This and That

Sorry I've been a bad blogger lately! Just can't seem to get motivated...maybe it's the 95 degree (should feel like it's over 100 with the humidity) weather we're having today and the extra 30 lbs. I'm carrying around! Makes you just want to lay around and do nothing! Or could it be that I'm just lazy these days??? Nothing much going on around here. Mick is trying to finish his summer classes before the baby gets here....he has this week left and then finals next week. After the baby is born he will start his internship with the DA. He is really excited! He got two new suits when his Dad was here, so he will look extra handsome at work! As for me and my job...trying to wrap things up before I go on maternity leave. It will be nice to have a break from my job...even if it means less sleep and adjusting to having 2 children!

Graham is....well, Graham! He is testing his limits with us daily and wants to do everything "by myself"....which is great except that it takes a lot longer to get dressed, get out the door, etc. I'm very interested in seeing how he will be with his baby brother. He still tells me that he wants a sister and not a brother and that he wants to name the baby "pants". I guess that's as good of name as any...seeing we still haven't decided on a name!

Below are some recent pictures of Graham. Mick bought him some new legos...the "big boy" legos that have all the small pieces! Fun times! I don't know who is enjoying them more, Mick or Graham. Well, the first picture is what you get when Mommy tries to build a truck like the one in the picture....obviously Graham did not like the way I built it. He was so mad that I couldn't build it just like the one in the picture....I thought I did a pretty good job.



The way I built it....

The way it should have been built according to Graham

There is clearly no "T" on your truck. I can't blame him :)

I'm pretty impressed with your truck-that takes talent!

I'm praying for you guys and your upcoming transition daily! hang in there and enjoy your one-on-one quality time with Graham!

I think your truck is awesome! I'm sure I will go through that with Anderson in a couple of years.

As far as the name thing, my new top pick is Griffin. Griffin and Graham sounds cool.

Thanks for the blog, I was really started to miss you guys!

He looks so grown up with the new hair cut! Pants Kennedy - hmmmm, has a nice ring to it. I don't know maybe you should consider it. Pants William Kennedy - kinda like it! Why don't we meet the baby and decide if that moniker fits?

Guess who?

Oh so funny! So excited to meet the next "baby Jesus or "Pants Kennedy!" I think about you guys all the time, can't wait for you to get back here. I have been scoping houses on my walks! :)
By the way, your truck was really good, way better than I could have done.

Wow - I should probably start practicing with the Legos NOW...who knew???

I can't believe you are due in 16 days, and STILL don't have a name picked out! I guess if it boils down to it, Pants will work just fine. We can always say it's a family name! BTW...Graham's haircut makes him look like such a big boy. I can't believe how big he's getting! Miss you guys...

Riley and I are so bored with this post! And you have BIG news to share.
I've been looking for a woobie for JP, but so far haven't found the brown we want. I do have a list of new stores for my elf and I to check out though.

Ta, Ta for now. Guess who?

When are you gonna have this baby already! I keep checking for news of his arrival or soon-to-be arrival. We are praying for you guys!
