It's been a while...

It has been a year I guess since I updated last. I am officially bad at this! I am at home today with a semi-sick child, she seemed much sicker before I told her we could stay home :) I'm sure it was the Tylenol! So, anyway, a day at home, it is 9:00 and I've already gotten Lyons "too small" clothes and Mattie Anne's summer clothes cleaned out of the closet, made an Indian costume for Mattie Anne's thanksgiving dinner at school, and now I'm going to attempt updating the blog with pics from over the last couple of months. I'll keep all the other posts just to pics, but thought I'd update how we have been. I'm 35 weeks pregnant with Evans, he will be our 2nd little boy, third total. Mattie Anne turned 3 in August and Lyons is 1.5. Evans should be making his debut around the beginning of December. Matt is 1.5 years into his Pathology residency at LSU Health Sciences in New Orleans. He really enjoys the program. I am still at Humana Insurance company doing clinical review for pre-authorizations. I am enjoying the work and it was been especially nice with the pregnancy not having to be on my feet all day. Mattie Anne started Pre-K3 in August. It took her a while to get used to the new program, sitting still, coloring in the lines, tracing letters....a lot to take in for my little girl! She actually had a 9 weeks test too! I'm not so sure I like the program, I'm thinking it is a little on the too structured side but for now it will have to do. Lyons is walking/running, and making lots of noises, half the time I think they are supposed to be words, but there is still just a lot of screaming too :) He is completely oblivious to us having another baby, it will be fun to see how he reacts when Evans is born. Mattie Anne is very excited. She would look in my belly button and say she could see the baby, even would ask where his diaper was :). She did very well when Lyons was born so I assume she will do great again, and be even more of Mommy's helper. Evans he a mover and shaker! I'm a little nervous that the kid is never going to sleep because he doesn't do much of that now! We have had to have some ultrasounds to follow up on a couple of abnormalities, but the last ultrasound performed last week was perfect, nothing to worry about and he is already 5 lbs 6 oz, Not too much smaller than his sister when she was born! We have started going to First Baptist Church in Laplace and have found a lot of really sweet people, they have a young couples class that has several families with children the same ages as ours. Mattie Anne has started going to their AWANA program which has been a lot of fun. Well I guess that is enough for the words, I'll start loading the pics!
