4 weeks to go~

Well,  it's official.  I'm tired of being pregnant!  Olivia, I love you but I'm ready to kick you out!!  My body is just tired,  the fact that she's breech certainly is lending a hand - but I'm ready to be done and just see her sweet little face!  I know, I know - poor Michelle... wah, wah!  I get it, I know I don't need sympathy.. sometimes it's just nice to get!  
My sweet Mother and Sister-in-law {along with the girls at work} had a baby shower for me yesterday.   What a fun surprise, with tons and tons of cute little pink outfits and a diaper cake made special by her Papa!  When I came home with all the goods, Brady was very happy to go through them and pick out what would be okay for a boy to play with and what would most definitely not be okay {who is he kidding?  Any boy with a cabbage patch doll will play with almost anything}. 
Brady has most certainly been showing signs of a boy about to become a big brother and he's not sure how this will affect him.  He asks at least 10 times a day if I REALLY love him.. poor little guy.  He has to know that he will always be loved and that will never, ever change!  He is one of the most loving little kids you will ever meet... aside from being a bit of a bully himself!  Last week the neighbor boy was being a little stinky to Jack and wouldn't let him play, so Brady decided he was going to do something about it.  Jason heard this conversation while outside doing yard work - 

Brady:  I'm going to get even with those guys Jack {smacking his fist into the palm of his other hand} 

Jack doesn't say anything, he just sits and listens to his little brother.  In the meantime Brady goes next door and stands at the end of the driveway - staring and thinking.. he comes back to report to Jack.

Brady:  I don't know Jack, the look kinda big!  

Oh man.. that kid is so much trouble!  He really wanted to pound someone for hurting his brothers feelings but I'm proud to say he thought it through {only because they were bigger} and instead of resorting to violence {this once} he let it go.  

What will he be like with a little sister?  Look out world!  

The boys went skiing a couple weekends ago and I'm proud to say Jack went on the chair lift all by himself and was skiing with poles for the first time ever!  Way to go!  He loves skiing, and loves it even more when he gets to spend the whole morning with dad instead of in lessons.  This was Brady's first ski trip and he did great!  He loved the lessons and kept it up the whole time!  I do have pictures but will have to post later.  

Time to go do laundry or some other chore I have put off for the last 30 minutes! 
Love, Michelle
