There is really nothing going on here that is terribly exciting. So this will be a post of the miscellaneous non-events that make up my lovely life. And I do mean that. I love my life. (Most of the time. There are obviously moments.) I am so blessed to be able to stay home with the children, and I love that.
Non-event #1:
Lilah has decided to start waking up at night and scream bloody murder until we put her in our bed. And I do mean bloody murder. "MOM!!!!!!! MOM!!!!!!! DAD!!!!!!". It's lovely. And we have less than three months to break her of this habit before the baby makes her appearance. Great.
Non-event #2:
We started school back up last week after a long Christmas vacation. It felt great to get back on schedule. I love doing school year around and being able to take long vacations when we need them!
Non-event #3:
Vance is, at this very moment, walking around the house pretending to talk on a banana phone. He is very serious about it. Oh, wait. Now he is eating his phone.
Non-event #4:
I am turning 31 in a few weeks. My mother told me the other day that she is going to give me a book about menopause. Thanks, mom. I'm not THAT old yet.
I am definitely feeling the difference being pregnant in my thirties vs. my twenties. I am tired. This may also have something to do with this being our 5th child.
Non-event #5:
I am promising myself today (for probably the 25th time in the last month) that I will go through photos that are on the computer and/or stuck in my camera and upload them to Facebook and Costco. It most likely won't get done. I still have a huge pile of photos that I printed for photo albums about 10 months ago..... sitting on the bookshelf.... waiting to be placed in said photo albums.
But I have very good intentions!

I was thirty when I was pregnant with Jack, and it was the hardest pregnancy! I was just so tired, and than he was so huge too it made it that much harder. Hang in there.
Poor Lilah - do you think she's having night terrors? I've heard those are more common in boys but I think girls have them too sometimes. I was about 10 or 11 when my younger brother had them and my room was closest to his - they were just awful, screaming and crying inconsolably.
sorry you're feeling so tired, I imagine having 4 kids to look after while being pregnant plays a big part in your exhaustion!
Sarah- I don't think that she's having night terrors because she's perfectly consolable as soon as we pick her up. I think she's just about to turn two and realizing that she has a will and how to exercise it! :p
Thanks, Nik! Only a few more months, I'm hoping they don't drag by.
