Ta Da

Not quite the original title, but I've just been having blogger's block for the past month or so.  Don't get me wrong, there's been a lot going on that's been "blog-worthy," but I just haven't felt like it.  Anyhow, thought I'd update you all on what's going on...

• I am 34 weeks along (officially tomorrow).  I feel irritable, and am working hard to not snap at people.  Things are bothering me more than, or just getting to me period, more than they should.  I, by no means, want to rush things though.  Olivia will come when she's ready.  But I am just plain tired, period.  Been trying to gather little things here and there for Baby Princess and getting her side of the room (will be sharing with Natty) more baby friendly. :)  I sorted through some gifts that were given and some baby clothes that were given to us, and have her side of the closet set up.  I'm very excited to go through all the baby stuff again.  I always forget how small their stuff is!  Got the carseat and carrier all cleaned up for her.  Nathan's very interested, and think it's his new toy - oh, little does he know!
• Tim's been picking up hours at Office Max, and making up for the low enrollment this summer.  He gets to teach an online class coming up in July, and he's pretty excited about that.  I like that he'll be work at home and won't have to go in.  I am concerned with how much the kids and I will be a distraction though. 
• Natty is just blossoming.  I am so proud of this little girl.  I cannot believe I will be registering her for kindergarden in March (2012).  It seems so far, yet so close at the same time.  I'm really having a hard time with her growing up.  She is so independent, and such a great helper to me.  She is so kind and compassionate.  Definitely can be bossy too, but it is usually in Nathan's best interest (when he gets into something that could hurt him, etc.).
• Nathan is just ALL BOY.  He is active from the time he gets up to the time he goes to bed.  Both kiddos do still take a nap, AND at the same time.  He has really been growing by leaps and bounds intellectually.  Of course, he has Natty modeling for him.  Just this afternoon, he counted to 9.  I was so proud of him.  He knows a few Spanish words, says quite a few sentences.  He is also quite the polite little guy.  I love the way he says please and thank you.  He's got the cutest lips.  He is very stingy with his kisses, but is an AWESOME hugger.  He is definitely my cuddle bug.
• Olivia is cooking and waiting for Mommy and Daddy to agree on a middle name.  Suggestions anyone?  She is measuring a week or so ahead (like Nathan).  She is also very active (also like Nathan).  I know she will not be overlooked because she certainly will make her presence known.  She is going to fit right in with Natty and Nathan.  I can't wait to see what she looks like (secretly hoping for dark hair and eyes), but I know she will be absolutely, perfectly made when I see her for the first time.

Will post pictures soon!  (I hope!)  Promise!
