Afternoons like today make you forget those horrible toddler tantrums and realize just how cool of a kid you have. 

Watching J blossom into a little man is the best gift in this world and I thank God every day for it. Knowing I get to do it all again is such a gift and I can't wait to see Clay become a little person like his brother. 

It's the little things. Grasping the concept of manners (please, thank you, sir, ma'am), him holding two sided conversations with you, watching the imagination grow and blossom that just make my heart swell.

We're still having to explain that mommy certainly cannot wrestle, or run, or bend over, or...well, at 36 weeks...do much of anything, but man, we're so close. Clay is almost here!!

Today we watched pills turn into little sea creature sponges. J especially liked the crab-man and octopus.

And this little boy loves looking at the world through rose-colored glasses. Literally.

He yells, "it's pink! Dark pink! The light is pink! The sky is pink!" (You get the idea)

Well I totally flaked and didn't post last night. Sorry!!

J Man went to a Big Brother/Big Sister class. He got to give a baby doll a pacifier, change a diaper, wrap the baby up and snuggle. He then got to see where he will come to visit Mommy and Clay in the hospital. He even got to see a real baby, though he didn't get to touch. ;)

He's super cool

Clay got an awesome gift today!!

Silly boy!!

Grandpa has all the pups (and grandkids) trained to sit pretty for popcorn.

J can't catch his popcorn in his mouth like the pups can, though.

Today we scheduled my c-section. April 21!! Less than a month away and this sweet boy will be in my arms and NOT punching my internal organs! Yay! 

I spent my first day of Spring Break grading papers. Mi-Mi (x2) helped! 

J Man is a wild one! He told my stomach today that I'm "his mommy." He repeated it 5x's in case me or Clay missed it. So, now we're talking about sharing mommy and daddy with Clay. He goes to a big brother class on Sunday. Hopefully that will help.

Aunt Ana and Uncle Nick moved into their new house today!! Daddy helped all day and Mommy and J Man went over after J's nap. They are so much closer to St Charles now so everyone is thrilled! :)

Mommy is on Spring Break!! Yay!! J Man will go to school and mommy will clean out cabinets and pantries in prep for Clay's arrival. It's almost here!! Probably 4 weeks, though I don't have an official date yet. Hopefully I can get that on Monday.

He steals my heart over and over and over...
