This morning we went to K and J's new school and met their teachers. We signed them up to take the bus on the first day of school and I think they are all ready to go (school starts this Monday)! I remembered how I felt a year ago when I sent them off to kindergarten. I wasn't ready to send them off on the bus on the first day of school, that's for sure! But boy do I have independent little guys that can handle things like that. They say they have no worries about finding their classrooms or catching the right bus (remember, this is a new school for them!). I have confidence they can do it. They are sure different than what I was like as a little girl!

A year ago before going off to kindergarten.

My bumper pads are almost completely done. I love how they are turning out! I love how the babies room is coming together! More pictures to come when it's done.

For the first time, I have a desire to have maternity photos taken. I wouldn't have dreamed about it for my first or second pregnancies. But thinking that this is my last pregnancy, this is obviously my last chance to do this. I won't have a naked belly, - too many stretch marks for that. Not pretty. And actually, I have the most desire to have a photo shoto when my boys come up and rub my belly. So I think that most of the pictures would be of my covered belly and my boys faces and hands. Annie, Natalie, Brekke, where are you when I need you?

Do you know what's so cool about Abbi's new husband, Chad? He has two different colored eyes. I think that one is green and one is brown. Is that right, Abbi? Cool, huh!
