Today actually feels like spring...

We actually had sunny skies and temperatures in the 50s today... giving us a little bit of hope that Spring is on it's way. Although the weather said it's supposed to snow Saturday... Cade loves being outside and it's been so hard to keep him cooped up inside because of the cold weather and wind. I hope tomorrow will be nice so we can go to the park and play and so he can run some of his energy off.

I'm now 35 weeks along... 5 more to go. I really don't know if I'll go late like with Cade or maybe earlier this time. I'm really hoping to make it to 39 weeks but not go late like I did before. Mark will have to leave to work out of town, but they will be working 10's so they will be gone only 4 days. I HAVE to plan to have this kid Friday-Sunday! Yea... we'll work on that. I've been feeling really good, although my hips kill me when I try to move at night. I had some contractions last night that woke me up but just a few so that was relieving! We have finally started to clean out the spare room for the baby. Now we just need to rearrange some furniture so that the crib and changing table is in there.

Mark's started a new venture building decks and landscaping. He's working on a nice deck right now. We're hoping that this will take off this summer so that we can pay off some debt and save a bit too. He's so good at things like this and I know he'll do just fine!

Cade's been a handful.. I think because i'm slow and tired and a wee bit cranky at times. Although he's been speaking in sentences. It's so awesome to see him grow and develop. Yesterday he caught a fly.. I know a true boy! I asked him what his fly was named. He said Cade. I said well shouldnt' he have a different name than yours? What about Fred? So Fred it was. Later he came to me and said.. Oooh I squished Fred. Fred's squished. I told him to put Fred in the garbage so he did, then he lifted the lid and said, ooooh poor Fred. It was hilarious. He seems to have 3 moods. Crying, whining, and hyper than all getout. Today, he actually sat with me for a little bit and watched cartoons and that made it all better!
