And you thought they were called sheets...

Hmm, let's see if I even remember how to blog...



Kate has done wonderfully without her paci. In fact, she's moving right along in several areas. She'll be making a transition from her crib to a big girl bed coming soon. Tonight I went and picked up her bedding and now we just need a mattress. I know, I'm pretty sure I should have purchased a mattress before the bedding. But, that's no fun. Speaking of bedding, is M to the Izz-A the only person that calls bedding (sheets, comforter, etc) "bed clothes"? Yeah, that's what I thought. I tried putting into words how incredibly weird that sounds, but he just looked at me in his cute, southern boy confusion.



Hamp is growing and so am I. I can't wait to post my 6 month belly pic next week. You won't believe how my bump, my lovely lady bump, has grown. This pregnancy is speeding by and his room is currently still our officeguestroomthroweverythingweowninthere room. There's still plenty of time, I just remember having everything done by now when I was pregnant with Kate. The second time around is obviously a little different. I'm excited to set up his nursery and am really loving picking out all this boy stuff. And while we're talking about my lil' man, some of you wanted to know how we decided on his name, Hamp Aaron. It's pretty simple. Hamp is a name that we loved for its super-boyish, southern charm and Aaron is M to the Izz-A's middle name. Not to mention it goes well with Kate. So, there you have it. Nothing too deep. We're pretty simple folks, ya know.



Last weekend we took Kate to the circus. She really seemed to enjoy herself and particularly loved the elephants and trampoline stunts. I was a bit thrown off however, by one of the "sideshows", as they like to call them. The one I'm referring to had a lady harnessed to a rope with nothing but her ponytailed hair. She kept swinging back and forth over the audience. Mmkay, I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that that easily beats M to the Izz-A out with his "bed clothes" term on the weirdness scale. Heck, I mise well join the circus and swing by my navel, which has taken it upon itself to go ahead and pop on out way earlier than last time.
