I'm so horrible at blogging lately! I'm so disappointed as I'm sure all of my readers are...HA, no one reads this. BUT in case you do here is how October is shaping up.
*In all honesty, my Chloe and I are having so much fun together. She is always making me laugh. The kid says the funniest things. I don't know how she comes up with half of it. Since these are my last few weeks with just her I have really made it an effort to turn off the movies/tv to spend more quality time with her, reading books, playing with play dough, puzzles and riding her bike. Once baby brother gets here there will be plenty of movie/tv time so I might as well keep her stimulated now. I have also made it a conscience effort to hold her more, kiss her more and snuggle her more. Every morning we have been snuggling in my bed and I just cherish that moment. She is my little baby...having another baby won't make her a baby any more she is going to be a BIG sister which puts her in a big girl category. Scary!
*We are so nesting...getting ready for baby brother. I am trying to prepare Chloe the best I can for a new addition, I'm not sure she totally understands that baby brother is coming out of my tummy soon and will be a real baby in our home. I am definitley feeling the nesting boost of energy. Cleaning, sewing, laundry, organizing and on the go! Then by the end of the day I'm back to my sluggish pregnant self and crash...but hey...I am getting so much better sleep! Which is so great considering those nights are soon to be over.
*Baby brother is measuring 9 DAYS early! That means I'm due the 20th but he is measuring for 11/11/11...how awesome would that be...he won't come that early but I would be stoked if he did. What is scary is if he does come closer to his due date he's gonna be big...like 8lbs big and Chloe was only 6lbs 10oz! Ahhh...I'm kind of freaking out...I'm accepting all prayers for our little baby to come early and healthy.
*I'm really anxious to meet him...what is he going to look like? Me or Michael? Soo curious.
*And what in the world are we naming him?? Well we have it narrowed down to 2...yay! I'm usually one to totally spill the beans on my name...and will if you ask but recently we have been set on the name and a few people who are very close to us have given us "Their" opinion and even though I don't care what people think...some people can just be rude and I think when people are so up front with how they feel towards a name anyone is bound to be a little hesitant. BUT WHATEVER...it's my baby...I will name him what I want and next time I know not to share what we are thinking with you.
*Have I mentioned I'm such an angry, mean, feisty and emotional pregnant lady...wow...I never knew I was capable of being soo full of these emotions...watch out....seriously! The tiniest thing will send me over the edge...there is not much room for patience. I'm sure I will be my normal self sometime soon...I hope!
*We are getting ready for Halloween. Chloe is going to be Tinkerbell. She is obsessed...it's working out perfectly. We are going to my sister's wards trunk or treat (Since ours doesn't have one this year?) on Friday...I'm excited to see Chloe figure out how trick or treating works. She loves herself some candy and I'm sure she will have no problem catching on.
Well more on Halloween to come! And about 4 more weeks till baby brother gets here...YAY!!!

I'm still reading. :)
Good luck with your last few weeks. I need a nesting stage so I can get settled in our new house.
Oh, and an 8-pound baby's not so bad. I've had 2!
So glad for the update. Can't wait to see you in a couple weeks :)
Wahoo for an update! I can't believe how big Chloe is getting. And I am SO excited to see your new baby! With you as his mother he is destined to be adorable!
