26 Weeks!

I'm starting to think bending over is overrated. I'm just thankful for my monkey toes which aid me in picking up the little toys and do-dads that cover the floor of a house where a 4, 3, and 1 year old reside.
I have also decided that shirts that meet my pants line, and pants that button, are overrated as well. (But I'm still considering doing some shopping.)
Other things. . . oh yes! Legs that look good in shorts. Unnecessary.
A full night's sleep without 3 + trips to the bathroom. Boring.
But, in the midst of all these little joys of pregnancy, I get to feel our little guy swimming around and hiccuping. How cool is that? I also get to hear Zack and Cadence tell me everyday that my baby is so cute, or that they love him, or tell me that he is so nice. Yesterday morning Cadence woke up and asked me if the baby was here yet. Zack is looking forward to sharing bunk beds with his bro.
It's all good stuff, and I'm getting pretty excited to meet him in a few more months. :)

April you're funny. I was just thinking how grateful I am for MY monkey toes so I don't have to bend over. Especially as I am holding a 22 pound little girl! Hiccups are fun. I can't wait until I can feel my baby move more and hiccup!

Do you even remember me?

I'm super far behind on my blog, so this should be interesting.  Will I stick with it?  Probably. . . or not.  But I hope because I have too much to be thankful for to keep it all to myself.  So, this is an update since last OCTOBER when I last posted an entry here.  No picture for now.  No time! About us as of late-ish. . .    JJ-  He's 35 and he goes to work everyday.  He has crappy knees.  But he is a gem.  He's a hard worker and a marvelous dad. He moved us into a new house that we love in April.  We are still close to our old neighborhood and get to see old friends a lot.  It's great.   April-  That's me.  I  am a headless chicken.  But not right now because I have two kids napping, one at a friend's house, and one at school.  That is why I am blogging!  I am taking classes online to earn my elementary ed degree so I can start a preschool next fall.  I'm pretty excited about that.  Pretty awesome.  I hate math and I'm not good at it.  I'm sort

Cooper is here!!!

And never mind that he is sitting up on my lap playing with a chew toy. He's just such a fun little boy that all my free time goes to playing with him (and not blogging)! Since he is nearly four months old and I haven't had a single post about him, this entire entry is dedicated to our favorite baby in the world. Cooper's Creed I will only have blowouts when it's convenient for mom, like when she's blogging. I will sleep really well through the night, but only after I do one or two fakeouts. I will keep you guessing about my eye color for at least 3 and 3/4 months. I will grow like a weed. I will be the size of a nine month old when I'm three months old. I will not barf too much. I will give a big adorable smile to anyone who looks in my direction. I may scream at the top of my lungs if I feel that someone should be looking at me, but as soon as I get some attention, I will coo and kick my feet. I will be a snuggle bug. Instead of laughing I will hold my brea
