I snapped some cute pictures of the kids before church on Sunday. I thought they looked all ready for Valentine's day! I sure do love these guys. They make life so much fun and make me laugh every single day! I hope you all have a lovely Valentine's day this weekend!
Baby update...
I know I have been totally slacking off on posting anything to my blog. I really haven't taken any pictures and we really haven't done anything "fun" that might interest anyone. We are busily getting ready for this new little baby to get here, along with normal life of schoolwork, housework, mom-work, etc. I think the "nesting" period is definitely setting in - although it could just be that I have slacked off on cleaning my house and now it really needs a good cleaning. But, my load of cleaning has actually gotten lighter since I now get to inlist the help of my handsome 8 year old. (yes, there is a story behind that, but I won't go into details about it on here! Let's just say, he is earning some freedom back from his dad and I!) It's a good thing though because I move pretty slow these days and am pretty tired all the time.
Sunday I went to church and got to explain about 50 million times that, NO, I still have not had the baby yet! Yes people - I know I am HUGE and swollen and puffy and did I say..... HUGE!!!!!! But....yes, there is an end in sight! Relief is on the way!! I am checking in to the hospital at 5:30 AM Monday morning (the 16th) to be induced!! I'm scared, but excited all at the same time. My fabulous mom will be here on the 14th to take my place as mommy for a little while! I just love my mom being here! She is such a huge help! I told her she could stay for a month, but unfortunately, she has a life and will have to go back after 2 weeks! I feel quite blessed I get her here for that long though! So, as long as everything goes as planned, this little (unnamed - still trying to figure it out) baby boy will be here on Monday!
Well - unless I get really on top of things in the next bit, I probably won't post for a little bit. I still have lots of baby clothes to wash and fold, diapers to buy and cleaning to do. I will try to get some pictures as soon as I can.

I didn't realize it was KK's 1/2 birthday! Very cool indeed. I was thinking of you tonight and got excited that Baby Merrick will be here so soon! YAY Merrick!
I am so glad you are getting relief in a few days. I still have 2 months at least, but am VERY ready now. Carrying a boy has been a lot harder than the girls. At least you have Zach to help with house stuff. The kids look cute all dressed for church. Good luck on Monday, I'll be thinking about you.
Darling children you have Tracy! I'm so glad you posted. I am so excited for you on the 16th. We will be waiting to hear all the news. How exciting! Have you picked a name???? Come on, dish girl! Awwww, I miss you so much!
Just so you are aware...Merrick is NOT an option...JULIANNE!
Julianne you are so yucky! No Merrick! Thank you, Tracy, for having some sense.
We are excited for Baby Lee to come! I'm sure he will feel blessed all his life for being given my middle name as his first. I wish you didn't live so far away now. Perhaps someday we will get to meet him. Although, if it's anything like Owen, he will be over a year old before we do. Good luck w/ the delivery and we are looking forward to LOTS of pictures next week! You may have to tell Chris to update the blog or show Mom how to download pics for you.
Beautiful pictures!
I'll be thinking of you tomorrow when you start the delivery. Hope everything goes well. Can't wait to see pictures of your new baby boy. Take care of yourself...
