MIA again!

Sorry!  We've been dealing with this...

and this...

and then Phil had to go to Oregon to fly for a week and left me to deal with this (although he said emphatically that I didn't have to deal with it while he was gone... but I couldn't just leave it)...

and all of that would be much easier if we didn't have to also deal with this...

Oh that STINKER!  He is such a stinker!  Doesn't want to play with toys... just wants to be underfoot and into everything he's not supposed to be!!  Ohhhhh, God knew what He was doing when He made that one so adorable.

The other day he was crying after naps and when I went in to get him he had stuffed all of his blankies (yes, he insists on having that many in his bed) into this shelf and had wedged himself between the pack and play and the bookcase while getting out of his bed.  He was on the outside of the pack and play when I came in the room yelling, "STUCK!  STUCK!"  It was so sad and funny at the same time!  Now he gets out on the other side.  :)

We had an ultrasound today just to check on baby and he is measuring over 8 pounds already with 2.5 weeks to go.  His big ol' head is measuring almost 41 weeks right now... doesn't that sound fun for Mama?!  Haha!  The ultrasound tech even patted me on the arm and said, "Epidural, honey."  :)  But he's head down, so we're thankful for that.

My family was here this past weekend and I got to break away one afternoon with my sisters (and new bro-in-law) for a fantastic lunch and some shopping.  I had a yummy glass of Chardonnay with my lunch and even got a free extra pour from the waitress when she heard I was having my fourth boy.  He's already making my life better and he's not even out of the womb yet!  :)

I know I haven't even posted pics from Christmas this year yet... maybe we'll have Christmas in February on this blog instead.  :)
