Managing and mothering takes up time...

Well, I haven't been on the blog in a LONG time. Holy smokes! I've been planning posts to do but the actual act has been difficult as I'd rather nap while Oakley naps than write on the blog. Pregnancy problems. True story.

Life has been a whirlwind for us. I am down to four weeks remaining until my due date which is pretty exciting! Matt has been busy with work, climbing, lately shovelling, and working on a really awesome website that will hopefully be up and running in April. I'll post something about it when it's complete. Oakley has been busy busy busy. He is saying more words although still not that much of a talker. He'd rather be playing. His turkey noise is the absolute cutest. I love it! He graduated to a toddler bed after almost falling out of his crib in an escape attempt. Nursery started and he loves it there. He wants to run to the nursery as soon as Sacrament meeting is over. So fun. I've been managing townhouses for the last 4.5 months and it is a lot of work! I am so impressed with moms that do it for longer periods of time. Some days, I just want to throw in the towel. It's been good though. I'm learning lots and getting to interact with other adults. I have made 36 freezer meals for after this baby arrives and I have done all of the Christmas shopping except a few things for Oakley and Matt. Pretty good, I think. We are excited for this little one to join our family. It melts my heart when I ask Oakley where Mama's baby is and he points to my belly and then gives it cuddles. So sweet. Hopefully he's just as sweet to the real baby. :)

So, this really is just a quick update for those that are interested in our lives. I will try to get some posts up of our October adventures with pictures. I know you all love pictures. :) I hope all of you are having a splendid winter and that you stay warm, especially on a day like today.

P.S. Any suggestions for names for baby boy can be left in the comments. We're cutting it close this time. :)
