At least I have a good excuse...

I know I've been a bad blogger for, well, probably the past ten weeks or so. I've slacked off before, but this time I have a good excuse. We're having another baby! I'm just about 14 weeks along, and due February 7. I've been feeling pretty good, actually. It's been way easier than with the first two. I'm just tired (hence the napping instead of blogging). We're all obviously excited, and no one is more so than Annie. She says the baby is a boy, and we'll be naming him Buttercup. She would not like to discuss the possibility of another sister because "we already have one of those." So there you have it. :)

And a new baby couldn't come at a better time because:

Kate is a wild woman. She needs a younger sibling to knock her down a peg or two. She is absolutely the sweetest, most loving and nurturing little girl. She is also totally dramatic and demanding.

And this one:

She's gotten so big, she outgrew her carseat and had to go into a big girl booster seat.

And, she's leaivng me for preschool in September. I'm pretty sure college is mere moments away.

(Feel free to note that Kate is screaming in the background because Annie stole her cup to put in her new cupholder.) (Also feel free to note that Annie selected the most obnoxious pink and purple butterfly/flower pattern for her new seat, despite my and Matt's attempts to choose the more neutral seat. I knew I should have just bought it when I was alone.)
