What to do with myself...

Well Lisa just started 1/2 day pre-school, 4 days a week.

Since she was born I have always stayed home with her. It had it's ups and downs but she really needs this, in order to get ready for Kindergarten next year!! She is doing GREAT! Her teacher said she adjusted well and she is very vocal and involved!! She gets excited to go and talks about her day... She loves doing her "homework" and gets us all involved in helping her with it!! I'm proud of her!!!!

The weirdest part of the whole thing is getting a few hours alone, to myself! It's weird! I don't know what to do. The house is quite. I can hear myself think. I'm calm and relaxed for the first time in 4 years!!! It's nice, now I have to try not to get used to this because in a few months I will have a newborn and the process will start all over again!!

The Name Game

Not one but TWO baby name dictionary's and the numerous websites that are available to us... you would think that we would have picked out a name by now, right?!

Think again!!

Our little girl is still nameless! It's hard thinking of a name that will be part of someone the rest of there life!!

I'm my opinion, a little girl's name should be very pretty. It should also fit them as a child and adult!! Lisa's (Our Daughter) name is pretty. People always complement us on her name! So how will we ever think of a name as beautiful as hers?

Believe it or not, Homer actually was the one who thought of Lisa's name!! Now I joke with Homer that he is holding back on me this time... trying to give me a chance to name this one since he named Lisa!! He denies this claim though!! LOL

I'm sure the name will come to us when we hear it!! Until then I guess she is still just "Baby Girl"!!

28 Weeks

I am now in my 3rd trimester. The count down is on now!! My belly is differently starting to show. Strangers now comment on it and ask questions about when I'm due! It seems as if I just POPPED out all of a sudden because I find myself not allowing the belly enough clearance room! Oops, I'm always bumping into something!!!

All of the last trimester discomforts have kicked in so I have a lot to complain about now days! I'm moody, I feel like crying, I can't eat much at a time (a fry fills me up), I have horrible heartburn (This child better have hair!), my hips hurt, my back hurts, I can't bend, I can't walk, I can't stand to stand, I can't get comfortable, and this baby kicks way too hard!!

I guess other than that, baby and I are doing quite well!! I actually enjoy when she is (nicely) kicking and moving around! Being pregnant and feeling your child move is incredible! I know this isn't my 1st but the experience is still the same as the first! When she kicks it's like she's saying, "Hey Mommy, I'm in here, I'm healthy, and I'm growing! I'll see you soon!" She is very strong... In fact I think she may kick the hardest of the three kids! And that says alot because Bart was pretty strong himself!!

Anyway, the photo is current! I have been having Homer take a photo of my belly every week since week 15! I know I don't always look my best now days but it's nice to look back and remember things!! I'm thinking, I would like to get a professional photo taken when I'm full term!!

Welcome

Hi everyone! I am creating this blog to keep all my family and friends updated on our life! With the new baby coming... I'm sure alot of you will want to see pictures and hear stories on what's going on!!

As you all may know I am expecting my 3rd child January 2009! I am currently (almost) 29 weeks pregnant. That puts me at (about) 7 months! I can say that I am now happy and excited to have my third child... But if you would have ask me that on Mother's Day 2008 (the day I found out) you may have heard a completely different story!!!

This baby was a complete surprise to Homer & I! We thought that our family was complete with one boy and one girl... after all it does sound good, one of each!

Blog Note

I'm choosing to keep my blog viewable to the public so everyone will be able to see it with out any troubles!

I feel comfortable having it open to all (even the strangers) but for all of our safety I am NOT using our real names! I have chosen to go with a theme! Since we will now have 3 kids "The Simpson's" comes to mind!! And it fits!! LOL

• Our son is Bart (age 9; currently in 4th grade)
  
• Our daughter is Lisa (age 4; attends Pre-School)
• Our baby is Magie (Due in January)
• Daddy is Homer (age 27; currently NOT bald!! lol)
• And I am Marge (age 26; currently a SAHM aka Stay At Home Mom)

Enjoy!
