I spent today taking it easy and trying to find small ways I could help out w/ out over doing it. Rich worked on the leaves a bit. This is actually one of my favorite jobs, I was bummed I can't help out much this year with the leaves!

Luke seems to have an overabundant amount of energy and noise coming out of him this weekend, the kid always has to be humming a tune, or making a sound of some sort, I feel guilty asking him to be quiet, but one can only handle so much noise, and learning a little self control isn't such a bad thing! I can't even imagine what the noise level in the house is about to go up to w/ a 3rd child!

I'm trying to tell myself to look forward to the quiet time in the hospital instead of just fretting that the kids can't visit the baby, and I think Luke is helping me reach that goal!! :) He is so sweet though, he's been giving my belly extra rubs and lots of love and hugs. It's interesting to see that he's responded the same way to this pregnancy as he did to Abby. Abby is interested and talks about the baby, but she's not as hands on w/ my belly as Luke is.

Well tomorrow is the last day w/ 2 kids! Life is about to change drastically!
