oh my.....
So, my intentions to take a few months off, perhaps a summer break, has now turned into half a year of not doing the blog.
NO WAY!
There's no use in playing catch up. Let's just start from this moment, a good practice for me.
Needless to say we've been busy.
But who isn't
with two small kids?? Our days are packed, just doing all the normal
things. And they're just going to get busier -hint hint-....
I've never really caught up after getting back from India...
my inbox still has dozens of emails unopened... projects started or
dreamed of.... heck, the Christmas tree is still up!
The weather here has been cold, but not cold enough to snow... I know, I know... most of you reading this in the states might be jealous - but I can tell you, a winter (especially the holidays) without snow (ok, we had snow ONE day) is just wrong. Without the nice dusting of snow covering all the dead things it's totally different. I think we can all agree something in between the excessive snow/cold in the states and the lack of it here is a nice compromise.
Otherwise the pic above and the few below sum up the boys at the moment. Marlo is FULL on in imitation phase. And he can manage to accomplish most things Anjun can... crawling up on things
here they are in the car both simultaneously pulling on the seat belts....
One sits down at the base of the stairs to take shoes off, and so does the other! As you can see, and imagine, this is ADORABLY cute. And sometimes annoying.
They even have moments where they share, or do something sweet for each other. Notice I said "moments". Unfortunately it's still not the norm. But getting much better...
But
if you've made it this far, and are actually reading and not just
cruising through to look at all the cute pics of the fam (which is also
ok) then you get a little surprise. Earlier I said it's just going to
get busier... no, I'm not just talking about a spring full of projects and trips... summer with visitors and in the fall Anjun starting Kindergarten.... soon Sebastian and I will be outnumbered!
That's right, baby number 3 will arrive in August!!!!!
And we couldn't be happier!!!! or more tired :)
For those of you interested, this pregnancy has been totally different than my previous... with Anjun and Marlo I had absolutely NO morning sickness.... With this one I had it quite bad. So bad I thought I had a virus. Otherwise I'm plagued with exhaustion. Not necessarily could fall asleep at any moment exhaustion (don't get me wrong, I have been known to fall asleep at basically the same time the kids went to bed) but overall more like a complete drain of energy.
Once I make it to the end of the day, dinner settles in my stomach, and my body lets me know that it's done all it can. That's it. Lay down... rest... which, I must say, with a 3 year old and 1 1/2 old is IMPOSSIBLE.
I promise I'll keep the blog up, at least until the baby comes.... then we'll see :)
LOVE
The Weddings
