I just booked plane tickets for the kids and me (I?) to go to Cali for Thanksgiving. DH works that whole weekend and I decided to hell with the kids and me (I?) sitting around here by ourselves. WOOHOOOOOOO!

DD's verbal skills are insane and she is constantly cracking me up with things she says:
"Mommy, I have a little problem."
"Maybe we could talk about this outside."
and from last night, she "read" me my fortune from the fortune cookie: "Your fortune says, 'Mommy is going to drink water!'"
ETA: oh AND, we get to see my brother and niece this weekend! I haven't seen my niece since last December, and she has never met any of her cousins. I can't wait!
i was the lunch mom at MDO today to help with thanksgiving feast and the look on your kid(s) face when they see you unexpectedly at school = priceless joy. gotta bottle that up.
My good thing is that DS2 has gone pee in the potty 3 times in the last few days. I don't want to jinx it, but maybe, just maybe, he's getting the hang of potty training!
Even though DH gets things at the grocery store I'd rather he left there - he also does awesome things like get whatever random ingredient I need for a recipe, and always keeps the wine cabinet stocked.
My 4yo is hilarious. She came home from school this week singing "put another diamond in the juice box, baby!" Apparently a friend at school was teaching her a little Joan Jett and that's how she heard it. Love it!
I get to meet up with one of my very best friends from college this weekend; I haven't seen him in almost 8 years, so he gets to meet DH and DD and I'm very excited. I also get to see my best friend next week who I've known since I was 3, and I cannot wait. I love the holiday visits!
**formerly katattack - stupid bump made me change it**
DH and I found out the house that we are going to be able to buy the new house. I've literally had the worst few months of my life between my mom, my billing issue with NAMC, and this house so I'm VERY thankful we'll be able to move to a bigger house with much more space than our current one. I feel like this a house that we can live in for a long time which is a nice feeling to have.

I love changing DS's diaper in the middle of the night. I get such joy when I pull those chunky little legs out of his jammies, they are so cute I just want to nibble on them. He loves having his diaper changed so I also get lots of smiles and that makes getting up twice a night worth every second.
I love good things posts!! I got to see my OB today for my post partum visit got a big hug and promise to see her in January when I'm knocked up again (hopefully). Plus got the green light for sexy time!
Seriously ladies... that's a good thing! In the past 4 months it's only happend once and that was a major illegal act which brought guilt.

Our Rainbow Baby is on the Way!
I really that DS still really loves wearing his footie pajamas. I love babies in footie pajamas and this is helping me hold on to my "baby." I also love that her likes to randomly whispers "I love you mommy" to me in the evenings. Seriously last night he must have told me 5 or 6 times.
Wanted to add I'm excited about HH on Friday because austxgrl is going and I get to hear about her surprise wedding.
I'm super excited too!! And that I can pig out on queso and margs and not worry about fitting into a wedding dress!! Eeeeek! But most of all, I'm super excited to see you and whoever else is coming!
I love reading y'alls good things! And since my B&M post was so VERY B&Mish, I'll add some ying to that myself.
DS never ceases to amaze me and make me laugh. Yesterday when he stayed home from schoo sick again (but wasn't sick anymore, just couldn't go to school within 24hrs of having a fever) we had a blast playing in the rain. He said, "It's a beautiful day to spend with Logan and Mommy!". He randomly tells me or DH that he loves us: "Mommy?" "Yeah, buddy?" "I wuff you". He sings everything, and all kinds of songs he learns at school that I don't know; he says the entire dinner prayer every night at dinner; he has an awesome imagination and it makes me so so so happy to see him play and act stuff out; and he is so freaking excited to meet his baby brother, and talks about it constantly. He's more excited for that, than for Santa to come! He is truly the best thing ever.
After a year of hellacious health insurance wrought with problem after problem and error after error, my employer is switching to a new company/plan in January which will be SO MUCH BETTER and easier to deal with, and cheaper. Not soon enough for me to take advantage of it with this pregnancy, but still. Cannot come soon enough.
Tomorrow is my 35/35 day. I am just so stinking anxious to meet this little bugger that I think I'm about to burst! And yesterday I was picturing in my head, DS coming to the hospital and meeting him for the first time and I teared up and could have sworn that my heart was going to bust out of my chest. Gah- I'm such a softie!

LOVE the curls, llcg! Adorable.

I have nothing that I can talk about yet, but DH and I have agreed on some big, HUGE changes in our life that I'm so excited.
P.S. LLCG - CURLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sunday: I went out for dinner with a friend and when I got home, DS ran to me and gave me a huge hug. Best feeling ever.
Yesterday: DH got an award at work. I'm glad that somebody's recognizing all that he does over there because his last boss was unbearable.
Today for me: I tested my injured foot out on a run today during lunch and managed to run 3 miles. I think these lunch runs might become a norm.
