Updates

I want to start by saying life is good! I havent posted a real update in quite some time. We have been busy busy busy and this momma has been tired!!
I am currently 27w 2d pregnant with Grant. I couldn't ask for a better pregnancy at this point. I am feeling good and just enjoying each day that I get to spend with him in my belly. We know for sure this is our last child so I am just soaking every moment in. I love feeling his big kicks and wiggles everyday. I will miss that so much.

Joe is doing well. His job has gotten much busier lately and he seems happier and less worried about job security. He has also been doing alot of stuff around the house to keep busy...and errr me happy! We are upgrading little bits at a time.

Miss Veda is doing fantastic, sassy as ever but that is nothing new. I just had a meeting with her preschool teachers and she is excelling, in fact they stated that she was ready for kindergarten....I think they forgot that she just turned 4 and still had another year before kindergarten. None the less I was pleased to hear about her performance. She is a bright child and I adore watching her learn and be interested in learning. She is still in dance class and enjoying every moment of it. She is thrilled to be a big sister again soon. In fact, she is always talking to my belly and last night she even sang lullaby's to baby Grant...Sweetest. momment. ever. I can't wait to watch her with the new baby.

Grayson is such a sweet little boy with a firey temper. Lately his tantrums are over the top. We chose to ignore most of them unless he is trying to hurt himself or Veda but man o man they can get wicked! He screams louder than any one I have ever heard...wonder what the neighbors think??? He is definelty a momma's boy and I love every second. He clings to me when I have had to work a few days in a row and hugs me like he is never going to let go. Sigh. Love it. I think the transition from being the little brother to the big brother is going to be rough on him, but with enough love he will understand that we are not replacing him and I am still mommy and my love will never change. I foresee a lot of tears...maybe from both of us, but we will get through it and he will eventually love his baby brother.....at least I can hope!!

March 4th marked Joe and I's 6 years of marriage. We had a fantastic date night at Nagoya. Hubby is not the romantic type but sure showed a different side of himself for this occasion. I received a beautiful rose, a very thoughtful card, my doors were opened and my chair pulled out for me! Love you so much Joe!
