Hallelujah!

The camera is finished! They had to replace the entire lens. You would think that I would be posting all the pictures we have taken since Friday, but there havent been many since Noah has been in the 3 day potty training phase. You are to do nothing all 3 days but remind him to tell you if he needs to go. Very time consuming. And today (the 3rd day) we had church. So we just brought extra clothes and hoped for the best. When Tony saw Noah's number pop up, he jumped and ran to his room with the extra stuff only to find that Noah had asked to go potty. Tony took him and that was all. Unreal!! Pre-kids I would normally skip this reading, but after a year of on/off trying with Noah, to have success is still sinking in. I have been waking him up the last few nights before I go to bed to have him go one last time, but tonight, I will just see what he does. So liberating I tell you! This also means he will be going to school on Tue/ Thurs mornings for a few hours. Crazy. So big already. *sniff*
Zach is such a wild man. Though his smile will melt you, you will also discover him on top of every piece of furniture he can get his hands on. Couches, tables, chairs, coffee tables, baskets...just very busy but still loving to follow Noah and find things to do. Which has been so cute. Now he also insists on sitting in a chair at the table and eating. He is very unhappy with the high chair. It isnt like Noah, so he doesnt want to do it. He is also sleeping throughout the night!! Are you kidding me!?! I have forgotten the wonderful art of sleep, no...quality sleep. Such a dream!
It started I think when Tony watched the boys for a weekend while I went to the beach with my friend Kim. We went with no hubbies and no kids. (except baby Mo). It was so quite and surreal and...and...quiet. But Zach woke to daddy and that stopped the night waking. Then when I returned they were so addicted to Tony it was no big deal to see me. Funny.
I am a week out from my 1st trimester being over! It sometimes feels like it went fast, but then it also feels like I have been waiting for this week for 2 1/2 months! (oh yeah, I have). But much to be exited for. I am feeling the baby squirm around, which never gets old, and then on Friday, I get the first ultrasound. Who knows, maybe we will be able to tell what it is?!!? wishful thinking. But I am hoping some of the fatigue will begin to fade. I can go without a nap, but I am super tired at the end of the day, so most days I still try to nap if I am not also trying to squeeze in a chapter or two of the Twillight series. Im on book 3. It is all dominating right now. You know what I mean if you have read them. :) I also began running along with my swimming so I hope that will also boost good energy later too. I feel so un-pregnant when I run. ahhh its my heartbeat.....anywhoo.
So this will be a busy week with Noahs school twice, and speech class once, and also the tail end of soccer. How did it get this way again? Well. I must go to bed to be ready for it all.

Pictures soon!
