Just a quick note to say I had an awesome Mother's Day weekend. Both mornings, I didn't get out of bed until 7:30 AM (late, right?) and went in to the kitchen for wonderful breakfasts: chocolate chip pancakes and sausage on Saturday and delicious french toast and fruit on Sunday. That was the best! We spent Saturday morning at the Buck Creek Festival in Helena and spent the afternoon planting flowers, doing yardwork and sliding in to the baby pool. Well, not me, but the kids. Sunday was another great day with worship and a little chair shopping. Anybody have any ideas where I can find a big comfy, relatively inexpensive slipcovered chair and ottoman for our bedroom?
I can tell I'm getting in the "nesting" mode, although there is not much I can do since my baby's room is still occupied by my other baby:). I do need to get the infant car seat out of the attic and get the pack-n-play set up in our room... and probably get some newborn diapers and other essentials. This is a busy week too. Elle has her Art Show at school tonight. Tomorrow is her offical last day of school. Then Thursday is the end of the year musical. Friday we are having an early birthday party for her. I'm 35 weeks tomorrow and I am hopeful that I won't go more than 39 weeks, which leaves 4 weeks by my calculations. We shall see if the baby cooperates!

Last night, we were reading Elle a bedtime story. When Steven finished, I said, "Elle, I'm so thankful I am your mommy." She said, "Yea, and I'm thankful I put my whole face in the bathtub and blew bubbles... and you're the cutest."

They're so cute--and getting so big! Not much longer before baby brother is here...I know you are excited! Can't wait to see pictures of him! Elle's comment at bedtime is hilarious!
Sounds like a wonderful mother's day. And your beach trip sounds great- AMEN TO NO THINKING ABOUT the million things you have to think about when you travel with kids (can you tell I just got back from a road trip with 3)? I can't believe you are so far along- I feel like i just learned you were pregnant! WOW! And I think Tucker is a great name!
i just love your baby boy. he is a cutie pie!
I love the picture of both of them swinging. How much fun! And kids say the goofiest things. owen told me the other day that he liked my shoes. I'm a little concerned about that comment... But blowing bubbles is a big thing, so that's cool!!
