It's been a hard day's night





Lately, Mc has decided that she might be done taking naps. We are getting a good 4/7 naps a week if I am lucky. I am not too happy about not having the two hours to do laundry, work extra hours or catch an episode of "Judge Judy" but they are bound to end right? She is still sleeping...just while she is trying to finish her lunch or @ 6:00 at night while at Mimi's. She is also entering the "feast or famine" stage where she will eat nothing but a strawberry and then the next day, two whole grilled cheese sandwiches. She MUST wear leggings and a dress on a daily basis and has also decided that maybe no pants at all is a better idea.




Today, she came up to me, looked at my stomach and said, "I want to punch my bruhdder" and then proceeded to pound me in the stomach. And so it begins. She did come up later and say she wanted to give him a kiss so I think she really does love him but inevitably, he will be her punching bag.




I am entering 31 weeks of pregnancy tomorrow. That is truly insane. He is going to be here before we know it and then, we have TWO kids. It is going to turn all of us upside down but I can't wait to see him. We think we have a name picked out---if you think I was going to put it here _____________ ,you are mistaken. I think we are going to keep it on the DL until he makes his entrance into the world.

Love it! DL is not a bad name at all!

I can't believe she wanted to punch him! I'm sure she'll change her mind once she sees how cute and sweet he is! I need to call you...maybe we can finally get together before you have the baby!

I think everyone should take a nap every day for the rest of their lives...I would if I could.

Yay for 9 weeks left!!! Cannot wait to hear the name!

And so it begins...definitely true. Although while he's a baby, you'll see that McK will have some pretty substantial, innate mothering tendencies (at least Kate does). We best be getting together soon. --Can't wait to hear the final verdict on the name.

I hate losing a kid's naptime! Ugh. But it's true... they all stop sometime. I'm excited to hear the name you guys picked. Hope you're doing good! Let's do lunch? Do you take breaks from work ever?

oh man! My sister in law had a girl and then a boy about the same time lenght aart as yours- it's hard in the beginning for most but they will be best buds soon enough! Enjoy every moment girl! Can't wait to see this little man!!:)

Yeah, I wish I could say that Mc won't take out her frustrations on her baby brother, but she probably will. I think Ava hit Sadie a good 100 times, at least. I don't blame you for not revealing the name. No need to hear everyone else's opinions on that matter.

Well, the Williamsons are the perfect family not to reveal a name to. The Ricks family on the other hand, are NOT! I learned that the hard way. Why do I always catch myself singing to your blog post titles? Very clever. Lucy also needs dresses and leggings most of the time and has COMPLETELY given up napping. At least Jr. is bound to sleep a lot at first, right?
