My dad's memorial service is this weekend. It is going to be very hard.

We are at 41 weeks today, and still no sign of Baby.

In other news, we went to a Mom to Mom sale today and stocked up on summer clothes for Xander. I so love those sales! Faster then hunting down 20 garage sales, and it's all infant/toddler clothes!

Happy Birthday Xander!!!

Dear baby Andrew,

You only have one day left to be born if you want to be counted on the census. Let's get  a move on, shall we?

Love,

Mommy
