- Steve right now: Is having a hard and stressful week at work and I feel sad for him but it is also weird because Steve is NEVER grumpy or frazzled by anything. I made dinner last night so he could relax and let me tell you, it was not pretty (but thankfully it tasted good). I am so grateful for my husband and everything about him. He is such a great dad, and cute too : )
- Raleigh right now: Is the sweetest, smartest boy you ever met (feel free to gag yourself, lol). But really, I don't know where it came from. One minute he was throwing tantrums and toys and taking off his diaper in his crib and peeing all over the place (TMI), and the next he was playing pretend with his stuffed animals (feeding them, putting them to bed, changing their clothes, helping them clap, etc.). His nurturing side literally came out of nowhere, but I am just so grateful it showed up!! He loves to read right now and is pretty good at entertaining himself while I run around like a chicken with my head cut off. (Can't... stop... nesting!)
- Trenton right now: Is measuring a little big for his 'age' and is a very active little boy! He is about 30 and a half weeks and I have no complaints about being pregnant this time around (knock on wood). I have to flip over every couple hours at night because my arms and legs fall asleep so quickly, but I guess that's good practice for waking up every couple hours to feed a baby, right? I am so excited to meet little Trent! Is it May yet gosh darnit??
- Me right now: I fluctuate between feeling incredibly bored and overwhelmingly busy (and always a little tired). I am glad I am bored today though, I need a little break from life (outside my apartment at least). One thing I know for sure is that I am happy. I love my little family and I love being able to spend my days with Raleigh, and our nights and weekends with Steve. I haven't felt very creative or inspired lately, so my sewing machine is probably feeling neglected but at least I am getting more sleep. I am trying not to make very many new treats lately either. Sorry if you've been looking out for them...
Anyways, that's about all I can muster right now, it is painful for me to type/write this kind of stuff out. I'm already a little embarrassed. Anyways, maybe on a day when Raleigh and Trenton are both crying and I am exhausted beyond comprehension, I can look at this post and remember how peaceful and happy life was and will be again. Speaking of peace, it's nap time so I better get some rest before Raleigh wakes up!

Why would you be embarrassed to write that? I love to know what's going on with your beautiful family! Keep us posted!
Ah, I love hearing about your little family. Can't wait to hear the funny Raleigh-Trenton stories that are sure to come. :)
love the written update! way to go. :)
There is No reason to be embareesed. But this is coming from someone who writes every little detail about my life on my blog. Now that I think about it, should I be embaressed? If I dont think about it, I wont care. But now you have me worried. LOL. But you know me, I am an over analyzer.
Anywho. I think ral and Kroten are at the same stage, it seemed like overnight he became this awsome charming little man and now I love his little personality. And he is totally into books right now too. I am sure they are on the same wave length. it is good to know that they are similar, they are the same age I guess.
I LOVE that you post sewing stuff and treat ideas. i like your blog but more updates on life would be fantastic too.
PS, I want to know more about how you are nesting. I loved nesting and cant wait to feel it again. Are you enjoying it or is it mroe annoying?
Whew, that was a long comment.
Ps thanks for the shout out. I honestly did not expect ANYONE to read that big fat long rant of a post, but I am glad that you did and that you took it to heart. Your the best.
Hi Katie, there is no reason to be embarrased about writing your thoughts and daily activities; since I have not seen you in years, it is nice to be able to know how your life is and how happy you truly are. Seeing Raleigh grown up thru your eyes and words is pretty cool. I am hoping that one day, I get to meet him and Steve and Trenton. Please keep it up; I truly enjoy your blogs. We love you, Aunt Lorena
I'm glad I scrolled down. I almost missed reading this post! I love it! Keep posting ones like this. I'm glad you feel pretty good with this pregnancy. That is such a blessing. Raleigh is such a sweet little guy! We miss you!
