9 1/2 MONTHS!

38 weeks... could be any day, could be 2 more weeks!

So, tonight at 12:23 am was exactly the same point when Naomi arrived. Naomi was 38 weeks, 1 day and I'm pretty certain that I will pass that point with this baby. It appears that with each pregnancy I carry each baby further than the previous. I think I'm happy about this. I am happy to have a full term baby, who wouldn't be? I'm just ready to meet this little person that's been growing in my tummy for the past 9 1/2 months. I've found that since the other two came fairly early I'm impatient for this one to come, just assuming that the same would happen again. I've come to the realization that I just need to chill out and wait. This is easier said than done! 

I feel absolutely, positively HUGE. I have only a few pregnancy shirts that will actually cover my expanding belly... as you can see this is not one of them. Hopefully my next post will be of our newest family member. I'm growing increasingly uncertain of this. For now, I'm patiently waiting....

Soccer!

I had no idea how much fun soccer was going to be. 

I just loved watching him play and cheering him on. 

Things like this make me want to be a kid again. 

On Mikey's break he definitely took advantage of getting some relaxing in... 

at least he was still watching the game, right?

Is it my turn yet? 

Daddy and Naomi watching Mikey play. What fun I tell ya! I'm really looking forward to watching him play the rest of the season. Who would've thought I'd be a soccer Mom? I sure didn't, growing up playing tennis. Boy were we missing out, what a great sport! Mikey did great and I think he's going to have a lot of fun with it in the future. 

9 months!!

I've made it once again. I can't believe it! I'm 9 months pregnant and boy do I feel it. I'm ready to meet this little baby and I know my hubby and kids are as well. 

We love you so much already little one. 

Just for giggles, I thought I'd post my 9 month picture from my pregnancy with Naomi. This baby is definitely lower  but I think that could be due to the fact that this is my 3rd baby. I think I'm either just as big or bigger than with Naomi but that doesn't really matter. Right? We are hanging in there and taking these last few days/weeks one day at a time. 

A summer of 1st times

 (Just a warning that this is definitely a Mommy brag post. 

I'm so proud of my kids and I really want them to know it.)

 Naomi had her 1st trip to the dentist

Naomi was definitely down with wearing the awesome pick glasses!

Hmmm... this chair is pretty cool. How do they get it to move like that?

All in all I would say it was a success. Naomi cooperated with the help of big brother. 

When her dentist started to examine her teeth she got a little frightened and big brother came over and repeatedly told her it's okay and held her hand. It was really sweet. Way to go big brother and way to go Naomi for being such a brave little girl! The best part for Mommy was when the dentist said my little lolly-pop lover has beautiful teeth and all looks great. 

Now that Mikey is riding his bike like a big boy he's been able to go on bike rides with Daddy and even some of his friends. It's been a ton of fun watching him and he has amazed both Daddy and I with how good he's gotten on his bike. We are so proud of you. It has been a big summer for you Michal... learning to ride a bike and swim. FANTASTIC! Naomi of course must do whatever big brother is doing and she scoots all around on his old scooter.. it's so cute and amazing how well she can use that scooter at only 1 1/2 years of age. Way to go kiddo's!!!
