Oh, Drew-bee.......

The face of the precious little one who, is going through a stage of, NOT letting go of his Mama, although he will  take Daddy in a pinch! lol

Honestly, though, I don't mind! How could you refuse this sweet face? Even though my back is asking otherwise! =)

Just a little "Drew-bee" love for you, today!!

Blogging break....

This week I will be on a blogging break. I have sooooo many things I need to work on around the house and we are starting school after Labor Day!!!!!!! Yay!! So, I really need to take this time off of the computer and focus on getting everything ready and in order for us to start our school year off right!!

I hope to be back next week and let you know how everything is going. I truly appreciate everyone's prayers over our new school year. And, a huge thank you to all of my bloggy friends!! We appreciate your constant loving encouragement so very much!!

Have a great week!

~Love,
Julie

36 Weeks!!! (and a picture!!)

Okay, I finally have a picture to post!! =) Loving the new camera!! Now, if I could just get a new computer !! Ours is pretty much shot. Anyway, here I am at 36 weeks. It is an awful picture but you get the idea!

I am so tired and Drew is so huge! His feet are constantly trying to find more room but I have to tell him, there is no more room! lol. The dr's estimated him at already 7 lbs and 19 inches 2 weeks ago at the ultrasound. So, I don't know how big he will be. Anyone want to guess?! =)

We are not sleeping well and by we, I mean, everyone except Lily! She sleeps like a rock. Claire is going through some sort of attachment thing with me and I can't sleep for the baby being restless and my hips and back are killing me! So, Claire is up like every hour and I am up going to the bathroom just as much! Charlie has a hernia so that is fun. He is not sleeping good, either, but is trying to help me with Claire at night and get up at 4 am to go to work! It's FUN.

We are getting a lot done for baby Drew. I hope to post some pictures of gifts he has received and some of the girls, too. Hopefully, I will get that done. =)

Well, not much to report. I am not eating much or really wanting to eat at all right now. I think that I am just trying to prepare for the birth.

I will try to keep you updated and Thank you so much to everyone for the sweet comments and emails! They really lift me up! =)

Love & Prayers,

Julie
