Update

I don't have any new pictures or really anything new going on, but it's been so long since my last post, I figured I'd just ramble for a minute.

Sophie is LOVING school, she wishes it was every day instead of twice a week, but I couldn't handle her being gone any more! She has officially moved to her 'big girl' room in the basement. I will get pictures soon, I just really want to wait till we get her headboard painted and in there (hopefully this weekend). It is such a pretty room, but one that can grow with her. She loves sleeping in there and has had no problems at all (knock on wood). She even braves the semi-darkness to come up and get me in the morning (I have several nightlights, but it's still pretty dark).

We are in the process of choosing a color for baby Duck's room (for those of you who haven't heard, this is what Sophie calls him, she refuses to call him anything else and I've picked up the habit!). I'm looking for a nice steel-blue. I'd like for it to be done next weekend at the latest so I can really start getting ready. Less than 10 weeks to go! It seems like a long time, until you count the weekends (which is the only time Phillip has to do stuff), then it isn't long at all!!

I've been doing really good this pregnancy, my blood pressure is lower than it has been in years and so far no other major issues, thank goodness!

Phillip is busy at work (as usual). He's trying to get everything set up so he doesn't have to work such long hours after Duck comes, but it means long hours right now!

It will be a different Holiday Season for us this year. We'll be staying home for both Thanksgiving and Christmas with no visitors. It's how I want it seeing as I'll be about to pop for Thanksgiving and with a brand new baby at Christmas. We're hoping to bless him the first Sunday in January, so we will still get to see family, just not on the Holidays.

Well, Sophie is begging me to get off, so I'd better go start getting ready for the day! Love you all and I'll get some new pictures soon. . .
