Funnies from Will...

"It just happens"

"My take look it"-which means, I want to look at it.

"Don't fall. My might break my head. My cry. Daddy and Mommy hold me. Make it all better."

"What's going on in here"

"How about this one"

"Does that look right? No. Does that look right? No. How about now? Yes"

"Goodness Gracious"

Peanut-butter Sam for Peter Sam-Thomas the Train character

"Whatcha doing"

"Mommy's Baby Boy...no...Daddy's Baby Boy"-A constant teaser game for me and Mike

Disciplining the birds outside...(not sure who he sounds like) "Shoo birds. Go away right now. 1....2....3. Ok, Time out or a spanking." Once I heard this one, and laughed, I changed my 'habits' of discipline. No more counting...no more 'right now' statements...no more time out or spanking choice. It is amazing what your kids can teach you about yourself.

My "Big" Baby Boy

As I slowly get the nursery ready, unpacked, organized, and somewhat arranged, Will is always somewhere beneath me, 'helping' me...or rather playing with all the baby toys. It is almost like he remembers each and every one of them. Just a few days ago, I found him in the baby bed playing with the mobile. Later that day, as we got ready for nap time, he asked me "Mommy, rock your baby boy". Well, first of all, how could I resist that invitation...snuggle time with mommy! But, I am getting the feeling that he still doesn't get this whole baby brother thing yet. He refers to the nursery as his room...the rocker is his rocker...the toys are his toys. I always remind him that, yes they were his things, but now he needs to share them with brother and teach him how to play with them. He is ok with that answer for now.

I feel like I should add something.....

It has been over a month since I last blogged....sorry about that. There is no excuse except I am, well, lazy, pregnant, busy with Will, etc.... So, I feel like I should at least add something to the blog to keep it current. So, let's see....

*I am getting big. (Maybe a picture will appear soon) I don't sleep much any more. I can't find a comfortable position, but I only have so many options, my side or my back. My back is not really an option. It is just as uncomfortable and I can't breath very well. I really can't wait to sleep on my tummy again. As you can see on the ticker below, I have less than 100 days until this baby boy (no name) makes his arrival. Wow.

*Will is busy. He is so funny, sweet, and defiant all balled together. Well, he is 3 so what do you expect. He is completely potty trained which is such a relief. It is so easy now...and less stuff to carry around. Well, for a few more months anyways.

*The nursery is getting put together very slowly. I just got the rocking chair in from Wal-mart. I must say that I am impressed by the purchase. I didn't know what to expect from Wal-mart online furniture, but it is every bit the same chair as the ones from Pottery Barn but much, much cheaper. I am glad to have a comfortable chair this time around. Maybe now, Mike will use it more...ha. Of course, Will thought it was his chair, and still does. Could be interesting. Mike plans on painting the room in a few weeks. Still not sure what color, so any suggestions would be helpful. Then, all we need is a rug and the room should be pretty much done.

That is pretty much the gist of what is going on with the Plemons family. Busy weekly routines and restful weekends consume our days. I am thankful for normalcy and for peace in where we are now. I'll try to keep up the blogging, but don't hold your breath.
