We are doing pretty good around here just keeping busy!
Joe's production of "See How They Run" opens in two weeks, so yeah, that is pretty crazy and consuming ;)
I am 32 weeks along with this little man now (well tomorrow) and still feeling pretty good most of the time. Which people are always surprised by. I mean yes, I am pregnant so I get the aches and pains and inconveniences that go along with that but I'm not so big that I can't function and I'm not sick. I can still mostly breath and I don't have swelling. In my book that means that for a pregnant lady I am doing pretty good. I mean don't get me wrong, I for sure have my days but really I know it can be much worse.
The nesting desire has set in though and that has been interesting this time. I mean we already have the main things- the crib, bassinette, car seat, etc. So it is just getting the consumables (diapers, etc.) and boy things. But also being due 5 days before Christmas is fueling my desire to have all things Christmas ready to go... because I clearly don't have two months to do so or anything- but it is a current obsession ;) Don't worry, I'm handling it reasonably.
Michelle is a little cutie pie for the most part but she also has gotten to an age where she has intense emotions. She feels most things very strongly, which means that we are working on how to calm down and express your feelings. She is very talkative around us but apparently still pretty quiet in nursery- she is seriously such a people watcher she just doesn't talk a lot when we are out but she will tell you all about it later.
She is very aware that things are changing in our family. Sometimes she has days where she will say "hold me like a baby" or "__________ like a baby". Other days it is all about being a big girl. She is very interested in baby brother and likes to show him things- which means that Mom's belly has to be readily available. If you ask her who is in our family she will tell you "Mommy & Daddy & Michelle & Baby Brother"
No. We have not decided on a name for this little guy. And no, even when we do we will not tell you. I don't care if you beg or think you are entitled, the answer is still no.

I'm glad that I'm not the only person who has no idea what to name their baby. Aaron and I have boys names at the ready....we weren't ready for a girl. People are like, "Oh, are you not telling?"
Ummmm...no....I literally have NO IDEA what we are going to call this kid. Aaron and I can't agree on a single solitary name.
My sister asked, "Well, what is on the short list?"
Ummm...nothing. Nothing is on the short list. There is no list. I have names. Aaron has names. So I guess technically there are listS. But not a list. If you turned our lists into a Venn diagram, it would be a picture of two circles on either end of the page....slowly scooting further and further away from each other.
I have a lot of feelings...
I'm so happy that you are at a fun point in the pregnancy, where you aren't sick or swollen. That is the best!! I fully support your desire to start getting Christmas ready to go. I don't care that it is October, at this point, you need to hop on stuff before stuff hops on you. That's how I'm feeling right now.
