Man...what is up with these boards the past several months??? I've tried posting this several times all afternoon. Trying one more time...

Just trying to see if anyone's still around...I figured a new post might bring everyone out of the woodwork. Let's hear what's going on in everyone's lives - JAM mommas, our JAM "donuts" (haven't used that one in a while), siblings, and the entire family.

We're doing well around here (although as I start this post, the boys are half-playing, half-fighting, so goes my life ). The house is all in upheaval at the moment as we prepare the bedrooms (other than mine & Chris') for Ben's arrival in December. Toys seem to be everywhere (though when isn't that the case? ), and tons of baby stuff (Boppy, booster seat, vibrating bouncer, diapers, etc) have collected in our bedroom. It's a bit of a wreck right now, but at least things are getting done.

Christopher and Ian are moved into their bedroom (Ian's old room) which had been repainted as a "big boys" room. We just need to put up a window treatment, stuff on the walls, and finish out the closet (Chris and FIL will be putting in shelves and upper & lower rods for hanging clothes). Ben's room (Christopher's old room) has also been painted, so we need to move in the furniture, plus do a window treatment, and wall hangings. I can't wait until it's all finished!

Christopher and Ian are both doing well in school. We go for Christopher's first parent-teacher conference tonight (he's in kindergarten), but I'm pretty confident we'll hear almost all good things. I was able to volunteer one day in his class, and have kept in occasional contact with his teacher. Ian's teachers have called him an "old pro" since he knows the drill from when Christopher went to preschool. I'll be joining him on his first field trip tomorrow to the apple orchard/farm.

As of today, I'm 31 weeks along in my pregnancy. Things are going very well, although I'm at the point where I get tired pretty quickly. While shopping or cleaning house it doesn't take long before I'm all achy and ready to sit or lie down. I'm just remembering to enjoy it as much as I can since this will be our last child (I'll be getting a tubal ligation during my c-section), but I'm also looking SO forward to meeting my newest little man!

I think that's a pretty good summary of what's going on around here. Anyone else? Although I keep in touch with a few of you through facebook, I still miss you guys!
