Goings on....

I just wanted to post some of the things going on here. I have pictures, but are not posting them at the moment. Things have been a bit crazy around here, but Im not sure when they ever really slowed down...
One event was that Tonys uncle Frank passed away a few weeks ago. It was expected, but sudden all at the same time. That started another week of family, friends, dinners and a funeral. It has been wonderful to see everyone and catch up, especially since this little one is close.
We also had a small baby scare last Tuesday. We went through 6 hrs of contractions and sent Tony into a tail spin. He was cleaning, packing, dishes...all of it! We at 2 1/2 wks out, were not packed. Can you believe it? Us?! But never fear, we are now. Bags are in the car, car seat in the car...set. We havent had any other instances since, but it defiantly put us on notice. I also have become swollen. Face, hands and feet. I went to put on shoes the other day and they just didnt fit! The ones that do, cause creases in my feet. I cant even wear my wedding ring anymore. She also seems to have grown 2x bigger each day. Everyday someone makes a comment about being due. Even if Im having twins. Nice. So, the reality is setting in and FAST!
We also have had two friends who either delivered a baby at 28 wks, or was hospitalized at 28 wks with some concerns. So we are thankful for everyday that she is healthy and inside.
Some of you also know that tony is picking the name. He decided last week in the wake of the possible arrival, to tell me what it is. The rest of you however will have to wait the 1 week and 6 days. :)
Zach has continued in his tantrums. We did however, reinstate the pacifier. We took it away for about a week and saw such a different boy. He was just miserable and in turn, so were we. Once we put it back things got much better. He still has a strong opinion about a few things, but he is much happier.
Noah has spring break next week. Weird! But the timing couldnt be better. If she comes next week sometime, that will be one less thing to think about. Amazing how that works. He still wants to go somewhere every minute of every day. So we are working on doing things but not always huge things. Like the library can be fun, just not an all day doing.

Well, we will keep you posted. Im sure it will be soon!
