Sick and Tired!

So I know it has been awhile since I posted last. But I have a very good reason. We are expecting a new baby. With that though there have been lots of sick and tired days. The baby is due on April 8th and so far the ultrasound shows that everything is going good. I don't think that I am as sick as I have been with the other pregnancies but Patrick thinks that I just don't remember. On most days I feel like I am managing things just fine. If I just eat when I am suppose to, I usually feel OK. I don't know if I can contribute this to a different pregnancy or a stage in life. I don't think I have the option to be sick and not cook food. I don't have the option to lay in bed and just feel sick. So here we are just trying to keep the dirty dishes out of the sink and the house under control. We just told the girls on Monday. We were waiting till the first Drs. appiontment to make sure that everything was for sure OK. They were so excited! It has been all the talk around here - Our girls kept asking when we were going to have a baby because "everyone else is". So now Lexy can't stop patting my belly (which is already growing) and they have to say goodbye to the baby before they go to school. It is an exciting time, but I have to say it has been overwhelming. I keep having dreams with babies -that aren't mine- and they aren't being taken care of. For some reason when I find the babies their diapers are never changed. Is this a sign of some fear I have? So aside from being so tired that I am in bed at 8 o'clock and gaggin everytime I brush my teeth. I think we will survive this one-we shall see!

First Day of School - 5 weeks late!

Here are Lexy and Kalley at school on the first day. I always take a picture of them by this wall so I can compare how much they have grown since the last year.
Cassidy started preschool 3 weeks later but here is her showing off her artwork from the first day.
