April is a pretty out of control month in our household. We have three birthdays (Christian's is today, Aidan's is on the 14th, and Ethan's is on the 25th). Add those to the fact that my brother got married on Saturday, and Easter on Sunday, and moving baby stuff from storage in northern Utah down to our house and trying to get ready for a baby (and all of the other regular stuff, like cleaning house and making meals) and I feel a little frazzled. I have been spewing Princess Bride quotes in my head all morning long: "I have my marriage to prepare for, my wife to murder, and Guilder to blame for it. I'm swamped." and "The Cliffs of Insanity!" (but for me it is the month of insanity). But I'm not complaining, I love the excitement of the month. I just feel a tad overwhelmed, and the contractions are not slowing down. And now I realize I am blathering away and I have probably lost most people by the end of this paragraph because I'm not making sense anyway and I am thinking in run-on sentences. Seriously, I want the pregnancy brain to go away.
Cute cousins - Sierra, Landen, Ethan, Aidan (out of focus, I know. I'm a horrible picture-taker.)

A lovely picture of my 32 week belly and the wedding cake. Thanks Aidan.

Happy birthday to my dear husband! He has been spoiled with golf clubs, golf clubs and more golf clubs. And I made him a lemon meringue pie last night so he could have it for breakfast this morning (I just use the recipe from the Better Homes & Gardens cookbook). He said it was the best I have ever made. That's because I put so much love in it (and extra lemon rind).

I do sort of love weddings.
Happy birthday to Christian!
Happy Birthday Christian. We also have 3 b-days this month and also on the 14 and 25 (and we have one on March 30 so this month is a busy one for us too). You look great!!!
I agree. You look wonderful preggers. Keep busy it makes the waiting seem less trying.
I'm officially tired just reading about your month!
Happy times, if crazy!
Busy---but sounds fun at least:) That first Princess Bride quote is my all-time favorite.
you already know , but we got the 2,5, 8th for birthdays at our house, plus a million other stuff ! lol
ok you look so great pregnant girl, me not so much, I always blow up thanks to all my water retention. ;)
Mahwage is was brought you togevah, on Saturday.
I heart Princess Bride. Hope you can contain the madness!!!!
You look so good! I just read your natural vs. epidural post. I have had one of each and I wish you the best in your decision. Having my daughter naturally was the best decision I ever made. By the end, and don't get me wrong it isn't easy, but I truly felt the power and beauty of being a woman. It was an incredible experience.
Happy Birthday to your hubby!! And I really like the picture of the 2 of you together--you look fabulous. Oh yeah--I also like the pic of your preggers belly!!
A wedding, I love weddings! Drinks all around! (of course, they'll be virgin drinks...)
You look fabulous. I love your necklace. I hope you get through the craziness with a little of your mind intact, and I hope these last 2 months go by quickly without much misery for you.
Happy Birthday to your hubby! March is kinda CRAZY for us--3 March birthdays--my daughter's, mine AND my hubby's.
April is getting busy as well.
hubby has conferences to attend, I have conferences to attend..WHEW! Busy.
Training sessions to attend for hubby--YIKES.
But I will not forget to thank Heavenly Father for the ride. I am grateful i'm still around to enjoy it--despite all the busy ness...:)
Well, take it easy, or you're going to add yet another birthday to April!
You look great! :)
Wow! That is a lot of birthdays in one month.
And yes, I very much approve of the ice cream eating method :)
