Here is what's been going on with me lately:

I'm in full on baby mode.  (Sorry if the baby stuff totally bores some people.)  I feel like all we've been doing lately is baby stuff but at the same time we have only made a tiny dent!  It's daunting to me really.  All the simple things are done to make room for the baby.  Closets are all clean and organized.  Kitchen and bathroom cabinets and laundry room/pantry have also been re-arranged to make room for baby.  Tiny people have a lot of "stuff".  Especially when you're the youngest in the family (both Jonathan and I are) and your siblings keep giving you things that their babies don't need anymore.  I LOVE LOVE LOVE getting all their things but goodness...where am I going to put all of this stuff!  Now, we're to the harder things...like decorating!  Very fun but there are so many choices!  I'll do a nursery post later once more things are in place and not so scattered.

What the nursery looks like right this moment!  Ahh!

Although there is sanity now (a bit) in her armoire.

 Moving on...

Jonathan's graduation date it set!  May 14th!  Very exciting except that is TWO DAYS before my due date!  We'll just take that as it comes I guess.  My mom and Aaron are absolutely wonderful though and bought Jonathan a new suit (as a graduation gift) for all his interviews he'll be having to get an Assistant Principle job or department head position.  He's pretty excited about the suit because it's Ralph Lauren and so are nearly all his other clothes.  I think he feels pretty snazzy!  And, he wasn't too keen on me posting his picture in his new suit so he made it difficult to actually get a normal picture.

(Attempt # 1 to take a picture of him - pretending to be me during our weekly photo shoots...funny)

Attempt #2 - Cheesy awful suit ad pose!

Attempt #3 worked!

I've started trying to finish the living room.  It's been hanging out in this in between state for awhile and it's bothering me.  Here's what I have so far.  Although I have done some tweaking since I took these pictures.

I'm still tweaking...and have a ways to go before it's all 100% right.

I FINALLY had my first blog book printed!  LONG STORY.  I've owned it on PDF for awhile but I just never printed it because I didn't want to spend the time to do it at home.  So, I caved tonight and ordered a hard back book online for my first year of blogs.  I'll probably do book number 2 next month.  Also, I have now deleted my first year of blogs since I have them in paper form and PDF form.  If I ever need that info I have it 2 times over...no need for 3.  All of this printing and deleting was prompted by the fact that last night Blogger told me I was out of storage space!  Ahh...thanks for the warning.  So, because all blog pictures are automatically linked to a Picasa account I logged on and began deleting (and deleted the posts on Blog)...it was a long process.  Once year 2 is printed then I'll delete it as well.  I plan on keeping my online blog at one year always now...so I don't run out of space!  I'll post pictures of the book once it comes in!

Happy Tuesday!  I think this is going to be a long week!
