47 days and counting

Its been quite a while since I updated last. It has been so busy, I am so surprised that Benjamin has stayed in the oven with all the commotion. He's probably thinking its better in there than in the real world. lol I just added up how many days are left until his due date and I can't even believe that its only 47 days... Gosh this flew by. 6 weeks and some days to get into our new home (we FINALLY got approved for a rental townhome that is just perfect for our little family.) THANK GOD! It was such a relief! 3 bed two bath with a little yard for Capone. I can't wait to get out of that stinking apartment. AND its on Linsday and Baseline, back on the RIGHT side of the 60 ;) With Thanksgiving next week and then moving the weekend of the 12th, Christmas following 13 days later, it will be a busy busy 47 days. I can't even imagine when it will slow down. I wanted to add some pictures from halloween, I totally see this not happenind until after the 7th of January along with Thanksgiving, Christmas, Newborn pictures... all meshed into one update. So if this is the case. To EVERYONE "Happy Thanksgiving" "Merry Christmas" "Happy New Year!" :D

Mason is just so stinking big. I can't get over how many words that he has learned and how well he interacts with us when we ask for his help or for him to do something. He is such a big boy, and has his pout face down pat. If he doesn't get what he wants or he is in trouble, he will just turn around and stick out his bottom lip and pout. Its the funniest thing. Although we never give in, he seems to think we might if he continues, its so stinkin cute, I don't mind him doing that. I would rather the pout then a fit.

Another news update: My mom and her hubby are moving to the valley! You have no idea how great this is! They will be staying with us for a couple months until they are able to find a home out here. What perfect timing, My mom will be out here just in time to be an extra hand when Mason becomes a big brother. What a relief to have her here not only here for him but for my sanity.

My biggest goal at this time is to keep Benji cooking until we at least move into the new place. I don't even want to think about going into labor while we are still in the apartment, and everything being half packed. Thats terrifying to me! So to you Benji.... stay put even though mommy may be pushing you around as you stick you knee in my ribs or put your noggin right there.......... stick it out with mommy, at least until the 15th of December....

Have a fantastic holiday season everyone, may yours be merry
