Lot's of catching up to do...

I really can't believe it's been so long since I sat down to blog. I knew I would be slow but jeez!

Well, currently we are preparing for Baby Turnbow #2 to arrive. We have 5 weeks and 3 days till our due date, but I am thinking it will be sooner, only because Cassidy came 9 days early. Am I prepared? NO! :-) Well, yes and no. We have plenty of things, they're just in storage and need to come out and get washed, the bassinet needs to be reassembled, and Cassidy's name should probably be taken off of the nursery walls, but come on we'll get there!

Cassidy is excited to be a BIG sister and working on wearing panties. She has had some great days the past week and a half and some that we, yes, I blame me too, we have not focused and it's been much easier to wear Pull Ups/Diapers than to worry about accidents. However today we have really focused, stayed home, played, drank and ate lots and used the potty all day successfully. Here's to making it to bed time, CHEERS!

Cassidy cracks us up more and more everyday. For example yesterday we came home and a neighbor had people over so there were lots of cars on our cul-de-sac that we didn't know. She wanted to ride her four wheeler in the front yard but we said no since there were so many cars we didn't know, mostly b/c we wouldn't have been able to see her. She was a bit confused and said they were OK. Jason asked her if she knew who's car was the one with out a hubcap, she looked at him so seriously and said "Yes, Daddy, that is Susan's grandpa's", to which Jason and I both had to pick our jaws up and Jason then asked her who taught her to tell whoppers, to which she didn't reply. I am going to go with Aunt Donna on this one, after all, I know she'll be reading this :-)

She is very into talking about mom's growing chest, which is making me a bit nervous to hear what she will say to me when baby is here and hopefully nursing. Oh, the public humiliation!

Her favorite thing these days is Chapstik, a.k.a. Chalspik. She LOVES to be outside! We along with most everyone else are on summer break, or at least 2 week break. She will start back to her music classes in 2 weeks, but I am so glad we are getting this time together, she has grown so quickly and I know things will be changing so much more so soon, so I am embracing these moments!

Last week she had her Music School program where she sang "Be Our Guest" from Beauty and the Beast with 2 other girls. They were the first song and up on stage and a theatre here in town. Jason and I were a bit nervous that she would freeze when she got up there and saw the audience, but to our surprise, she did GREAT!! She sang so loud and well, she even paused a few times to say "Hi Mommy" and "Hi Daddy"! It was adorable!

That is enough of a catch up for now, I will try to get better at this especially with the changes so quickly happening!
