"Remember to be gentle with yourself and others. We are all children of chance and none can say why some fields will blossom while others lay brown beneath the August sun. Care for those around you. Look past your differences. Their dreams are no less than yours, their choices no more easily made. And give, give in any way you can, of whatever you posses. To give is to love. To withhold is to wither. Care less for your harvest than for how it is shared and your life will have meaning and your heart will have peace." ~ Kent Nerburn

Happy 27 Months and 39 weeks Pregnant!

Wow! It is definetly summer in Chicago! We are experiencing record highs with heat! It has been a great excuse to stay indoors and get some rest for the babies arrival.
Lilliana turned 27 months old and Mommy hit the 39 week mark for baby. It still doesn't seem real that at anytime now we will be a family of 4..5 Aspen too:) What a blessing. We are so excited for this baby to join our family and become what others say is a "perfect unit." Mommy is feeling great! Feeling in such a great place and state of mind as the baby's birthday approaches. The neighbors say I have dropped and others are having a guessing pool as to what we are having, date and time:) Love the fun of all this and the love everyone feels for this baby already!
Lilliana has mellowed out a great deal in the last 3 weeks, not sure if her having alittle bacterial infection and high fevers had anything to do with it or just getting older. She is content with staying home and just playing with her babies and crafts. This has been another blessing to Mommy at this stage:) Not to mention Michael and I love to do imaginary play with her too! Last weekend we had a car show in our house:)
Lilliana loves to paint and do crafts and surprisingly for a 2 year old isn't messy at all! We just rearranged her play area in the basement and got her new things to fit her likings. It looks like a little classroom down there:) She is very organized already, kinda obsessive like her Mommy and Daddy.
Here are some pictures of our last month:) We look forward to our next post with our little boy or girl included.
Lots of love to you all,
Michael, Amanda, Lilliana,Baby 2 and Aspen
