Weekly update

It's a rainy, Friday morning. Gus is playing in his room. I'm trying to wake up (wish I could have more coffee!) I will say sleeping in our house has been much better this past week, knock on wood. Gus has seemingly gone back to his old, great sleeping ways, although he woke and cried at 12:30 a.m. this morning. I checked on him and held him for a bit and he crashed again. Maybe a bad dream? Who knows. We also relocated the cats down to the basement at night, and as guilty as I feel, it's wonderful for our sleep. It has made a huge difference. I only really feel guilty towards Ruby, b/c he has slept with us since I adopted him 10 years ago (when he was just weeks old). But it's ok.

This weekend should be pretty low key. I really need to weed my garden and plant some stuff, but with all the rain I'm not sure how much will happen. Tomorrow is Ash's 2nd birthday party. It should be fun. I worry a little b/c the party is at noon and Gus' nap is at 12:30...so he's going to either have to skip his nap or take it later in the day. I hope he'll just crash for an hour or so after the party. We will see...but the party should be fun. I can't believe these kids are turning 2!

So here's a photo of me at 28 weeks pregnant. I should probably clean up the room before taking these photos, but I never think to do it. The baby is kicking often and we actually saw my stomach move last night. Less than three months to go...hopefully! Every time I look at a photo of myself I realize how much more my face is filling out in this pregnancy. It's weird how pregnancies can be so different. Oh, and I'm anxiously awaiting news that my friend, Jessica, has had her baby. She is due May 11, so we're just waiting to hear the great news! The crazy part is that Jessica doesn't know the sex of the baby but her husband, Nick, does. We'll all know soon enough. Hilarious.

Here's a fun video of Gus just being Gus. Oh, no worries, Ruby didn't hurt him. Fun with cats and toddlers. Gus is my little sugar pants, he is.
