Ramblings...

I have a ton of thoughts I need to get out so I can remember them another time. Oh but where to start??

• Had a great MNO on Wednesday with some girlfriends at a sushi restaurant. I have grown to CRAVE sushi during this pregnancy. Of course, just the kind with cooked stuff inside - no raw stuff for this mama.
• The dogs got themselves all tangled and twisted up around the tree I want hacked off in the front yard (I hate that thing). Poor Kazoo was tangled in Jay-Jay's chain and they were both wrapped so tightly around the tree. They couldn't reach their water and in this heat - poor guys. I figured this out when we got home from Home Depot and they hadn't moved an inch in the hour we had been gone.
• I sold my Canon camera and have ordered the Nikon D40. Hopefully this will satisfy me and I will quit selling and getting a new camera every 3 months.
• S is still doing pretty well potty training. He has had a bit more accidents than I am happy with but really - much less stressful than potty training L.
• L is doing great with swimming lessons. She is really enjoying them. Not quite up to swimming yet but going underwater and retrieving things from the bottom of the pool - AWESOME!!!
• It's less than 12 weeks until I have #3. Uh - what was I thinking?!? I am getting kinda nervous. I know I was nervous with S so it's about the same amount anxiety. We made a countdown chain the other day. That truly freaked me out, thinking about 84 days until the big event. L is so excited about it. S doesn't understand quite yet but he will when Baby Piper makes his/her appearance.
• This baby is super active now. And I am getting huge. And it's hot. HOT, HOT, HOT. I feel like an inferno inside and out these days. But I wouldn't give up being pregnant for anything. I love feeling the baby kick, seeing my big belly and knowing that I will be blessed with another Baby Piper soon makes it all worthwhile.
• Daddy Piper is getting ready to take a solo vacation. I am going to be home alone with these munchkins for a couple days. 1st time ever. Makes me thankful for good neighbors, in the event something should happen.
• Today's Friday which means a bath for the kids in Mama and Daddy's bath. They get a shower every day in their bathroom but Friday's they get a bath in our big tub. They both look forward to this every week :-)

I know there is more I wanted to write down but I am getting the "need to play with Mama" signal from Thing 1 and Thing 2 so off for now!
