Just One More Week!!!!!

Yup you read correctly folks! February 3 is just one little week away! Exciting!!!!
Soon our precious little Aiden will be here. And our only child Omar will no longer be an only child. To an extent I think he knows it too. This week he has been extra clingy to me. He is for the most part a Papa's boy. This week however he has been all mine!!!! When things go a rye he yelps for "MAMA!" not to mention he has literally hung on me to the point of almost pulling my pants down. Thank goodness I have been home in the comforts of our kitchen during these induced plumber crack incidents.

I really have been in FULL nesting mode as of late too. Imagine moving at 34 weeks was crazy. But still unpacking at 38 weeks--- almost unheard of! Swollen monster looking feet have not even been able to keep me down. I have been quite the productive busy bee though. I have completed the kids room and I am proud to say that the baby's crib is clutter free. True he will be sleeping in our room in his cradle regardless--- but you know nice to know if I so chose to place him in his crib I could. Our bedroom is complete (except for our huge bed board which we just found the missing piece to) art is on the walls and everything. Our new closet is complete thanks to Omar and my dad and stuffed with clothes, shoes, purses and jewelery courtesy of me! I like to tell myself that our kitchen is complete--- but its just a little white lie. Besides, we are planning to re-do it sooner than later so I have decided to not put too much energy into it.

Alas our towel bars have yet to be put up-- but again Omar promised I would have them before Aiden makes his grand entrance so I am hoping that happens soon too. Plus we still have some windows to be replaced, but that will not likely happen until the new little man comes. The office is currently what my mom likes to call "el cuarto de las papas" (the sack of potato room) which I am using to hoard all the clutter. It helps me feel like my house isn't a complete disaster. I am proud to say that we almost and I stress ALMOST box and plastic bin free. I cannot wait to have MY room (office) set up. Omar promised me that once it is set up, I will be allotted at least an hour of ME time to scrap book and just get away from the boys!!! Oh I can't wait for that reality to come true!

And of course... some pictures of little Omar at a birthday party. I can't wait to see who Aiden will look like!

My boys

Sorry for the hiatus

Hi all... it has been at least a month since I actively blog. Yes I have been cheating and starting an entry but not posting with hopes to sit and update you all on our riveting experiences. But alas-- no such luck. All I have is a bunch of unfinished entries with a couple of pictures and just a lot of crap I guess- lol.

We are almost done on this end and Aiden is almost here... February 3 could not come soon enough!!! I can imagine if I have negative energy and time right now once he has made his grand entrance it will diminish even more. But I am definitely trying. As a matter of fact--- this afternoon we are making our way to my mom and dad's house. Hopefully I can take advantage and catch up on this whole blog business than!!! Until than, just wanted to post a little something to let y'all know we were still alive and blogging (lol).

Oh and just a little tidbit of information--- little Omar is sleeping in his big boy bed and loving it. Well most of the time, every so often we get an early morning visitor at our door step. But he is more than welcomed into the bed. I complain, but I miss his cuteness first thing in morning. But oh to be able to stretch and conquer my side of the bed again... BLISS
