Have a Snack

Lucy, at 23 months.

Now tell the truth, which would you rather munch on?

A sorry-looking piece of bologna, or the sweet cheeks and yummy rolls on this darling baby of mine?

It's a rhetorical question, of course.

Thank you so much to Anna, of Pleasant View Schoolhouse (blog and etsy), for this lovely apron. It's got "Maggie Rose" written all over it.

Overdue

No, not me. I'm only 28 weeks along, still twelve to go! I meant this blog post, of course.

Yes, dear friends and relations, we are expecting yet another blessing. Nope, we don't know what flavor Baby is, but I suspect we will before Birthing Day comes around. Stan is always so excited to find out, and I don't mind, since it gives me an excuse to do a bit of shopping.

Stan has decided that if Baby is a girl, he will pick the name himself and announce it at the birth. How's that for suspense? If it's a boy, Samuel has been at the top of the list for our next son since we were expecting Benjy. I have to say, it has been wonderful to have the whole "What shall we name the baby?" question settled and put to bed before we even had a BFP.

We're due July 25th, meaning, baby will most likely show up the following week. Stan is holding out for a 42-week pregnancy--you know, so he can finish up with all of the projects that his slave-driver---er, I mean, wife, has planned for him. Hmmm, I need to find a way to make it clear to him that I am happy to compromise if it means getting to hold our new little bundle a bit sooner.
