Then shortly after that I walked past Noah and said, "Hi" and he pointed to his brothers and said, "Nice!" in his deep, little, baby voice. It was so adorable. Just love these moments.



3. Thursday, I got to take my boys to Discovery again. They loved it, I loved it, and it's fun to have something to take up the time. Noah was adorable with the little fan thingys where you stick the paper in and it floats up.... he kept scraming out "WHOOOOOAAAAAA" the whole time the paper was sailing up and until it landed. It was hilarious. And he had a bucket of water dumped down the front of him by a "baby". He was SOAKED. Brad and Luke were SO GOOD the whole time. I couldn't believe it!



Basically this week has been one big count down for me. I know I'm obsessed, and that you're probably all sick of hearing about how anxious I am for this baby to be here, but seriously, I don't remember ANYTHING taking this long to get to!! It's worse than Christmas when you're a kid. And I know that come Monday I'll be freaking out, thinking of all the things I still haven't done yet and be all worried about not having things perfect when I had all this time to do it, but still. It's lame. I am getting a little nervous with thoughts that it might be a boy, maybe her head is getting damaged in my pelvic bone, what if she comes early and we don't have anyone to watch our kids.... the usual I guess. But anyway. Sorry I couldn't come up with 2 more fabulous things.... give me a week, I'm sure I'll have a million (I'm usually pretty sappy when I'm on those drugs....).

I'm so sad that I couldn't meet you at Discovery Gateway last Thursday, but this H1N1 is really miserable. We were actually up at Primary Children's on Thursday morning.
I'll have to come up and see you and that precious baby when she comes! Be sure to keep us posted!

If your baby comes early I'll watch the kids. :) There, that takes one worry off ya. If it's a boy, you can keep all your boy stuff and give me all of your girl stuff, I'm sure I'll have one someday. ;) lol.
