Overcooked...

My due date has now come and gone...and yes, I am still pregnant. Thankfully, I am feeling good and grateful to have some extra time to prepare and enjoy life with just our two girls. I am a bit nervous for the delivery...I guess just hoping that it will be a little bit shorter and easier then the my previous two (18 hours and 8 hours). Also, I am so excited to meet our little baby BOY....I hope he looks just like his dad--and a double bonus if he has his dad's temperament (his family said they couldn't get him to stop giggling). (Savannah's given us a "run for our money"---and I'll be honest, she's a mini-Marianne...a bit mischievous and determined). =)

So...talk about NESTING. I think Rick is so happy to have our baby here, so his "honey-do" list from his "pregnant and nesting wife" will dissolve. We finally finished the girl's room.
The hardest part was sanding and painting all of the furniture white. My friend Kim helped a lot with painting the walls and giving me decorating tips.


I love their closet...at least their is a place for things (I'm not saying the things always get there)!



The baby's room is almost done (we are still hanging things up on the wall). The bedding I chose is a "construction theme" with tractors...just perfect with his "Schlofman Tractor" family history (thanks for the logo-Dad).

Rick put up the chair rail and made the frame around the "Schlofman Tractor" logo. He did great for his first time...he's becoming quite the "handy-man". This is one of those added bonus' I didn't know about when I married him!
Now it's just a waiting game...I go to the doctor next on Monday. I don't think she'll let me go much over a week before inducing me. Exciting times!

Some Highlights

Savannah turned 3 on January 3rd. She is such a handful and a joy! She is determined and "full of life"...always keeping us laughing. She loves babies, dressing up, and giving kisses (unless she has chapstick on her lips--you'll have to wait until it wears off). I sure love you, Savannah!

Rick and I celebrated our 7th Wedding Anniversary on January 19th. We've known each other now for 10 years...and they have been the best of my life. Thanks for being such a great husband--I love you!


Yes...it's true. In anticipation of our little boy (coming in the next week or two), I've become a "Mini-Van Mom". It's actually really fun to drive and very convenient....not to mention my 3 and 4 year old think it's the coolest thing ever! I think Rick is even growing on the idea. =)


Scott came home from Iraq. We feel so blessed to have him back in the United States with us...now we just have to get him to open a practice in the West (he is now in Washington DC)!
