There is only one month left until the arrival of our little one. The anticipation and nervousness is mounting. We are now frantically trying to get the house in order to add one more little body and a lot of stuff to it. Skylar is excited and ready and Lizzy finally realizes that there is a baby in mommy's tummy. I am sure that she has no clue what that means though. There is a lot to do before we are ready and I am sure that it will not all be done before he/she comes!
Chris has now been working out of town so we spend time with grandma!! Our weekends become jammed with things to get the house ready and still have the girls do some fun stuff!!! I now start going to the doctor every week starting tomorrow!

Little One
We now have a date for our newest arrival. It will be October 29th. I am excited and ready. There has been a lot going on lately and no time to write about it.
Skylar has started kindergarten and has finally settled into it. She had a little bit of a rough start but now she is in the routine of it and seems to be getting along with everyone and making new friends. This is the most that I have ever heard her talk about friends at school or anywhere. She sings us songs and is working on sight words and knowing the letters and sounds out of order! She seems to be doing really well. She is really excited about the baby! She told me last night that she loves the baby and it already loves her too.
Lizzy went back to daycare and seems a little lost without Skylar with her. This is the first that she has really been anywhere without Skylar for a long period of time. She, also, seems to be doing well. We are starting to cut back her nap time. She would still sleep for 2 or 3 hours in the afternoon if she could! Then she is up late at night with Daddy!!! We are trying to fix that before the baby comes. She has no clue that there is going to be anything different in her world anytime soon. It will be interesting to see how she reacts!
Chris finally got the bathroom finished. He had to rip up part of the floor and redo it because the toilet was leaking. Everything is fixed and in working order. I love it!!!! He is trying to finish up all the little projects around the house before he has no time and the weather is not cooperating.
As for me, I am feeling good. I am tired by the end of a day of teaching but everything is going well. I am ready to have this little one here! School is all settled and it seems like we have been in for months not weeks. This year is actually going better than any other year I have and it is my hardest workload year. Strange how things work.
I will try and do better with posting. Things got busy and I am sure you all know how that goes!!! Keep in touch and watch at the end of October for pictures and details about our new one!!!!
